The lack of rights I suppose
Why say that when the BBC show the CC?
Sorry Josie I meant to say C4 don’t have the rights
My error too Alan, missed the Channel 4 bit 🫣
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

I would say that very loosly given that they are only showing one game

Very true but I thought they were showing the game on Saturday 🤔

Just checked & it is showing on BBC2 at 4.45 HKR v Leigh 😊

As far as I can see that is the only game they are showing, unless I am missing the listing somewhere, which really is a poor show as they obviously wanted to keep the rights to it

It's no difference to previous years in the CC, is it? The BBC pick a game to screen. They don't (and surely never have) screened all games?

So you can't watch the Wigan game on BBC i player?

But I think there are local radio links via the BBC Sport page.

I don't have Wigan TV!

There is always Milko I think and eventually You Tube high lights.

I thought Wigan TV would have jumped on this as no channels showing it would have boosted sales for the site
