Josie,
I have lost track on this game. Will we still be able to listen to Nikki and Mills or us that lost as well?
Who is Nikki? Do you mean Bilko? I would think so 🤔

I suppose the question is now, as Leigh were the first club to have a game on Monday, how will other clubs react? Will the Ourleague thing just die a death now?

There are 5 games played this Monday Warrington is on SKY .Our League should keep going until ALL restrictions are lifted for the sake of the fans. Leigh is the only club as yet to pull the plug as all their season ticket holders can watch the game live. Wigan changed the fixture to Monday to let Leigh get fans in with the lifting of restrictions so now Leigh kicked us in the b##ll#.

Yes it shows what peer pressure can do.

For those that have not received an email.


The Our League offer was initially only set to cover the initial 'behind closed doors' period of the season, but it was agreed last week that games under restricted capacities during the initial return of fans (17th May to 20th June) can now also be broadcast to season ticket holders at the discretion of the home club. Wigan Warriors and Leigh Centurions have mutually agreed that it is right for season ticket holders of both clubs to be able to watch Monday’s game, which will also see a home-only crowd inside Leigh Sports Village.

Please note that at any home game in future during this limited attendance period, if away supporters are able to attend limited attendance games by government agreement and because a home stadium is large enough to allow excess free capacity over the number of home season ticket holders, it is likely that the home team may make seats available to away supporters to purchase. In this case, televising free of such games to season ticket holders will not necessarily be available since all home season ticket holders can be accommodated in the stadium and away season ticket holders can purchase tickets, albeit sometimes limited in number. Each game will be assessed sensibly based upon stadium circumstances.

This current late change in arrangements for Monday’s match is caused by the evolving nature of government rules in respect of away supporters only notified on Friday to Super League and its variable effect on different stadiums and clubs during this limited attendance period.

Just as with the re-arrangement of the game to Monday agreed speedily by the Wigan and Leigh clubs, this new arrangement shows the excellent cooperation between the two clubs and their concern for both sets of season ticket holders to see this local-derby game.

Supporters who have already signed up for Our League and activated their previously supplied code for 2021 do not have to take any further action in order to watch the game – simply log back in to your Our League account and coverage will begin shortly ahead of the 7:45pm kick-off on Monday via the relevant link on the site's 'live streaming' section.

Though Our League's live coverage remains exclusive to season ticket holders during the period of this bonus extension but as detailed above, non-season ticket holders can still take advantage of Wigan’s free commentary service with Joe Mills and Andrew Rimmer (Bilko) via the Club’s official website.

Wigan TV, whilst contractually unable to show live Betfred Super League action shown on Sky, is also permitted to provide subscribers with brief highlights, extended highlights and a full match re-run in the days following the match.

Wigan Warriors will confirm details of future Our League live streams for season ticket holders as and when they are confirmed or not by the relevant host club over the course of the next month.

Sky tv rights I’d assume they can show it after a few days can’t they but live doubtful.

The Our league thing is a perk I suppose but I think the whole deal with this issue is that we’ve got quite used to seeing all games on the tv mainly by sky or the app,guess we will have to get used to the old ways soon enough is they do lift the restrictions on crowds.

Rfl and the clubs is missing a trick here.

We are still very much in the throws of a pandemic, they should have done this service for the entire season for those that have chosen to by a season ticket but may be prevented from attending due to any local lockdowns that come in or even if someone ends up isolating.

I do hope next season they just do the our league as a season ticket bonus.

Interested in a season ticket but not sure you can make every home game. Don't worry we have you covered with exclusive access to the match via our league.

Might make more people interested in ST who stopped because of Thursday games etc
