Wigan V Bradford U19 academy game : Thu Sep 23, 2021 11:15 am  

According to the official club web site the game is on Saturday at 3 p.m. which clashes with the Latics game at the DW. https://wiganwarriors.com/fixtures/under-19s However on the RFL referees appointments page the game is listed to be played on Sunday at 2 p.m. at thee Arena, which would make more sense. https://www.rugby-league.com/governance ... pointments

Sadly correct Eric.

I’m stumbled across last weeks live coverage of the 19’s game by chance, part way through the game. Not a sausage on social media about it being on from what I could see.

It has to improve that. If communicating that is beyond us as a club then things need shaking up.

It’s not hard is it? It’s a cheap easy way of generating revenue as well. A bit of free publicity via a social media post and you may well get a few extra fans. Quick, easy, cheap wins and the club just can’t be bothered with that either

Apparently a few Wigan fans turned up on Saturday for the match only to be turned away for obvious reasons . This is so poor from the clubb it defies description.

I would like to think the club will post a general apology to these fans but I won't hold my breath . They are probable still unaware of the situation

To provide updates on these fixtures is just so simple to do. I bet they’d have plenty of volunteers if they asked for somebody to update their social media channels for them with the date/time of these kick offs. Sadly they’d probably forget to update the volunteer.

It’s terrible, hope they took their names with the offer of some form of compensation.

Enjoyed it.
Went to watch young Nicholson and I wasn’t disappointed.
Some decent rugby and a few really good tries.
Bradford scored a couple of good tries too late on but we were just a bit too strong and fast for them.

I think the final score was 40-18 but I could be wrong.
