If the Huddesfield game has a lower attendance than would be expected and the challenge cup game played at a different venue, will Leneghan be able to claim compensation off the soccer team for the loss of revenue? THE WHOLE SCENARIO STINKS!!!!.The fans are being treated like crap.

Especially, considering that the HJ stadium looked far worse in the recent SKY t.v. game. Yet I have not heard that the wire are looking to resurface their pitch! :conf:

I did wonder if anyone else shared the ground! :doz:

But my point is.....it's saying that it's fine for the rugby to play on a sh7thole of a pitch - just as long as the footballers have exactly the pitch "they" want!

Is this the case during the early and late season, when the latics "play", the pitch is cut accordingly to the soccer - bugger the rugby! Is this the reason Taffy Jones was not employed by the club when it moved to the JJB - the latics groundsman was?

To a "certain" extent, this sounds like the disgraceful way Hunslet were treated by there soccer counterparts at Elland Road!

Is history repeating at the JJB for Wigan I wonder! :eh:
