BRADFORD Bulls and Castleford Tigers have rescheduled this weekend’s friendly for Friday (January 29) at 8pm in a bid to beat the weather.

After the intense snowstorm on the east coast of America over the weekend, the weather will cross the North Atlantic Ocean and fall on the UK in the form of constant heavy rain.

To give the game the best chance of going ahead, the Bulls and the Tigers have taken the decision to move the game from Sunday to Friday night.

This is to avoid the chance of the constant downpour forcing the game to be cancelled.

If the weather dramatically worsens before Friday and is called off, the postponed game will be rearranged for Sunday, January 31 at 3pm.
