All up here fron Edinburgh (5) and one from Belfast could have and would have made the game in Widnes tonight no bother as we were down by lunchtime. Lennigans gaff and arrogance last night caused us to cancel hotels and rearrange plans which after all we didn't have too. The whole thing is a complete nonsense .

See you all next week

Why are latics reserves allowed to play their fixtures at the DW???

That is really out of order IMO!! ????

Just a thought

Should tonight's game be considered our home game and should we still be going to Widnes in July.

Widnes should get a benefit from this and with us unable to entertain them at the DW then the correct decision for me is that we give away home advantage to them.

Or is this the case now

One point from this sorry shambles is , why is some of my season ticket money being given to Widnes as compensation? The DW Stadium company should be paying all compensation ! So Widnes sorry but you are not getting any more money from me as apparently I am already paying you.
Just to say don't blame Widnes one little bit as they have been treated very badly as have the fans from both clubs
A sad day for Wigan Warriors all round

They don't. They did play one game at U17/U18 level v Southampton in a cup match in January though (I was at Rigalettos that night) as they were the rules for that cup comp.

We were better off when Latics were in the Premiership. They only played 19 home League games (23 now) and entered the cup competitions at a later stage. Also they got a lot more money from broadcasting rights which made pitch maintenance better. If they go down with no parachute payments left it will leave a big hole to fill and there will be less money to maintain the stadium.

was a complete Bellend. if the fans had stormed the pitch or we had broke the cap, fair enough, but dock wigan points because the football team have demanded the pitch.


lets make the fans suffer because of a alternate sports.

is leaguefreak Daryl Powell :p

These are two reasons not to trust people.
1. We don't know them.
2. We do know them.
