That car park is always bad to get out of by car.
One of the locals told us to hang on for 15 mins or so because they open some back gates to let the coaches out and it saves you having to queue and go the long way.
And by god he was right  |

Can't be any worse than the coach car park at the Keepmoat anyroad, took us 45 minutes or so to get off the mudflats and on towards the M18, only for it to be shut and force a U-turn through Doncaster!

| Quote: nathanwood7 "There's loads of tickets left for this match. It's the first time an international has been shown live on BBC in the middle of the day for years and years and is therefore the biggest chance the sport has had for many years to appear on the national stage. To get a full-house and a big atmosphere would make a massive difference.
If nothing else, 20 quid to watch the likes of Slater, Inglis and Lockyer (in his last appearances over here) is an absolute bargain.
If the game is in front of an empty stadium then we really can't complain about our treatment by the national press.'"
define loads. 5-10K left? or more. anything under 20K would be shameful
i cant go to any of the group games due to being a poor student, but im booked in for the final and hoping the postal strikes doesnt screw up the tickets getting sent! |

It’ll be a sad day for the sport when we can’t fill a rugby league stadium for the biggest international fixture when just less than a week earlier the exhibition regular round NRL football match got how many in Wembley?

indeed. the question a half empty stadium poses to the RFl is why? is it the fear of inevitable loss to Roo's, ticket prices, too long a season or something else.
I think and hope it will be 22-24K. |

You can still buy 20 tickets together in the cheapest price category directly behind the sticks. Tickets are still available in every single block of the stadium. |

I couldnt get 4 together directly behind the sticks last week, you can get 20 in the outer blocks behind the sticks possibly in the North.

I suspect it'll struggle to break 20k from what I've been told.

If it does then Wigan should lose this match in future, Hull/Leeds should gain it

Why?
Why would more people turn up if it was in Leeds than they would if it was in Wigan? |

No chance of that happening, Duffen doesn't want international RL at the KC, it might clash with his basket-weaving conference. |
