Ignore people saying it's rough (I live 10 minutes walk away). Granted it's not the most scenic place in the World but any potential for problems are restricted to football really (although I can vouch for the intimidation factor of the football games) - otherwise just exercise normal common sense and it'll be fine, there are far worse areas in Wigan.

Logistically it's reasonably accessible, there's a train station next to the ground as mentioned, and the Overground (a train that stops as often as an Underground tube for the uninitiated) is about a 10/15 minute walk away. In fact it's much more accessible from Euston than any of the venues London Broncos have used in the past decade or more. It's half surrounded by an industrial estate so for a smaller event parking shouldn't be a problem.

There aren't many great boozing options though...

Still think Loftus Road or Craven Cottage would be a better option for RL in London.

To be fair, the 20% discount applies to everyone if you buy before a certain date. Wigan offered the discount, Super League are simply passing on the message.

I would hazard a guess at around 7 to 8k.

They're also now 2-for-1 on Ticketmaster. Say 2000 season ticket holders and maybe 500 free corporate tickets, really can't see another 5000 paying to go.

I agree with you. And just because people have snapped up free tickets and travel doesn't mean they will definitely attend. I reckon there will be plenty of no shows at 7 o clock on a Saturday morning.

It has been asked on the London Broncos site if your going to repeat your home game in London next season. In addition do Wigan still have their office in Buckingham Palace Rd?

IL has said that a "regular season" game will likely be down there (which hasn't gone down well in many quarters), but where & when nothing further. And I think the B/Palace rd office is part of the Business Club & Lenagan's continued world domination policy - so likely.
