Doubt the RFL or Wire going for that but i get your point.

If it holds just shy of 14k both clubs will more then likely get 6,500 ish with a few being held back for the club that sells out the quickest.

Both clubs get same amount of tickets to sell - irrespective of season ticket numbers. Its only when a club doesnt sell its allocation then the other one can "request" them to sell as there own.

Fair or not - thats how it will be

As I said before, though. There will be a lot of people thinking that it's not even worth the bother trying to get tickets, as there won't be enough of them.

Those who don't have season tickets, for instance (like me), have to make do with what is left, and the supporters who would just turn up on the day, won't.

I know the semi didn't sell last time but back then it fell a week after Easter in which we'd been to Saints away and played Wire at home and also they had about 2 and half weeks to sell tickets.

Saints away or a wire cup semi? If you can only afford one of them?

This time there are going to be about 9 weeks to sell tickets (which won't be needed). Thats a massive difference. Personally I think the tickets will sell out within a day or two (maybe less).

Us Wigan fans are much more hungry starved for cup success than we were in 2004, when we'd won it two years previous and also at that time had, had three Grand Finals in 4 years.

the semi venue as been decided so stop the WHINGING

Didn't know about the Ashes game

And Heaven forbid that we are made to travel for an hour?!?!

Has it? Thought it wasnt annouced yet as both clubs still involved in discussions. Have you got a link please?

i did hear a rumour Anfield was being mentioned but pretty much dismissed it straight away.

Exactly.

Annoyance is forbidden on this forum. Ridiculous decisions by the RFL MUST be happily accepted in all circumstances. No dissent is permissable at all - or else Mr. Frisk will get on his high horse.

That was 5 years ago , both teams have improved since then , we took nearly 10k to our last semi , why would we only sell 7k this time?

I can't believe anyone is surprised at this?

It was always going to be at Widnes as it's the only other RL ground anywhere near both clubs which doesn't look like a total sh*thole.

Making us travel would have worked, but the RFL are clueless.

Queue up, if it sells out, then b*tch.

Problem is you cant make people see what they dont want to see

Yeah but why do the RFL want to stop people going to a game. The CC is on its as it is - now they want to stop neutrals and non season ticket holders going to a big game

Because the RFL are clueless f*ckwits.

Best you* can do is sell out Widnes.

*I'll be on the other side of the world and won't be making the 18000 mile round trip

Decision has not yet been made as to venues or which day we play
