In case you are unaware, the final game next week, at home v Salford, has been moved to 8pm Thursday.

BBC website still has it as Friday, but Sky have decided to move it.

I noticed this post game on sky, is this confirmed or a mistake from sky? i say this because the live on sky section still has the game for friday, same with the warriors site

Will be trying to watch it on my phone in San Diego....

They were announcing it at the stadium tonight. I am not pleased, but there you are.

It always seems to be our games that are moved with such short notice!

Several people I’ve spoke to won’t be able to attend due to work commitments & a couple I know are taking their disabled son to a Take That tribute act as he likes their music & booked Thursday instead of Friday

I forgot, some fans who travel & book a hotel for overnight stay are now having to see if they can change their stay from Friday to Thursday. Probably won’t make much of a difference but it’s the hassle!

For once it’s worked in our favour as we are watching Book of Mormon Friday afternoon in Manchester so given the state of trains it could have been a bit of a tight fit to do both so like I say for once I’m happy with the change

Just found out about the change sitting on platform 5 at North Western this morning . Now on the Avanti to Edinburgh trying to change hotels trains and flights from Belfast. The trials of being at the beck and call of Sky . I know they call the tune but 6 days notice is a bit of a cheek methinks .

EW

Surely they have to also move the Hull KR game to Thursday or else they could field a weakened team on the Friday if Wigan win and the league is gone?

They’d only drop to 3rd if they lose and Warrington win their next 2 and overcome a big points difference of 82.

Its odd as it takes some of the drama out of the final games.
