Featherstone v Goole's historic pre-season fixture to be live streamed

Featherstone v Goole's historic pre-season fixture to be live streamed

Featherstone Rovers will host Goole Vikings tonight (Tuesday 14 January) in a rearranged pre-season fixture.

While it is the Rovers’ first game of 2025, it will also be the Vikings’ first time in action since returning to the professional ranks, and it is set to be an enticing encounter.

Scott Taylor’s newly assembled squad will be relishing the test against Betfred Championship opposition at The Millenium Stadium, as they prepare for life in Betfred League One next month.

Goole’s local players Tom Halliday, Thomas Minns and Ben Hodder are all included in their 21-man squad, whilst ex-Super League stars Jamie Shaul and Brett Ferres, as well as former Featherstone man Misi Talaupapa, are all set to feature in Vikings colours for the first time. 

Meanwhile, Jame Ford has named an experienced 22-man squad for the match, also featuring former Super League players such as Connor Wynne, Derrell Olpherts and Ben Reynolds.

This historic warm-up match will be available for live stream here for a price of £6, kicking off at 7.30pm.

Tickets are also available from Featherstone’s club website.
