Wigan knew the challenge cup date could clash with Latics even before the last round but seem to have made no effort to plan an alternative.

So you said this.

But the BBC don't screen sports on a Friday night (I don't remember them ever doing so, so it isn't a shock, like).

So shut up.

Why on earth the RFL did not insist Wigan make contingency plans in the event of this happening I do not know, given that it happened two years ago in the playoffs.

No it didn't. It happened 4 years ago.

well that's even worse then! If Whelan can't see how much extra cash he'll make from 20k supporters eating and drinking in his stadium i'm shocked!

That sort of money is bus fare compared to Latics staying in the PL.

If Whelan has told Martinez that he won't let RL be played the day before a Latics game, it certainly does.

I don['t know that as fact, but it certainly wouldn't surprise me.

I am totally fed up with all this fiasco now. Just wish the RFL would announce another venue for the Saturday and get on with it. In my eyes Wigan W. have lost the home advantage by not being able to fulfill the fixture at the time they have been given. Why should everyone have to wait at the beck and call of DW. Oh. yes it's Wigan Rugby they do what they want. For god's sake get on with it RFL and announce somewhere for it to be played.

Fully agree the RL should just ask one simple question as they have had ample time "Can you play the match on Saturday"
If yes fine lets get it on?
If No then fine the match will now be played at Langtree Park
