Wigan v Salford match rescheduled

Wigan's fixture against Salford at the DW Stadium originally scheduled for Friday August 12 has been changed to Sunday August 14, 3pm kick off following consultation between the two clubs and the RFL.

Speaking about the move, Wigan Warriors Chairman Ian Lenagan said: "Since Wigan Athletic are scheduled to play their first home Barclay's Premiership game of the season on the Saturday, we have agreed to move our fixture against Salford City Reds to Sunday afternoon.

"We are sorry for any inconvenience this late change may bring for fans but, with Wigan continuing in the Carnegie Challenge Cup, no other dates were practical."

it is getting rather annoying. Games at DW, I couldn't give a flying crow about, but I think Edinburgh Warrior had booked a hotel based on the announcer saying that the game was on 12th? An announcement made in spite of knowing that the Latics game was being played weeks ago.

And ya wonder why people see our sport as "Jokey Touch Rugby".

I must admit I enjoy Sunday afternoon rugby.

I must admit I enjoy Sunday afternoon rugby.

as do I, take your time getting there, and back, down the pub etc etc... What i don't enjoy is a lack of organisation...

[platt-warrior]

I agree but watching a game 3parts pissed is also got a lot going for it

[FROM A TO B]

Great, another game I'll have to miss.
Made plans around another event I'm at to get to the game on the Friday, but can't make the Sunday.
Sooner the lactates get relegated the better!

But look on the bright side, Isaac Birchall aged 2years and 3 months can come to his third live game as his grandmother allows me to fetch him to 3pm kick offs and remember this is a lad who already has been trained to shout 'cmon wiggin ugby' whenever he sees the same shirt on tv that he is wearing.

Twice in one day I've been p*ssed off about a fixture announcement... Had a top day planned for the Salford game, was going to play golf, have some tea in wigan then off to the match...
