Despite advice not to travel and the fact that hundreds of people were left stranded on the M62 overnight, Warrington’s game at Hull will go ahead this evening.

One of only two Super League games that has survived the weather at its scheduled time, there are no problems with the pitch or the surrounding areas in Hull, the only problem is the Wolves actually getting there.

Although police advice was to only make trips if absolutely necessary, the Wolves started the day by confirming the game would go ahead and that supporters should take extra caution.

Their stance changed later on, when they revealed that on police advice, all supporters’ coaches were cancelled.

The team haven’t yet made it to Hull either, they are now travelling by train.

There’s an interesting debate to be had as to whether fans should be taken more into consideration in this instance – hardly any Warrington fans are likely to make the trip now, though the club has said it will refund any pre-purchased tickets.

Needless to say, it’s provided plenty of discussion on Twitter today.

Though the plan to get the train sounded a sensible alternative to the M62, there are plenty of cancellations and there is still no guarantee the team will get there.
