it was announced at the end of our match.

I'm sure it was on here that Whelan had said our game would be Friday night as Lenegan had agreed to cover costs for the stadium turnaround? Anyways, means I might actually be able to attend the game if it's on Sunday!

Not according to this


Obviously SKY must have re-scheduled away from Friday & Saturday only.

It's Sunday so we can have a full week off.

that was for the weekafter. If you had won today you would have had a week off and then played on the Friday due to Latics fixtures.

See the lengths we go to in order to be helpful to others...

Shuddersfield have the same problem as us with a football game on Saturday. Eddie's "24 hour" rule doesn't exist. I'm glad we're Sunday and not Friday as the team need the extra two days.

I wonder if Catalan will make the trip over early in the week and go into camp, a bit like they did last time they played us! It worked for them last time, they blew us off the park !

Massive improvements needed for next Sunday, not just from the players but from everyone connected with the club. We need to get behind the team and show them we still believe they can do it. Saints gave everything today and only beat us by 8 points, but we havnt turned into a bad team by getting beaten today. The problem seemed they just looked flat and didnt look like they were up for the challenge. I dont believe they were tired and unfit, i just dont think they were motivated to get stuck in and win the ruck. We actually looked like a team that hadnt played together before and had no game plan. A worrying thing is why Madge took Tommy off when Deaks was clearly having a shocker. It didnt make sense to leave Deaks on when the scousers kept targeting him in defence and probably the best defensive half back in the world was sat on the touchline. I think this coming sunday will actually show just how good a coach Madge actually is. Will he drop Deaks and maybe play Lockers or Tommy at half back or will he gamble with the structure he had today? Either way after the Catalans game theres no second chance and it could be his last game in charge.
