Quote ="Stu M"What's the big deal? Everyone knows when it is being played and where. Its at the DW. If they had started to sell tickets now then people would've moaned its an unecessary expense in the lead up to Christmas. Sell them in Feb when people have been paid again in January and recovered from Christmas.
You can still look forward to a game without an actual ticket. I think everyone that wants to go will be able to get a ticket and I would be surprised if it was a complete sell out. Will be 20k plus but I don't think it will sell out.'"
Don't bother selling tickets for a prestige game announced in November until three weeks before it's played? Why?
By that logic I agree with you when you say "I would be surprised if it was a complete sell-out". It's certainly a very rugby league view of it, based in the parochial view that everyone lives an hour from the stadium, doesn't need to make any plans and the aim isn't to sell out as soon as possible.
