Not sure if they are allowing gate sales on the day. Does anyone know for sure?

you will more than likely need a ticket but it wont be a sell out and I would have thought you can pick up a ticket from the ticket office at the ground on the day.

Saints ticket office open from 10am for remaining sales. Warrington have requested an additional allocation of tickets whereas Leeds are struggling to sell their initial allocation. Clearly going to be outnumbered in the ground. Can't believe that we cannot shift 8K of tickets for a big game.

If it was at Hudds. i guess we would have shifted around that number but with the extra travelling (not that far i know but it does seem to put people off these days) and it being on TV alot sit it out for the final.I expect if it was this side of the border the wire fans wouldn't be asking for extra tickets.don't worry about it, should be an excellent atmosphere and great game.

That's pretty pathetic in all honesty. 8,000 is measly, and to not be able to fill that is poor, but I am starting to find our support is not the best, which is surprising considering the other, larger club in the city have one of the best followings in the country and to a lesser extent the world (Leeds Carnegie obviously). I remember at the 2013 Magic Weekend when we played Wigan at least 3/4 of the ground were filled with people from the other side of the Pennines. Baffling.

I understand that there are some people who just can't afford to go to games that far away from them, but that isn't really an excuse for not being able to sell 8k tickets, an allocation that is measly compared to others. For example, both Hull and Sheffield took around 30000 each (possibly more) to Wembley last (football) season for the FA Cup semi final (179 miles and 156 miles respectively) and neither of those towns (especially the former) are particularly wealthy.

A terrible comparison.

Meh, Its quality over quantity.

Always a better atmosphere from the Leeds fans who make the effort, a la goons at sHuddersfield the other year.

Each to their own.

You know what? I think people are just sick of the frequent poor performances. If we were a poor team we'd accept it, but we aren't. We should be top of the table. We should be going into this Semi full of optimism, but we aren't because we are underachieving and playing beneath ourselves. This is why we aren't snapping tickets up, we are disilusioned.

I have a ticket and I'm confident that we will win the game but I can completely understand why others are not attending.

Whilst some weight with the disillusioned argument, there is also just the fact that people can't be ar$ed regardless of current form of travelling over to St Helens for a half 2 kick off when they can just watch it on tv. Had it been held at Hudds then the number of Leeds fans would be higher I reckon, regardless of form.

simple as that really.most fans just don't hold the CC in the same regard as the past and it has slipped a way behind the GF in priority.I know we have had this debate many times but that is just the way it is.I remember the days when most CC semi finals got 20K plus regular but those days seem to be long gone.Still, the final seems to still get healthy enough crowds.

I've got out of the habit of going to away games. Partly because of cost, partly because of the time it takes to get there and back. I know this is during the day which will be easier travel wise but with most being on a night and travel being horrible on the M62 and other roads I've got out of going.

If it's on tv I probably won't go, especially if it's not nearby.
