When i first ordered mine in west stand it was sit where you like but now thats changed ,i rang ticket office this morning and picked my seats so anyone who is in the west stand thinking you can sit anywhere you cant they will have allocated you a no.

They don't tell or ask you when you ring where in the stands you want to sit and it was the fact that there is no proper seating plan on the site that caused me to ask. You wont get any tickets now if there's more than 1 in the middle blocks for the west and east stand. I just managed to get a familly ticket for the back row of H block directly adjacent to G block.

The nearest we could get to where we normally sit is H block 3rd row down apparently the G block was unavailable to start with due to more important people sitting there i guess just glad i rang up though as we could have ended up on front row tut.

However many people that are in the Corporate boxes, seats need to be reserved for them in the stands, should they decide too come down and sit there.

I got the prices for the boxes yesterday - what a shock!!

They aren't selling any boxes without food so the prices are:

'Gold boxes' with 3 course meal £59 +VAT (£69.33) (per person)
Boxes 1-11

'Diamond package' with 3 course meal and wine plus welcome glass of champagne £75 +VAT (£88.13) (per person)
Boxes 12-22.

There's no way I'd pay this price - what are they thinking?

And the RFL obviously haven't though this through very well or they'd have given the 'Diamond package' the central boxes - say boxes 8-16 - because the way they have done it, you could have someone paying £88.33 for an outside box (22), whilst someone who has paid £69.33 could be on the half way line in box 11.

Also the club only make money from these tickets (10%) if you clearly state that you are buying through Leigh Centurions, but this isn't exclusive to Leigh, any club who sells a box will make 10% - so thank you to the RFL - for nowt.

Sorry for sounding thick Dave but what your saying is that if you are in a box with seats infront of it there is still a seat reserved in the stand also?

Yes, thats right.

Can you tell why when there is a seat for them in front of the box?

I went to a corporate at the Bolton, in the de verre, that was the same, we also had seats in the stand.

Hope they use these seats as they are facing the cameras and it wont look good with a lot of empty seats plus i;'ll be reet annoyed because we were not allowed to sit where we normally do tut

Well it's pretty ridiculous to have seats for those in boxes - you'd have to walk up to the banqueting suite and then all the way back down the stand to get to them!!

What will be horrible is that these seats become available to everyone closer to the time because they haven't sold all the corperate boxes. Seems very silly to me and also reduces the crowd.

Amazing if true.

Just booked 2 tickets & hotel..will fit into a trip over to get some Leyth air back in my lungs

Its the whole of block g so possibly seats for posh folk eh,also would imagine SL coaches and the like would be coming and they will want the best seats so we get turfed out of um
