Gutted as I paid for SL+ as there was no mention anywhere of coverage on Wigan TV

Both me and my dad had already paid for SL+ because there was no news about wigan tv showing it. Absolute joke of a service, sneaky trick only putting it on last minute. They won't be getting my money when it's time to renew. In certain areas the clubs run very unprofessionally.

It's not really a 'sneaky trick only putting it on last minute', cos all it means is fewer people watch it. I checked around 1 pm. I even looked at Joe Mills' FB page. No mention. So I forgot about the game and occupied myself with other things this afternoon. Only to, later, spot this thread. And now I saw the last ten minutes.

I would imagine a more likely explanation is that it was last-minute relenting from Leeds to allow Wigan TV to use their footage.

Annoying and very glad I didn't take up the livestream for £9.99 (I was sorely tempted).
It really is the attention to detail in public relations that is lacking.

TBF, WiganTV is good VFM generally, when did they know that they could broadcast it live - I was surprised that SuperLeague+ didn't have exclusive rights or even RHino's TV themselves.

This could have been a positive for the club!!

Pure speculation on my part, but it fits the facts.
