Seriously, its hypothetical as yet , as you point out, but if I can see the possibility of it happening, then surely the people in charge can? Either way it could be a nailed on cert 3 weeks before the event, so lets wait and see.

My moneys on a last minute decision that not enough notice was given

How?
The semi final dates for the play offs have been known since the fixtures came out which IIRC was October/November 2014!!

I'll hypothesise a bit further. What if we play our final super 8 game against Castleford already assured of 2nd place and a Castleford win would deprive Saints of a top four spot. Do we turn out a weak team or what?

That's hardly the Corinthian spirit, is it?

because back then I doubt anyone on the footy side of things foresaw the possibility of a Warriors home tie in the knock outs, or even cared

If we finish second, the game will be 8pm on Friday 2nd October at the DW. If we finish first, it will be 8pm on Thursday 1st October at the DW. HTH.

IF the Russians explode a nuclear bomb over the DW stadium the day before the game, will we have to play the game in Leigh, and how will we know ?

Re: That old chestnut : Thu Sep 03, 2015 8:38 am  

The game WILL take place at The DW if we come second, Leeds quite rightly, will be given the option of Thursday, for an extra days break, or Friday, for a bigger crowd. Latics will play Walsall on the Saturday. And as it's not televised they can delay the kick off to prepare the ground if necessary.

Mind you Millwall is free that weekend so you never know.

Why has there been no announcement from the Club about this possibility? I think it's outrageous that the fans are being kept in the dark.

Exactly, what are the plans if there is a nuclear attack during a game, if the scores are level will it be golden point ?,will pie sales be suspended, if the game is replayed can you still use your season ticket ?
