I think your right. SKY will want a game to show. Remember our infamous game in the fog at Saints!

The KCom pitch has under soil heating which has been on all week so there shouldn't be a problem as far as that is concerned but the concern is whether Warrington will be able to make the trip over the Pennines.

The current forecast (for hull) is no more snow, but no real thaw either.

So it looks like nothing much will change in the next 36 hours.

Big difference between the pitches though as KCOM has under soil heating so the pitch shouldn't be frozen and would think the pitch at caravan park will almost certainly be frozen in places hence concern for player welfare.

Though if the temps are not any higher tomorrow night it certainly could be classed as not putting player welfare first.

The pitch might be playable and the walkways safe, but as I get older watching rugby in arctic conditions becomes less and less appealing!
Let's play them midweek in Summer with Danny Houghton back!

Same. Getting fed up of shivering all the way through a match at Kcom.

As things stand the M62 is closed and other travel is seriously affected.

Consideration must surely go to how Warrington and their fans can get here safely and also get home tomorrow night after the game?

As long as the team can get across I doubt whether the powers that be will give a monkey's about travelling supporters.

No doubt the consideration for fans attending the game come way down the list compared to Sky having a live game to show.
I know the club will have corporates booked in, etc, but it's going to be a pretty miserable night if it's as cold as it is at the moment.

Currently forecast to be dry but feeling like minus six degrees with gusts of around 30mph.

Not going to be a classic game, lets face it.

The forecast is pretty similar to Leeds who have already postponed their game and who also have undersoil heating. Leeds will get an advantage ahead of next week game with a week to prepare and recover from injuries.

People stranded in their cars on the M62 near Saddleworth overnight - surely its not safe for Warrington fans and team to travel?

According to someone on the Warrington forum, their team is already in Hull (possibly having come over by rail).

Pitch inspection this morning apparently.
