Where's the Named Squad for Saturday?

Post by Wandering Warrior »

Am I missing summat or has the squad for Saturday not been named yet?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but the naming of the squad is usually 48 hours before the game?

It's not been up yet, I've checked several times :(
Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

Looks well when the team is announced on the BBC website before the Official Wigan one! :(

To be honest they're more interested in bumming the game up if you look on the website. I'm waiting for the Queen to endorse it!!!?! :D
