Fans of York City Knights have reacted with fury online, after Sky Sport said it wouldn't be screening this weekend's match against Toronto Wolfpack after all.
The decision appears to have been made by the Toronto club, not the broadcaster.
The top-of-the-table clash is described by many fans as the match of the season.
It is with regret that the club has received information that Sky Sports will no longer be screening this weekend's match against Toronto Wolfpack. As a result, we have had to cancel the viewing party at York St John Students' Union.
