So do you ring the direct, and when did you or will you book?

Must admit to (again) being frustrated by the whole experience - basically, I want £45 tickets in the lower tier, and cannot get any. There is absolutely no way that these have all sold out - they clearly haven't all been released yet. What annoys me is that I now have to either take 'worse' seats/pay more that I want to, and then someone else in a few days time can come and pick up the seats I would rather have. I'm with karetaker, you should be able to pick your seats, and they should all be released in one go. That may increase the risk of odd seats here and there (though in practice probably wouldn't really, and you can set the system up so that people cannot deliberately leave 'free' seats in the middle of rows, unless taking say the last 4 of 5 seats available), but even if that's the case, the people losing out would be those who book last, who have to split up.

Just bought (2 minutes ago) tickets in row 4 block 115. (Initially had row 2, but by the time I had reset my password I was back in row 4)

And there are (a minute ago) tickets available elsewhere lower tier behind the sticks. Get on the RFL website ASAP if you still need them.

The 45 quid lower tier ones have always been the most popular, they were previously 35 quid and in 2009, i chose to go for them, as i predicted most ppl would go for the super cheap tickets, either up in the loft or right at the front of the lower stand. In 2010 they again were most popular and in 2012 they went to up 45, i can easily believe that these were the first ones sold out based on not being in the nosebleeds and not being extortionate prices.

Tail between my legs time, now I'm in a bit of a better mood: I get these would be most popular, but couldn't believe they would sell out that quick - however, a quick calculation, and on getting some more info, it turns out there's less than 3,500 £45 lower tier in our end, which ain't that many really, and I get that these would have sold out by now. I think we ended up there in 2012 by doing the 'what if' form thing. Guess I needed to act on Saturday night to get these, but was on holiday, so couldn't. I originally thought there were probably about 10,000 seats in this area, but when you look at it, each block is only about 500-600 seats.

Managed to get row 7, in upper tier, on the 20 metre line (block 503), which I'm just about happy with.

Still think the 'middle' tier (i.e. blocks 2XX) probably haven't been released yet, so my original rant is still valid I reckon

The club Wembley seats and the VIP seating under the trophy balcony were all but empty last year and is such a shame as if there is going to be 65-75k for a CC cup final which i know is disappointing for some fans not to sell out. But its a decent crowd in my book. It would look and feel so much better if everyone was concentrated in the first and middle tiers than everyone dotted around the nosebleeds the middle tier completly empty and the 1st tier packed apart from two empty VIP blocks right across from the tv cameras.

I had everything set up at home (and on my phone) ready to book during the game should it be going our way... .
as soon as Ratchford Scored to takes us past 30 I got the missus to do the necessary on the RFL website and we got our "usual" place in block 113. she could have got them right behind the sticks but I'm a bit superstitious so we opted for no further than we've been before so 113 is round about our usual spot, and that will do me....!!

I saw that fans over in Hull were camping overnight, and fans were queuing at the HJ at 6am in the morning, what's that all about, its not the 1970's.....

No i go online, when u choose the section you want it then shows the row and seat numbers, if u dont like whats shown just come out and redo it till u hopefully get what you want. I guess ringing the RFL ticket office would be just as easy.

Just been on the rfl website. They have block 109 available,as of 10 minutes ago.

Almost this...

A naughty tip.
You have 20mins to make your purchase and all tickets you have selected will be on hold for that period.

So....

Put all your alloted tickets into your basket, and keep selecting more until the system gives you tickets your happy with, then you click the little x' at the side corner of those you want to reject.

I had over 18 selections before I got front row of the east side.

.....doing this means you can pick the best you put in the basket in case further choices go rubbish again.

Already sorted mine before game had finished but out of curiosity I just went on the rfl site and there is a queue to get on.
