That's just you. Whereas actual Saints fans just find it embarrassing for Wigan and the RFL. As I said earlier, it makes no difference to us when we play, therefore there is no reason for us to be "peed off."

Yet here you are still waffling on about it.

Can we keep this to the WC Challenge please and not ANOTHER thread drift about certain posters - I have an extremely low boredom threashold and have reached it this week with two threads going the same way, thanks.

Now South are the Champions of the NRL I'm sure Shaun Wane will want to win this one more than ever. I do hope we don't go OTT with powerhouse rugby and end up being penalised to death.
If Waney & Co get it right Saturday could be a good night for Wigan.

As the dates and venues for the other 2 games have now been confirmed, any idea where you will be playing your game yet?

With each club having to put up £175k to stage the game neither Saints or Warrington will move their fixtures (Friday being a good corporate sell for Warrington and Sunday being the climax to the weekend's fixtures for Saints as the real WCC).

Wigan will have to rely upon the goodwill of the football club to have the Dave Whelan available for the Saturday match otherwise Widnes and Leigh are under consideration as alternatives.

I hope Rogues is reading this after posting:

Awkward

When the WCC has been and gone us, Saints and Wire will be left with catch up games. 2014 we had to play v Widnes mid week then Wakey the following Sunday. We usually win at Wakey but lost after holding and 6-18 lead at one point.
That was 3 games in 8 days.

Will all three clubs have to do this or will they be making specific arrangements seeing as the 3 game WCC seems to way we are going.

Thanks for this, I was wondering what was going to happen.

Have Wigan paid £175k to 'host' this game?

Whose bothered when we play, seems Saints fans are!they get all the Wiganers banned on their board and then all they talk about is Wigan,

The Saints mods have an allergy to the ban button tbh.

Rogues must have gone on holiday or something ...

Yep.

He's certainly gone very quiet on this issue hasn't he? Haha

Can see SKY conveniently televising a the Latics match the following Monday. I'm sure they did this when there was the potential for a clash in the play offs.

When tickets going on sale?

Shame it's not being done like the Magic Weekend, all 3 at either Goodison or Anfield, in finishing order, Wire first up then us and Saints as the main event.

They've got a game on Tuesday 24th as well so that isn't an option. Only way round it I can see so that we play at DW is if Latics kick off at lunch time on the Saturday with our game at 7/8pm to give time to turn the pitch round.

Just cant see this game being at home. Im sure when i was looking at season tickets there was a section saying Wigan may take a home game 'on the road' next season.

I don't know but I will guarantee that some of the fans at all three clubs will complain about
a) The price of the tickets
b) They can't have their seat that they normally sit in with their season ticket.

Are Wigan still definitely playing on the Sunday Rogues? Is Dave Whelan still dictating when Saints play?

Or is that all a load of tosh?

Already answered on your own board.

I'll try and get to all 3, should be good.

I'm definitely going to the Warrington and Saints games. Will probably go to the Wigan one too depending on where they are made to play it.
