Why does it say we are away to leigh wednesday 26th june for 1895 cup on the website on the fixture list.
Yet under news heading we are at home to eagles as said.
atrociously run website.

It could be raised with the Club, quite genuinely, but I'm not sure that the feedback would be welcome.

Anyone who spots mistakes is a moaner ....
That mistake wasn't there before a moaner created it.

When I've asked the club why fixtures have not been amended properly (or timeously) in the past, they've told me the RFL is responsible for that part of the site. It is created by a direct feed from the RFL.

The fixture list still shows the Newcastle game as being played on 23rd June when it should be 28th July.

The Whitehaven game is listed as being played at Featherstone but the Newcastle games is still shown as being played at the Keepmoat (incorrectly).

The Dons issued a statement about these two games at the beginning of May but it isn't possible to view news items announced prior before 31st May now as clicking the website link to earlier news items results in an error message.

Quite how the fixtures page shows we've got an away game at Leigh on 26th June is impossible to fathom.

There is no wonder fans become confused and annoyed by the poor quality of communications.

The statement was released on the Dons Official site on 30 April 2019.

Total advantage of home draw lost, hopefully Wembley will be free

I think it serves them bloody right ...
This has been a problem for a while now ...unsolved.
Apart from the fact that Eagles have been given a leg up, revenue is lost.
So any delusions of substantial earnings are pie in the sky.

I agree SO exactly right.
The unsolved problem of probably 6/7 yrs has now cost them money in
this cup game as it will in the league matches.
Nonsensical but who are we to moan.
