    You can pay for match day parking on Tesco via an app, but it tends to get booked up months in advance

    Is it not 3? Don't take my word for it but I'm sure I've exceeded 2 hours on match night and nothing has come of it.

    Likewise. The signs don't make it clear that it's not 3 hours universally - certainly not clear enough to stand up in court (it's highly doubtful they'd ever get that far anyway, as they go away if you just keep on ignoring them)

    Playing at home with this squad, following the results of flat week should be a comfortable win. But games against the goons never work like that. And too often when we finally get a full strength squad available, they just don’t perform. Can see it being a real tense affair, certainly for the first half, and wouldn’t rule out another golden point thriller

    It depends how we start . Wigans pack is shocking . If we compliment out middles control with rapid line speed , we should smother them . I can see them trying to use the kick out wide from 2nd 3rd tackle to expose out compact defence .

    If we are clinical in attack we should rack up a few points but anything can happen .

    I expect them to be doing that from the 1st minute to take the middles out of play.

    Its a risky manouever to kick on 2nd or 3rd tackle as it means we'll start higher up the pitch and have more gas in the tank having made less tackles - also with Ritson and Welsby we can counter attack well from misplaced kicks.

    Some of our fielding of kicks has been awful this year, never seen so many balls allowed to bounce. My concern is them getting 3-4 in the tackle and being allowed a bit of a nap before they get up. The ref could really stop us getting a roll on.

    Hi there. I think that you can park on Tesco on the day without pre booking, You need to download "Your Parking Space" app. When you arrive at the car park open the app and use the site number which can be found on the notices which you can now find on numerous posters
    places on the car park. Good Luck.

    Similar team to last week. Knowles back in at loose, Bell to the bench, LMS misses out. The rest exactly the same.

    If Knowles doesn’t have the game of his life today. You would feel fairly ••••ed if you were Bell today. Bennison is one of the few players over the years that I feel bad for missing out. The lads done well every time he’s played.

    It’s a very strong team. Theirs doesn’t look too weak despite missing a few

    Massively disagree with Knowles walking back into the side. He’s been rubbish all year, it’s not as though he’s been in good form.

    Agreed. Wellens not showing Pep balls there.

    He needs to have a near perfect match in my opinion

    Yep. If he doesn’t know that he’s as dumb as his disciplinary record looks.

    If he has been doing well in training, probably the right choice for this type of game.

    I hope he’s match fit. His style requires massive energy. Playing on the edge if his fitness isn’t on point is a recipe for him getting a card again and we can’t afford that against Wigan’s fast backs. I hope he has his best game of the year

    I’m hoping we all have good ones, but don’t expect Knowles to do anything like 80, especially with Bell on the bench for when it starts to open up.

    Yes, I think that’s right.
