YORK City Knights' fixture on Saturday at Toronto Wolfpack will no longer be televised.
The clash of the Betfred Championship's top two (6.10pm) was due to be shown on Sky Sports.
As such, the Knights have had to cancel the planned viewing party at York St John Students’ Union.
A club statement reads: "The club are obviously disappointed at this news and apologise to our loyal fans.
"Anyone who had bought tickets for the event is able to get a full refund from either the club office or in the club shop at the Featherstone Rovers match on August 18."
The RFL say they understand this is a decision made by the club rather than the broadcaster.
Wolfpack's home game against Leigh Centurions on Saturday, September 7 has also been pulled from Sky.
Second-placed York sit a point ahead of chasing pair Toulouse Olympique and Leigh ahead of the trip to the Lamport Stadium, with runaway leaders Toronto 11 clear at the summit.
