RED DEVILS RETURN TO AJ BELL STADIUM
Salford Red Devils will host next week’s Betfred Super League match against Warrington Wolves, as part of a double-header at the AJ Bell Stadium.
Betfred Super League can announce the fixtures for Round 14 – to be played on 29 and 30 September and 1 October.
The government’s decision to pause its plans to allow a limited number of spectators back into sporting venues has seen some late adjustments to Super League’s Round 14 fixtures, which had been included in the government’s programme of pilot events.
The AJ Bell Stadium will host matches on Tuesday 29 September and the games will be live on Sky Sports. Fixtures on Wednesday 30 September will see Leeds Rhinos and Huddersfield Giants play at their own grounds.
Castleford Tigers will also go back to the Mend-A-Hose Jungle – but their match against Hull FC has moved from Wednesday 30 September to Thursday 1 October. The game will be live on Sky Sports at 7.45pm.
BETFRED SUPER LEAGUE ROUND 14 FIXTURES (SEPTEMBER 29, 30 and OCTOBER 1):
Tuesday 29 September (AJ Bell Stadium)
Salford Red Devils v Warrington Wolves (6pm – live on Sky Sports) Wigan Warriors v St Helens (8.15pm – live on Sky Sports)

FROM RFL CEO RALPH RIMMER
“It was useful to hear directly from the Secretary of State this afternoon on the various announcements made by Government and the Prime Minister in the last 24 hours as they impact on sports. We remain grateful for his time and the work of the DCMS Sports Team.
Today’s call specifically focused on the postponement of the pilot event programme and the plans for socially distanced crowds and the further serious impact this will now have on sports.
The Secretary of State indicated that the postponement may last throughout the Winter.
The impact on Rugby League and other sports is profound.
Rugby League has sadly shelved a much anticipated Ashes series this year, and major finals without crowds looks likely.
The loan facility provided by Government has been welcomed by the sport. It was predicated on an initial 12 week lockdown. Additionally every club has taken significant steps to reduce costs, and players and staff have taken pay reductions. The sport has reacted quickly and decisively in facing these challenges. Yet it remains likely that with losses at up £2m a week across the sport as a whole, and continued uncertainty, there will be job losses across the sport.
The Secretary of State is fully aware of the extremely serious economic situation facing sports including Rugby League from being prevented from generating any revenue through ticket sales for over six months now as we face the prospect of further months without this income; as well as managing the continued pressure on all commercial and other partnerships which support sport. We are extremely grateful for the continued forbearance of partners at this time.
Today’s letter to the Prime Minister from over 100 sports emphasises the central role of sport in the nation’s recovery – the social and economic recovery of our communities, and our collective physical and mental health. That’s why it is so vitally important that we continue to make progress with community Rugby League clubs on the phased return to playing community Rugby League.
Rugby League makes an outstanding difference in all these areas. Sports has so much to offer the country as we eventually come out of this crisis.
But we cannot play these vital roles fully if sports are decimated. There is a very real impact on jobs and investment which harms community clubs and grassroots playing opportunities as well as professional sport.
We continue to reiterate the sector’s absolute commitment to public safety and our shared expertise in managing a safe and controlled return of fans.
We will continue to work with Government on timelines and look forward clear commitments to protecting the public funding for sport and addressing the very real and continued impact of the losses on our sports.”
Ralph Rimmer
CEO, The RFL
