| What are peoples thoughts about the ticket prices for the Challenge Cup game vs North Wales Crusaders?
Adult - £15
Concession - £10
Under 16's - £3
This game was free last year but apprently discounted as an RFL initiative, so why cant the club follow suit? - The only answer I have had is that it doesnt make good business sense 'gave me a warm fuzzy wanted feeling inside'

| Quite happy - got our two usual seats for £15. Why would you expect to get in for free? Nice of the RFL to provide the dela last year but I don't expect Wigan to lose money.

| Given the situation over at odsal maybe it's best the lubs are charging for this game. It's also good for crusaders who will make money from the tie as I'm sure it's a 50/50 split on the takings in cup games. The free tickets was something the lower league sides were against as they didn't make any money. For me all SL sides should be away from home in the fourth round as a way of spreading the wealth

| ST holders can get them for £10 prior to this weekend can't we?
Thats fine by me. I actually thought the free tickets was a really poor idea because the lower league clubs were missing out on big pay days that can keep them going.

Adults £10
Concessions £5
U16s free
Good value I think

| I think the prices are fine, especially for season ticket holders. Don't understand why they've bothered with reserved seating though.

| Tenner is spot on for ST holders.
Mind you, reading this forum is the first I've seen of it.

They have probably chosen reserved seating in case most ST holders attending want to sit in their usual seat. I was asked when buying tickets whether I wanted our usual seats. We are sitting where we always do (so my little nephew gets an unrestricted view) and many others may want to do the same. For example if they have a reserved seat low in the stand as they can't manage to walk up many steps.
I doubt the stands will be full so people can easily move around to empty seats once the game starts.

Yeh that's what I was meaning really, there are going to be that many free seats on both sides. Having reserved seats just means that groups of mates have to buy all their tickets together as opposed to them all just buying their own. Like you say it won't matter really as people will just move. I thought they'd have arranged it in the same way as the Lockers testimonial game, which had the same 2 stands closed as will be on Sunday but was unreserved. (and I'd expect a similar sized crowd tbh).

| Good that they are reduced price but I would still prefer to be behind the sticks rather than in the East Stand.

| A bit strange that it is reserved seating when they have closed the South Stand. Meaning South Stand season ticket holders, if they want to pre-buy, are likely to have poor seats and have to buy in groups instead of just getting their tickets whenever.
