But hasn't that been the case since the match went back to Wembley w/r/t attendance reporting?

Looks like it could be the biggest attendance since 2010...

Can imagine the England football teams decline isn't helping with sales, as they are the main tenant and main draw for these tickets. Maybe a compromise would be that less club Wembley seats are sold, meaning the rest can be put in general sale.

At last, someone gets it. Hardly any games at Wembley look sensational on TV and that is because of the problem of CW non-attenders, but also the fact that the toffs that tend to occupy the prime central seating bang opposite the cameras are by and large not much interested in what happens on the field either, and so when the second half kicks off, the cameras face swathes of empty seats.

It's an issue for forum handwringers and trolls and your typical RL whinge-about-anythingers, but not for the RFL, for the simple reason knockersbump states, we're in the club, and that guarantees them a fixed amount of CW income. The CW members paid; Wembley distributes the payment as per; the RFL trousers its share. And you seriously think they would give a shoiite whether or not WC seats are occupied? The aesthetics may bruise the tender hearts of some on here but money talks.

Don't get what the RFL are doing wrong by saying the club wembley seats are sold? They are sold.

Everyone else counts seats sold in the attendance, so why shouldn't we?

Anyway, it looks like a cracking crowd, me and the Mrs are in the Leeds end, can't wait.

Yep. It's like during the World Cup when apparently we had to be the only major sport in the world to not use the attendance figure for both games of a double header. To do so would be ridiculous/trickery/Nigel Wood lying/evidence of RL's decline. Apparently.

If you're going to have a pop at a poster, can I suggest you get your facts straight?
It was William Eve who claimed the empty seats at Wembley. I do not recall Gutterfax or anyone else claiming they were empty.

By the way, have you finally managed to unsubscribe from BT sport yet? I was concerned for your mental wellbeing given you'd paid to watch a sport you dislike and then apparently the sods at BT wouldn't let you turn it off.....
