| Quote: Geoff "Exactly. Most of us (and most Saints posters) will go, but we're not representative of the average fan.
Driving is all very well, but I normally go by train (so I can drink!), and it's 10 minutes v 1.5 hours (+ at least one change).
If there was no option, fair enough, but the HJ is perfectly feasible.'"
....and small time and damaging to the games image for a show piece semi final!!
Take on what the other poster was saying about petrol but 92 miles will cost you what £15 tops. Youd be paying for the ticket regardless even if it was at wire, and you'd still have a round trip of say 24 miles to travel costing you up to a fiver.
So basically, your quibling about a tenner!! And given RL ticket prices are far from riddiculous as the other poster seems to suggest, but are actually riddiculously cheap for the product your getting.....compare to what you pay to watch a drab game of soccer where you'll be lucky to get change from 50 quid for a ticket, and no family deals to get your kids in.
Top marks to the RFL if theve gone for Huddersfield IMO - Its realistically the most sensible option. Petty the RFL cant make it so easy and accessible for everyone and just play it on your doorstep at the JJB to save you the epically long journey of up to an hour and a half with that taxing change of train!!- that said some would probably then complain about having to walk, and what happens if its raining and they get wet!!
If we get to Wembley I just hope and pray the RFL switch the game to the LSV because that 200 miles is far too far to go for a showpiece final

Just e-mailed my last minute request to the RFL to ask them to play it on my local park as if its anywhere else it may be too far away and I may not be able to attend. Hope they'll be able to accomodate me and ensure this game is accessible!

| Cant see an announcement being made now tbh so expect it will be tomorrow
Either somethings not gone to plan at the RFL or wigan have got it wrong. Heavily suspect it will be the former, particulary when you look how the respective organisations are run.
Knowing the RFL, they'll have probably forgotten to do something ruddimentary like check Huddersfield Town werent playing on the saturday when making provisional checks for the semi final venues (thats if they even did the provisional checks in the first place, which it wouldnt surpise me if they didnt). Bunch of clowns!

Not all of us are lucky enough to live in Wigan. It's nearly 80 miles for me. I'd actually rather it be played at Wembley.

Nah, not just yesterday. For most of the last hundred years.
