This is rapidly turning into another right farce.

One of my mates who was extremely keen to attend and required a ticket but has now just agreed to work next Friday night in the absence of anything concrete.

Leigh could have had £10k in the bank minimum by now from ticket sales alone.

I would be interested to know how much Leigh want to charge fans for admission to this match as from talking to a few Wigan supporters at work, rightly or wrongly that's were the finger of suspicion for this situation is currently pointing to.

Make it £15 and season ticket holders of both clubs get in for a tenner.

Bet you'd get pretty much all 10000 ish? Wigan ST holders there.

I really am at a loss to understand some posts on this thread.

We play Friday or Sunday some will not be able to go for whatever reason.

Our club is on the breadline and needs to negotiate a price structure which will suit the vast majority of Wigan fans so as to ensure a decent return from the crowd that will attend the game a week next Friday.

Can you imagine running a business in a similar financial position as our club who would not have to do the same ?

Had we got a regular 2000 fans per home game maybe it would not have mattered so much and would not have annoyed some' who think waiting four days and a bit is far too long in the scheme of things to know the fixture date and the ticket price.

Anyways we will all know tomorrow won't we.

SURELY WE MUST FIND OUT TODAY !!!!

So there won't be a problem organising the next round then............that is assuming this one gets played in time.

Depends. We might draw Wire next round.

I will give you credit for retaining the ability to post whilst inebriated.

Watch it lad or you'll be on my hit list.

You get a draw that ignites interest, and then a week later nobody knows when its played - only at Leigh. We are masters of never missing ones foot after taking aim. Humbleland rumours are saying it is down to our demands for higher ticket prices than they want to charge......... lets see, potentially 4 working days to go after today

Rumours again then but in the leyth dictionary rumours equal fact.

Well we find out soon anyway so we can all stop whining and get on with it can't we?

Blimey, this is nothing compared to what football fans go through all season (proper football fans that is, who go to games, not the ones who wear the shirt and shout a lot.)

Exactly! The club is living hand to mouth and this is a great opportunity to a) make some money and b) win back fans. I appreciate they need to negotiate the best deal but that shouldn't take so long! People have lives outside of rugby league and will make other plans. That is the harsh reality, not everyone can afford to say that they will be there come what May because they have other commitments. It should have been sorted ASAP to allow the best part of two weeks to really push the game on the back of the draw hype.

If I were running a company and presented a huge opportunity like this I would be bending over backwards, even if that meant having to make concessions just so I could get it sorted and get the message out.

That is my point exactly people do have other commitments not least the guy who looks after or overseas our finances.

He works full time and am sure has other responsibilities in his life away from Leigh RLFC.

All I am saying is we will know today when and at what time we play the Pies and how much tickets are.

Anyone reading this thread would think organising' for most Leythers a 7 mile trip takes Leythers a lot of brain work

And for those like me who travel by train why not use National Rail Enquiries.

Well there is the matter of organising coaches - tickets need printing for example.
I've had my finger on the button all week to get the tickets sorted to have on sale from today but due to the delay I will unfortunately not be able to do them now.
