Quote: B'wood Bob "I think that this ring of seats is Club Wembley and so won't get released for general sale. Always strikes me as a shame that there are so many of these seats unoccupied on game day, and the RFL should argue that Club Wembley complementary tickets shouldn't include the Challenge Cup final anymore.'"
The RLWC semi final was brilliant with a sold out Club Wembley, thanks to it not being included on the debenture. I paid £20 (good old voucher codes got me 50% off student tickets) to sit there and it was a great experience.
However, I was told that the RFL negotiated a deal, whereby they are paid as if the seats were all taken - a rare stroke of good business from Big Nige! Sadly, the 'ring of indifference' is just a feature of New Wembley.
