Very true.
I have said before that what i'm spending on the family being at the game could turn two weeks in Florida into three if they want to start being daft with fixtures like this.

I feel sorry for any French fans who were messed around by Wigan changng a fixture but two wrongs would not make it right.

For gods sake what are they waiting for to announce this decision.
Or are they trying to make special arrangments for all the complaints they'll be getting?

It's been mentioned so many times already, CST and our club announced trips to Perpignan. Make changes? I've made no changes, the airline made them without my input.

Changing the day and changing the venue are two totally differeny things. Plus I think it was SKY who moved that and not the club.

My money is on...
Everyone who has already made plans being ignored and "fobbed" off with the so called solution of coaches from Perpignan.

What this does not address is the fact that had they said Montpellier people would have chosen to fly to airports around Montpellier. Or would have had the choice to make that decision.
If your stying in Spain you could easily be facing a three or four hour trip each way on the day of the match - which I doubt you would have chosen to do.

What will happen in the event that someone is due to arrive on the Sunday who would make the game in Perpignan but would not reach montpellier in time.
Will they get a refund of their tickets as they seem likely to be renderred useless.


This whole thing stinks.
if this is moved, as it looks like it will be, what exactly was the point of the club asking what people thought? They would not have listened. So presumably all it would have been for was for someone at the RFL (not the club) to see how many people they would be annoying and the likely cost of keeping them quiet.

The real cost will come next time we played them on a date likely to be cold and wet when an awful lot of people will just think they'll give it a miss.

Is this announcement going to be anytime this year? Would be nice to know if ive got to waste money trying to get myself to Montpellier!!!

Great Username

Beat me to it

We're waiting for you to come out of it pal!

That aimed at me?

if the cap fits....





She's ready to go

Sorry mate was i too quick for you?
You'll have to look up what a dutch cap is suppose then you'll catch up.

obvioulsy the old ones aren't always the best ones - especially when the joke is older than you are eh?

brilliant moan topic...moan moan...

Any decision on the venue yet Mick?

Wigan's club refused the decision of Catalans to move the game at Montpellier

Again is there a link to confirm that game still in Perpignan?

Good news, if true. changing the goal posts and putting so many ppl out would have alienated some fans and reduced our following in future years.

Hopefully the french can organise this game properly next year, I wouldn't mind a trip to montpellier.

The longer this went on the more it had to stay in Perpignan. I don't get why this couldn't have all been sorted out in time for the fixtures coming out so they could have played the game in Montpellier without any problems whatsoever.

I'm sure if that have had happened every Wigan fan would have been pleased to visit a new city.

Well done Wigan, common sense has prevailed, I am so pleased they have listened to the fans!

More positives from the club!

I presume Catalans can't just go over the top of Wigan and say they're still moving it?

I suppose it wouldn't make sense anyway because in the long term it would cost them a fortune with the amont of Wiganers who wouldn't go again.

Belting.. Ill have to get on that trip now its been confirmed.

I wonder who'll be the first to have risked booking a hotel in montpellier

Glad still in Perps for this year, but start to get next years fixtures aranged for Montpellier.
