Does this mean that the game over in France is scratched?? news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/front_page/8622315.stm Can't see how that it can't be if the French teams playing over here are struggling that we arent getting over there.

not yet the Rugby league may say get on the coach tomorrow
no flights until 0700 Friday, but the Volcano is still erupting, hopefully the ind direction will change.

Salford are flying out tomorrow afternoon from Leeds so it would seem touch and go whether they will be able to fly. Game possibly off because of a volcano eruption! Unbelievable.

Would we have got bonus points on the prediction league for that one



Can't see how the RL could force us to travel to the game by coach, we may as well forfeit as can't see how you'd be able to say it was fair preperation, though again can't see how you could reschedule a game in the South of France with the full SL program ahead.

Rock, paper scissors anyone

if the game gets called of when is it most likely to be played? midweek game in france will surely not help are preparation for the weekend game

as the 5th round is due to be played in 3 weeks time but before this we have castleford away and then it magic weekend the following weekend...

thats what it may come to, imagine Saints knocked out as they picked scissors and Toulouse went for Rock

NOW NOW JUST BECAUSE THEY ARE SCOUSERS DOESN'T AUTOMATICALLY MEAN THEY'D GO FOR A BLADE

Mrs Michigan Red works at the airport and she has just been informed that there will be no UK flights till at least 7am tomorrow but that the likelyhood of that being realistic are remote and the delays are going to knock on for a good few hours when or if they do open tomorrow.

HAVING HAD OUR CARCASSONNE FLIGHT CANCELLED,SPENT ALL DAY REBOOKING AND CHANGING CAR HIRE,NOW GOING TO NIMES FRIDAY( I HOPE). TO BE FAIR RYANAIR REALLY HELPFUL,ONCE YOU GET THROUGH ON THE PHONE. NEXT AVAILABLE FLIGHT TO CARCASSONNE IS SUNDAY. LETS HOPE THE TEAM DO THE CLUB PROUD!

Proof of bad handling at airports? Get 'em onside!


Meanwhile, if everyone could kindly start blowing in a north-easterly direction...

Ryanair no flights until at least 1pm tomorrow.

Good to know RyanAir helpful, Lou Kate.
Stops you writing to complain,again !

Are they going direct to perpigan?
Hope they dont go by coach our travel sickness record isnt the best when travelling 100 miles on a coach never mind to south of france

No think it might be Girona mate but I'm not totally sure.

That's what they have made Leigh do, for their tie at Limoux, on Saturday. They left this afternoon. They also made Dewsbury do that, for their Championship fixture at Toulouse, a few weeks ago, when there was an air traffic controllers' dispute.

Ours nearly off for snow and yours for a volcano!!! You couldnt make this up!!!

So hope you guys can get there!

[iI keep waiting for someone to come up with the Global Warming crap...[/i

NO FLIGHTS until at least 7 pm tonight so our boys wont be flying out this afternoon then

BREAKING NEWS: NO FLIGHT FROM ENGLAND UNTIL 1:00AM SATURDAY

From the BBC site

Leigh travel to face Limoux on Saturday, with Salford visiting Catalans Dragons the following day.

"We are monitoring the situation and keeping in contact with the clubs," said a Rugby Football League spokesman.

After their flight to Carcassonne was cancelled on Thursday, Leigh opted to drive to Folkestone for an overnight stay before boarding the Eurostar train to France on Friday morning.

Leigh chief executive Allan Rowley said: "Today's volcanic eruption has caused chaos across Europe and unfortunately it became apparent at lunchtime that flying to France was no longer an option.

"Today has been a real challenge for us but, in the end, happily we managed to find some transport and are now on our way to Carcassonne."


so it appears that Leigh decided on it rather than the Rugby league.

Science and scientists and facts and figures are all wrong then?? I suppose babies are still delivered by storks round your way then??
