| Quote: MrSmith "The voucher clearly states that it must be redeemed at the club ticket office.
I think the Leeds decision has been made for purely pragmatic reasons. It is far easier to programme their central turnstile system to accept their season tickets than to produce thousands of extra tickets and then physically exchange these for the vouchers.
The voucher also states that the offer is subject to availability and that "terms and conditions apply".
Ignoring the terms and conditions, which are presumably being hastily rewritten at RL HQ, I wonder how the "subject to availability" would apply to RG's scenario above. Wigan could certainly argue that they do indeed have 10k season ticket holders. However Saints could argue that Wigan traditinally bring , say , 5k and merely release that number in which case ther are insufficient available to Wigan season ticket holders.'"
simple really. RFL Operational rules state that the visiting club is only entitled to 30% of available tickets, so Wigan would get 5,130 tickets - regardless of the number of season ticket holdesrs they have. |

So what you're saying now, based on your figures is that all Saints season ticket holders can not have a ticket for Leeds.
And if that is so why are they being allowed to purchase two extra tickets? |

I think that is so that at least there is some revenue coming in.
Isn't it the same at Barrow. If all Wigans season ticket holders had a ticket then there would be none left for the Barrow supporters because they all have to pay for this match as they have had their voucher in a previous round.  |

according to the rules, Leeds have to make available a minimum of 6,150 tickets (30% of the 20,500 capacity), which is less than the number of season ticket holders - however, under this scheme I presume that where the capacity exists the free tickets have to be given to any ST holder who wants one.

Presumably Leeds have made more tickets available.
the game wont sell out, so there isnt an issue IMO. |

It's not been very well thought out has it.
The next thing will be a seeding system for the CC.

to be fair, the only major issue is the Wigan / Barrow one - all the other games will be able to accomodate all season ticket holders.
Leeds and Saints will complain about the lost revenue from what would have been big gate receipts, but they agreed to it and knew there was a chance it could turn out that way.
All the games will get bigger crowds than they would have done normally, and although revenue will be down, the clubs have got a good marketing opportunity on their hands. |

Presumably Leeds find that very real risk a small price to pay for not having to print over 10k tickets and then have to exchange them for the vouchers. |

This was my first thought too.
How many season ticket holders do you have. I'd guess 8 000, so if I am correct, and you all turn up, you will more than fill the Western Terrace which would look brilliant on the TV. |

I'd say it's closer to the 6k or 7k mark. |

our away stand holds around about 4.5k imo, and you will have been given a certain % of seating in the North stand i think.

I doubt we'll sell our 5k allocation anyway. I'd expect around 3k, anymore would be a good turnout.
