I'm with mickey here, having been in a similar position before. We always head up to OT on Friday and when it gets to Tuesday it only takes 1 piece of lost post to cause a massive inconvinience that you shouldnt have to deal with when you ordered weeks ago. Its dreadful service. I'm going to a Bundesliga game in November and the tickets were dispatched and in our hands within a week.

What do you think the turnover of the Bundesliga is compared to Super League?

Agree... it is frustrating and as mentioned, a simple lost postal item will mean missing on the event you've paid for.

Think they'll have delayed as they'll want to print the team names on the tickets... probably the delay I'd guess.

I understand your frustration, but to be fair the RFL are a bit busy on the ticketing side at the moment what with a world cup about to start and multiple ticket transactions to process. Not to mention the other domestic divisional finals. No need to panic just yet!
If your tickets haven't arrived by your desired date(!), you have a booking ref for your ticket transaction, ring the RFL and tell them your tickets are not with you and they should arrange for you to pick up a new pair at the matchday ticket office. The biggest inconvenience to you is you will have to arrive earlier and queue with other victims.
IIRC this happened to me at the recent Wembley double header. My Tickets hadnt arrived in the week leading up to the big day. I made a phone call and was advised to head for the ticket office on match day armed with identity and booking reference. Queue on the day wasn't too long. This time it probably will be....
No, I don't work for the RFL, but they must be up to their necks in the Ticket Office. Those at the top of the tree the Rimmers and Woods (pardon the pun) are deserving of brickbats for their own ineptitude and inabilty to run the game. Feel free to give them a hard time not the Workers.
My Double Header Tickets for Rugby World Cup 2013 Semi-final arrived last week, along with slick promo book for all the other matches and Venues. On the positive side what a fabulous festival of Rugby ( both codes) we have coming up this autumn.

If I left buying my tickets until I knew who was in the final, then I would have expected the response that I got. I ordered and paid for my tickets 3 weeks back, now maybe, only maybe mind, if they had got the tickets that were already bought dispatched then they would not have been that busy this week as they would only be dealing with those that left it until they knew if there team as going to be there!
Just a thought!!!

be interesting to see if my WC tickets turn up at same time

How hard is it to print 75,000 tickets once you know the date and venue of the event and despatch when they are purchased?
Apparently very!

Thang God the Warder will never be presented with such a dilemma!

I doubt it. I've got 24 tickets for the WC semis. I got 1 (yes one) last Friday, another 6 on Saturday and I'm still waiting for the rest.

It does help if you know who will be playing. Usually the team names are printed on the ticket. Also they like to sell tickets to Wigan fans and Wire fans as well as to "neutrals". They didn't know that it wasn't going to be Hudds vs Leeds until recently.

Not even the rfl are daft enough to wait until 6 days before an event to print and deliver 75000 tickets
6tg tickets don't have the team names on them I would suggest same will be said for wc final ticlets unless they already have aus nz on em
