What did the guy on the microphone say about tickets for the game?
im was completely blanked with my mind only on my pie at this point :')

i thought we could just pay on the gate....although i wasnt at the game today (family visit)

On sale from Wigan Ticket office now.

Got mine today.

Guy announced that concession tickets were £12 but I was charged £13 for mine. Adults are £18!

Shocking prices!!!!

are they still doing the junior swaps?

Ticket prices as noted above, but, they will NOT be selling concession tickets on the day at Salford, just full price tickets. SO if you want a Junior/Student/OAP/Disabled ticket you have to book in advance.

I would assume that they have to.

In effect, the junior season-ticket holders have already bought their ticket (albeit that it's provided by the RFL), so they cannot refuse to accept them.

The only time that that would be acceptable would be if they sold out the ground.

They are doing junior swaps on the day as I took two junior books to be swapped today and was told to exchange them at Salford on the day

thank you very much

Thanks mate!

If the game is not all ticket, which it isn't, are Salford allowed NOT to do Concessions on the gate?

Salford have a system where you have to buy concession tickets from the ticket office before going to the turnstile, but they are available on matchday in that system IIRC.

Make up your own minds about what this suggests about Salford's relationship with it's turnstile operators....

Once bitten, twice shy - several Salford turnstiles operators in the past have been complete tools so the club are right in their stance.

One the bright side, you can still pay at the turnstile - not true of all RL grounds, eh Matt???


Advise to any Wigooners who want to come with kids' season tickets - get there early! You'll need to swap them at the ticket office and there are always hefty queues, especially as KO approaches.

I think the message was (or at least should've been) that you can only pay £18 at the cash turnstiles on the day.

Juniors/Students/OAPs/Disabled CAN pay on the day, but will have to queue at the ticket office to buy a ticket, which can then be taken to a ticket turnstile. As this takes a while (and Juniors/OAPs/Disabled may well not be up to the wait especially if it rains, as the queues for tickets are not covered) it is strongly advised that those want a Junior/Student/OAP/Disabled ticket book in advance.

Hope that clarifies things, see you on Sunday!

Thanks for clearing that up, see you Sunday, should be a good game, may the best team win.

Yes, same here for the concessions in our group. I reluctantly handed over an extra quid to my mate who had bought them, thinking he was swindling me until I saw the printed ticket!

Salford's site confirms that £13 is their standard concession (only £7 if you're a family member, which costs £50 for a whole family - quite a good package when you throw in free shirts, free Magic tickets and stuff) so obviously we're advertising it wrong. Mistakes happen, though, when you're only given the tickets at the last minute and have to throw the info together!
