just a quick moan ! The club have just posted fixture changes in August. I arranged a break to return on Friday 2nd August so I could go to Huddersfield game. Its been moved to Thursday 1st so will miss it. My son, for whom I buy a still non received season ticktet, will now miss Hudds and Leigh game as he works away in week.
Surely there could be better liaison and planning with Sky. Ticket office tell me I should get my 4 season tickets before London game - they will be asking for cash for next seasons tickets before I receive this seasons! Woeful! Glad team is better organised than ticketing is

Three August fixtures changed

THREE WIGAN WARRIORS FIXTURES HAVE BEEN SELECTED FOR EXCLUSIVE SKY SPORTS COVERAGE IN AUGUST INCLUDING OUR POSTPONED ROUND 2 CLASH AGAINST LEIGH LEOPARDS.

Sky Sports have selected our Round 20 home clash against Huddersfield Giants and our Round 21 visit to Leeds Rhinos for exclusive coverage in August, in addition to our rearranged Round 2 home clash against Leigh Leopards which was postponed due to our involvement in the Betfred World Club Challenge.

Wigan Warriors and Leigh Leopards will both play their Round 20 fixtures on Thursday 1 August to maximise their recovery and preparation time before the Warriors face Huddersfield Giants at The Brick Community Stadium on Tuesday 6 August and Leeds Rhinos at AMT Headingley Stadium on Saturday 10 August.

Sky Sports will continue to provide live coverage of every Betfred Super League fixture – with fans accessing content via Sky Sports+ from August 8.

There was always the chance that after June/July fixtures will be changed.

Think the Huddersfield home game has been moved to be able to accommodate the rearranged Leigh game on the Tuesday to give the players as much time to recover between games.

Why couldn't the Leigh game have been played on the international weekend?

Short turn around for Huddersfield and Leigh (probably even shorter for Leigh themselves) and a short turn around before away to Leeds who will have had a nice long rest.

Wigan Warriors and Leigh Leopards set for gruelling schedule after fixture rearrangement

The two teams will play three times in just over a week after August's early schedule was confirmed

Wigan Warriors and Leigh Leopards will play their rearranged Super League match on a TUESDAY, it has been confirmed. The round two fixture did not take place at the time due to the Warriors' involvement in the World Club Challenge, leaving the clubs looking for a date to play the game in the future.

It has now been revealed it will take place on August 6th which will see both teams play three times in eleven days. As part of Super League's fixture announcements for the beginning of August, it has been confirmed both teams will play the Tuesday before, with Leigh travelling to Castleford Tigers and Wigan hosting Huddersfield.

They will then play each other on the Tuesday before returning to action at the weekend. Wigan will actually play three times in ten days, travelling to Leeds Rhinos on the Saturday, while Leigh will play Hull FC on the Sunday.
