That’s the advantage of a week off, it is unlikely that there will be any injury dramas.

I guess the only question is around Byrne or Walters or Hill?

I think it will be. For some reason MP likes Byrne.

Personally I think he's below the standard of the rest, but :

1. I don't see him day in day out
2. I don't know his salary

Definitely not Hill, he’s knackered after 10 minutes.

Strong as possible for me, and i think that only leaves 1 decision to possibly make

Miski on wing only if 100% fit, else Eckersley

rest remain the same with Dupree, Mago, Bryne and Forber on the bench

Have I missed something with Farrell?

Walters is named in the second row and no mention of Farrell.

Have we had these tea-time kick-offs in previous years? Really don't like them. If 3 pm is a normal time for most Saturday games, why does this have to be different?

Also thinking about GF tickets. I have zero faith that I can get a ticket from Wigan (unless queuing at the ticket office is an option) under the current set-up, so might as well go straight to the SL site. I see no mention of GF tickets on the club website (of course I realise that we are not in the Final yet).
