so the East Stand (from left to right, South to North) has Saints Fans to the left of the stand, then the usual Wigan Fans then more Saints fans to the right of the stand? i know the North is shut, seems a littel strange to split them up though?

the semi final and final will be on the telly too...........by that logic the people who cba going tomorrow, and couldnt ba going to fev, presumably wont ba going to the semi and wembley should we get there?

thought not..............VOUCHERS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Maybe not the semi, but they'll all want final tickets.

Spot on. If we had 3 weeks to market this game, without the crap with the stadium and if it was the first time we had played each other for a good while.... it would probably be further towards 20k... especially with the North stand ipen.

My thoughts exactly. We are playing each other 3 times in 2 months. Some will already have forked out a fair portion of their wages for MM before this game was announced. In a way the one stand being closed is probably a saving grace as it will make the rest of the stands look fuller.

Then add to it all the other stuff recession etc, then you can see why. But even 14k would be no bad effort given the conditions. Take out people who have paid for MM, then you could add a couple of thousand more.
