| All 13,000 tickets have not been sold.
Should this have been played at a bigger ground?
And not at Widnes to win back the punters and make the game a bigger event?

Where did you hear this? It should sell out with it being only Tuesday, but there are thousands of seats still available on Saints website.
Wigan have sold their allocation, but you can still buy plenty of tickets for their end on the website...

Answer is no.
Some of Saints crowds this season have been p1ss poor so the capacity at that dump the Stobart,is just about right for the game.

Have you actually tried it? I can't see the stand holding any more than the 2,700 Wigan were allocated (breaking safety regulations as it is) and the online system doesn't actually select any seats when trying it.

Yeah I got to the confirm your order screen when trying it. The red seats are all available.
Actually, scratch that. When you select West stand after choosing another stand it doesn't update the picture. Doh. But there are still thousands of tickets left in the North and South stands for anyone still wanting to attend the game.

39110_1363272058.jpg Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

The difference is that this is a temporary home. It could have been moved if they wanted a huge crowd. Its a different situation if you are at your own stadium.

The Stobart is a dump. If you want to see a quality ground look no further than the Halliwell-Jones.
I don't know why Saints choose such an awful stadium to play in for a year.
