Wendall Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Fixture Change Warrington Wolves' away fixture against Harlequins RL will now be played on Friday 3rd September, kick-off 8pm at Twickenham Stoop (originally Saturday 4th). The rescheduling of this fixture follows police advice given to the Harlequins club. The original date would have clashed with the Premiership Rugby London Double Header at Twickenham Stadium, and could not go ahead for safety reasons. Please note, as with all fixtures taking place on the final weekend of the season, this match is subject to SKY selection which will be made no later than August 22nd. http://www.warringtonwolves.org/fixture-change-3585 So its clear now who wears the boots down in Twickers!

gingerjon Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 So its clear now who wears the boots down in Twickers! You do understand that it's to avoid clashing with 50,000 people getting to and from Twickenham Stadium don't you? Pleased with the change though - I should be able to make the game now. My second match of the season! Build a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.

Wendall Posted July 29, 2010 Author Share Posted July 29, 2010 Yeah can understand why its being moved but if the boot was on the other foot do you think the RU mob would change dates? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve May Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Yeah can understand why its being moved but if the boot was on the other foot do you think the RU mob would change dates? I think they would if the police suggested it. English, Irish, Brit, Yorkshire, European.

Carnie's Cover Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 well when we are able to fill twickers for a double header game that clashes with the quins playing a home union game we will see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gingerjon Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Yeah can understand why its being moved but if the boot was on the other foot do you think the RU mob would change dates? They sort of have to if the police tell them to. If the Challenge Cup final was on at Twickenham Stadium, Quins RU would not be playing at the Stoop. Build a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day.

Exiled Wiganer Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 I hope that the Wazza hordes will still come down to London (or they could stay for the week after the Cup Final). This could be a big game in deciding where they are going to finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1976PMJwires Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 I hope that the Wazza hordes will still come down to London (or they could stay for the week after the Cup Final). This could be a big game in deciding where they are going to finish. IF and thats the IF Wire could take top spot, they'll take the numbers. Otherwise a week after Wembley they'll be 1k at best.

THE RED ROOSTER Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 The Official Party Line on this is Harlequins switch final home game to Friday night Harlequins Rugby League announced today that their round 27 Engage Super League fixture against Warrington Wolves will now be played on Friday 3rd September (8pm KO) at the Twickenham Stoop. Harlequins RL General Manager, Paul Blanchard explained: "We have been aware for some time that we could not fulfil the fixture as originally planned and our options were the Friday evening, which was always our preference, or to take the game to an alternative venue and play either Saturday or Sunday. "We were very keen to assess the feedback from our supporters, sponsors, players and staff about our first Friday night game which was overwhelmingly positive." Harlequins RL head coach, Brian McDermott, added: "There was a fantastic atmosphere at our first Friday night game which really helped lift the players. They are all looking forward to another exciting Friday night game when Warrington come to town." But Ingerlund soccer are also playing that evening http://www.thefa.com/England/News/match-ce...ulgaria-tickets May I be the first to call for the postponement of the entire round of Super League on Friday 3 September Even uncle Rupert's magic SKY people will not cover a game that day but will instead have a couple of "filler sport" games played on the Saturday at 4.15 and 6.45 Quote When the pinch comes the common people will turn out to be more intelligent than the clever ones. I certainly hope so. George Orwell You either own NFTs or women’s phone numbers but not both Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pleased with the change though - I should be able to make the game now. My second match of the season! Good for you. I means I definitely can't, and it was going to be my first (depending on Wembley).
