Steep? They want £70 to watch England play Greece. I'd call that daylight robbery/rank stupidity

They start at £15, from what I've seen.

So we'll sell a load of the £15 tickets (behind the goal i assume) none of the £70 tickets (on the side) and have the camera aimed at an empty stand.

I used to always get the most expensive tickets until that World Cup Final at OT years ago. We were given the worst seats in the house and then they let people in on the day for £10 to try to boost the crowd and they had great seats. After that I’ve always bought cheaper tickets on principle.

You can spend your money however you like EC, I was just pointing out that you can attend this fixture (should you be able to do so) without spending £70 on a ticket.

I'm aware of that yes, and I'm not arguing or looking to argue, my point (or more my opinion) is that for this game, £70 should include hospitality. This is the sort of game that we should play at a stadium like Leigh that holds 10k, not one that holds 40k and has tickets at £70.

Neither am I looking to argue, and take your point that £70 for the [ibest seats[/i does seem steep, but we can all choose how much were willing to spend. Take your point about hospitality that could have been a way of selling more top end tickets. However, making a profit over the entire tournament would make this undesirable from the RFL's point of view.

At what stage do we look at postponing the WC by a year. I am starting to fear that there may still be restrictions in place this time next year. The earlier any call id made to postpone the better albeit I suspect it will be left until around Feb / March before making that call.

Actually noticed an advert to promote ticket sales for the 2021 World Cup on a Sky channel, yesterday. Who knows if and when there's a set date that the RFL (or whoever) will make a decision by.

I've bought tickets for quite a few games, including Wheelchair at Copper Box as that is not a huge venue and didn't want to miss out. The price structure overall is quite reasonable. Union world cup top-tier tickets topped £200 in some venues, and we all know what soccer wants when it comes to prices. Clearly many folk won't want to pay £70 plus but that's why there is a range. Plus the 'bundles' also make it cheaper. Lastly, big congratulaitons on putting the tickets on sale so far out. This is by a long way the best organised RLWC to date.

Rugby League needs to attract more fans that can pay £70 without thinking about it, people who have money aren't better than those who do not, but we need money to spend on facilities, coaches, and development officers for young players.

Internationals are our blue chip product, the ashes and World Cups should be the way we fund our future, if we have one...

Is it just me that is having problems with the RLWC website? Trying to reset my password and by the time I receive their reset link it tells me it has expres, repeatedly! Seems they don5 want to sell tickets.
