So what's the crack? Are we looking at Wigan having a small allocation here or are we looking at a decent crowd here for the Sunday.?

Head on holiday 7 days later so anything other than 1/2 price won't attract me

Could be either but I'm assuming our tickets have been snapped up like hotcakes and we'll have a good following there.

I left it too late for the half price unreserved tickets as well - my own fault as the lady in the ticket office warned me they didn't have many left when I picked up my Saints tickets a few weeks ago. Rather than pay £22.50 for a reserved seat for one day, I got a 2 day unreserved ticket for the same price. Wasn't planning to go on Saturday and I still might not. I don't have good luck with buying reserved tix from the club - I usually end up sat in the middle of Thatto Heath A team's away day trip

Anybody heading into the city centre prior to the game? I was thinking a few scoops in the Oyster Bar etc before making my way out to the game

We'll be heading there. Probs have a few there then head up the pubs round piccadilly then onto the ground

Any wigan fans doing the weekend?

Which end are we making for, reckon it will be Wigan & Bradford one end, Stains & Leeds the other.

which section we going in for the unreserved? Wigan fans heading behind the sticks?

Just got a good deal on 4 tickets via rugbyleaguetickets.co.uk

Playing Saints for the third time in 7 weeks. Just can't get excited...

The way the team are playing its exciting no matter who we're playing !

Think about these boards if we lose, think about the stick you will get off saints fans if we lose. Think about the bragging you can do for beating them 3 times in 7 weeks! Think about the banter in the stadium if we beat them! How can you not get excited and up for a game against saints?

Partly because I can't go because I'm on holiday, also partly because we played Saints 6 times last year, this will be our third of 4 this year, and we could potentially also play them twice in the playoffs again. We're playing them too many times.

I agree with Katrina. I only got excited for the cup game 2 minutes before kick off. The novelty has worn off recently.

I cant wait to get hold of them and smash them again. They wont be looking forward to it so i am

Whilst I dont get as excited as I do for Good Friday, I fully agree. I'd much rather have the 2 points next week then the week after at Leeds.

Is the unreserved tier at the etihad one big concourse or is it sectioned off in parts?

They have doors similar to most footy grounds that can be locked/unlocked accordingly. I presume it will be fully open at weekend.

Ahh good, Wigan fans heading for the south end?

If we were losing then I would agree but as we now have the upper hand how can you not enjoy beating them again and again?

This is the point exactly. People need to remember back to the years from 2005-2009 when we beat them twice from memory! You would have taken a GF win against them, followed by a challenge cup SF win, and a cup QF win... not to mention the last game at Knowsley road and the first game at their new home.... how can you get bored of that after what we went through... the 75-0, losing in the play-offs, a couple of shocking displays in Cardiff.... lets enjoy the moment, we are on top of them at the moment, lets enjoy it. I never heard saints fans saying they were bored of beating us for those years we didn't have a good side.

Another thing to consider is that they will be much harder to beat next season than this season with Brown going to saints as coach.

This is also a massive game for the table, wire are certain to get a win at the weekend and they could go ahead of us by a point.

Nah, we maybe RL fans but we can remember back further than one game and bar TP, not much has changed in the last week. Check the first 15 mins of the Saints Wigan CC game and the game tonight, very little difference in our play.

Wigan to win for me and I'm not that bothered, we need to build and it will take more than 2 weeks. If we are close come playoffs the coaching team deserve a medal.

Saints played well last night,should be a great game at the weekend.Saints claim to have shifted more tickets after last night - rugbyleaguetickets.co.uk

Saints look a decent outfit aside from the Wigan games under Rush. They know they've haven't produced in the two games against us this year and will target Sunday as a game to get them back in people's thoughts when it comes to who they think can win the grand final.

It'll be the best derby so far this year IMO.
