An all Lancashire tie taken to Yorkshire?
An all SL tie taken to a ground not fit for the Championship? |

I reckon we're gonna end up having to ask the Premier League for special dispensation to play in that Saturday 2.30 slot. In theory it shouldn't be a problem as they are going to have much longer to set up ready for Latics on Sunday than they do when it's 8pm Friday 3pm Saturday. Whether it works out that easy or not is a different issue!

For the first time in a while I'm not scared of us playing St Helens, if we continue playing to our full potential we should win by 18+ points.

I think the following games will be televised
Wigan Vs Saints on Sky Friday night.
Cats Vs Wire Saturday afternoon on the Beeb.
Leigh Vs Leeds Sunday afternoon on the Beeb.
Whelan will not allow Warriors to play on the Sat & IL will not want to give up home advantage. The Beeb have the schedules drawn up months in advance and will not change unless it was a very special occasion.
So Friday night on Sky it is.

Would remove all problems, and tbh, makes the most sense, given our potentially awkward stadium situation.'"
If they did Wigan should have to forego their TV money because they'd quite possibly be forcing the RFL to breach their contract with the BBC. |

The Catalan v Wire game will probably be a better game anyway. |

I can't see the BBC giving up this game easily, to be honest. |

take it to the moon if we have to but avoid the screwfix at all costs as we were treated like animals by their over zealous brain dead gorillas ( stewards) |

May just be me, but my impression of the BBC choosing which game to show is akin to the selection of the Holy Stone of Clonrichert as a class two relic.

Can't see the Beeb shelling out to send their entire production team to Perpignan. They'll leave that option to Sky. |

| Do you think if Wigan RL did a very public grovel on bended knees with much wringing of hands,Whelen may relent and give permission for it to be played on the Saturday.
If it was public enough he may not want to come out of it in a bad light,giving permission would give him the impression of a hero coming to the rescue.

Also as another incentive we Wigan R/L supporters could tell him that if he gave us a free ticket and a pie each,we would go and watch the Latics on the Sunday.

That would be an ecumenical matter. |

WTF?
Suck it up. You don't have a stadium so you play where one is available. Stop moaning about it. |
