Stayed at Premier Inn Watford (Croxley Green) for the past 3 Challenge Cup Finals. Excellent base, leave the car there and a short walk to the station.

Whats happening with the middle section are club wembley holders getting in ? i wonder if more will turn up over challenge cup with it being England

Hope so. Really looking forward to this game.

Think there will be about 40 to 50k there. Looking forward to it. Was lucky enough to grap £10 tickets while offer was still on, and got my hotel near to ground for free on points! Bargain weekend!

Hope this goes well. Even though my team is still in the play offs im more excited about seeing England at Wembley at the moment.

Me too. Also i'm lucky enough to get free rail travel, so it's a cheap day out for me.

Result

I'd originally bought 7 on the £10 offer, tried adding another at 21 and only single seats left!! Sales must be going ok at an early stage, expect to see more of a rush after the grand final.

Yeah, I'd expect to see the upper tier opened for sale after the Grand Final if sales are going well.

Surely if the £25 areas are down to single seat availability, now would be the time to open up the upper tier? But then again it is the RFL...

stop ya whinging

we're on target to break the 4nation attendance record....what more can they do?

No, I wouldn't say so. They have the play off semis to promote and 70 odd thousand tickets to shift for the Grand final. All focus and energy needs to be concentrated on that at the moment. The promotion for the Wembley double-header should begin at the Grand Final with a press release about the extended seating sent out on the Monday afterwards.

If they were to open the upper tier with lower priced tickets now that would detract some attention away from the Grand Final and means that folk are more likely to buy the cheap tickets behind the sticks than the more expensive ones in the middle of the pitch. This way they're concentrating resources and making sure there is less chance of big gaps in the middle of the pitch.

I'd say the best course of action would be to open up the upper tier of Wembley, have a knock down price range (£10-25 adults, £10 all concessions) and launch it at the Grand Final by getting the England train on squad, all wearing England jackets, to walk on pitch before the match and have someone announce the new offer.

Are they? Who has said this?

I know that the RFL have already hit their minimum target on the Wembley attendance. No idea what this is but would imagine about 40,000.

Expect the big push after the Grand final.

I got 50 tickets at the £10 offer. Running a bus trip from Hull.
