Hull KR boss Willie Peters fears ‘skin hanging off’ in Wakefield pitch row
WAKEFIELD’S pitch has been given the all clear to host Hull KR after concerns even sent Sky Sports away.
But Rovers boss Willie Peters insists they had to fight to make sure it is right, so he does not see skin hanging off players’ legs afterwards.
The hybrid surface has been the centre of many players receiving scratches and cuts, with Trinity sources telling SunSport some stars even turned to antibiotics to prevent infection.
And KR’s field manager decided it was not up to scratch on his inspection, leading to an independent opinion on Monday.
Even though that decided it is OK, Peters does not want to see scenes like those displayed by Catalans and Huddersfield players.
He said: “We wouldn’t have gone through what we went through if we didn’t think there was strong evidence the pitch wasn’t right and there was an issue.
“When I saw photos of players having played on there, it wasn’t good and I’ve had people contact me, knowing we’re playing on it soon. I wasn’t fishing for things.
“It’s a brutal contact sport so to see legs and skin taken off the way it was and players getting infected because of a pitch, we’re in control of that.

“Comments were made about it being OK for the Huddersfield game. Well, no it wasn’t. It was mentioned after by people who played in the game that it wasn’t OK.
“Our ground manager had a look and decided it wasn’t in condition. Going by the first two games there, the field wasn’t right.
“Now an independent person has said it’s OK, we’ll go with that but if it’s similar to what it has been, I’d be disappointed.”
The Wakefield match was meant to be broadcast live on Sky but fears it may get switched or postponed forced them to switch to Wigan v Salford.
However following hours of discussion, the match stays to its original schedule.
But Peters is adamant his players are OK to play, adding: “We’ve spoken about it doesn’t matter now. We’ll play anywhere, it doesn’t matter. They’re in the right headspace.”

Prince Harry and William’s relationship ‘hanging by a thread’ before bombshell book exposing their feud, insider claims
PRINCE William’s relationship with his brother is “hanging by a thread” ahead of of the release of Harry’s bombshell book, an insider has claimed.
The Duke of Sussexes‘ tell-all memoir ‘Spare’ will hit the shelves on January 10.
Harry has promised to examine the “highs and lows” of his extraordinary life as royal, which culminated in his bitter “Megxit” split from the Royal Family.
And now publishing sources say it will further damage the relationship between Harry and William.
One source told The Daily Mail: “’Things are hanging by a thread as it is after the past few months, and from the sounds of it Harry’s memoir is unlikely to help.”
It comes after The Sun told Harry’s new book will blast the system that left him playing “spare” to his older brother.
A source said: “At the heart of this book lies a sibling rivalry between little brother and big brother.
“It will reveal Harry’s bitterness and feelings of unfairness that by the nature of hierarchy and birthright that he always played second fiddle to older William.”
The highly-anticipated book is ghostwritten by JR Moehringer, a Pulitzer prize winning journalist, who previously ghosted tennis player Andre Agassi’s autobiography.
It’s thought the memoir will answer questions which were not broached in Harry and Meghan’s Netflix show.
Experts believe dramatic moments were held back from the show as content for the book.
Meanwhile it’s thought that Meghan is also thinking about writing her own tell-all.
A source close to the couple told OK she “is contemplating getting entirely candid about her time in the royal limelight, considering crafting a memoir of her own,”.
They added: “She fully intends to write this book and leave no stone unturned.”
Harry is understood to have already recorded a TV interview about the book with ITV News at Ten’s Tom Bradby.
It is expected to air on Sunday — two days before the book is published.
