i know what your saying,i pesonally dont get it.pre match not really interested myself.if you go to the cinema the price is the same if the film last 90 mins or 180 mins.when skyfall came out people were queing outside for days,the price stayed the same.we have now played three prestige or whatever you call them games and none have been anywhere near a sell out,and i doubt wigan will be either.there are reasons people stay away,the club should be interested in finding out why.i would love watching my team in front of a packed lsv. up the comics.

Hi Ste hope your well, i think that the example you have given isn't the best one to pick, simply because for many years Salford have struggled to attract regular big/decent crowds. People used to say "Salford is football and not Rugby" and that was at the Willows. Now i'm led to believe no Salford fan could walk to the ground, but i do agree that the sport in the main seems to be on a decline regarding numbers attending matches. Personally i think the scheduling of the games and then re-scheduling of said games has more to do with the decline than the price.

sorry I must be missing your point, wasn't the OP about expensive tickets on a Thursday night?

The Salford v Wakey game was £10 a ticket and played on a Sunday....

good points,i went to the game.its a good stadium,they have a good team who are playing well.at £25 a seat & £5 car park its not cheap.i work in salford and people who used to go to the willows say its hard to get too,and its too pricey.worryingly i did not see many kids,so it dont look good for the future.

No Worries Pal ,I am just losing heart with the game at the moment, seen the situation we are in all too often at Leigh ,High hopes early in the season turning to disappointment towards the end .I just hope we are not the team in that Million Pound game if its at HKR ,as I can see them coming straight back up at the cost of one of the bottom 4 in Super League and at the moment ,if we don't sort things it could be us . Too many of the players that were going to give us Sl success have spent most of the season sat in the stands My Sister will be there tomorrow she goes to every game ,every year with others from the family ,so I will be represented if I can't make it

Same HKR who beat Bradford by 1 and drew with Fev in last 2 games??

totally agree...

Either of those three teams would beat Wire at present. Still a few twists and turns left before the 8's.

Sixteen players I recall out for one reason or another last season at one point.Wasn't the case come the 8's.

Spot on, think we learned a lot of lessons from the season previous where we burned out - see a similar pattern this season

Wire would and will put 40 on all 3 teams...

That's a good enough reason for you to be where you are, when Hull KR knocked you out of the cup like them you were suffering from injuries but maybe their injured players' were not as influential as yours were, if you can get most of your players back in time for the middle 8s' then there's no reason why you should be worried about any of the championship clubs or the other 3 SL for that matter.

I have just predicted at work we will win 28-16 hope springs eternal looking forward to it come on you leythers I work with a pile of wiganers so I will be off tomorrow if we lose

Same Hull KR that beat us at LSV. Also, we also narrowly beat Bradford at summer bash last year.

They couldn't put 40 on't miners at present.

Who is going to do what to who in the 8's can not be determined yet.

Players back from injury with the players coming in to the club will see us do reasonably well in the 8's IMO but we will have to see what shape all 8 clubs are in, the week leading up to it.

It's effectively a brand new competition

I am confident though we will consolidate our Super League status at the end of it.
