So we dont really know how many have been sold then as Wigan have 4900 left and RFL have an unknown quantity left.

All we know is that total sales passed 15,000 a couple of weeks ago.

I reckon we will have sold 1,000 to 2,000 since that announcement, and with Wigan having 4,900 left there can only be 3k approx left with the RFL.

RFL must have given loads of tickets back to Wigan. Ticket site showing 2,600 seats left in the North stand and a similar amount over the rest of the ground with the west stand and south stand pretty much sold out and only round the edges left in the east.

So... we are soon going to hit 20k with sales hopefully and if its not a sell-out it will only be the North stand which has a few empty seats.

Well over 15,000 tickets had been sold 2 weeks ago and sales will only pick up after the Saints game. I am therefore confident of a sell out.

I'm still standing by my prediction - It WON'T sell out.

Spoil sport!

You're right though, it'll finish on around 23k IMO.

recieved my tickets in the post this morning!

It WONT sell out, well done the RFL!!!

how many have Leeds had on at Elland Road?

it's gonna be a real shame if we dont sell it out...que the mickey taking i fear.
probably quite rightly tbh

My ticket arrived with an advert asking me to buy tickets for the game. Clever!

2010 - 27,697 (Sunday 6pm)
2009 - 32,569 (Sunday 6:30pm)
2008 - 33,204 (Friday 8pm)
2005 - 37,208 (Friday 8pm - proceeded season commencing)

I think it could sell out yet. The trouble with this one though is the Magic Weekend is so close to it, bigger priority for most neutrals. The kick off time stinks though, that'll be the biggest factor in not selling out. Couldn't really avoid that though.

Has anyone seen marketing of any sort for this game around the town yet? That poster that was on here a couple of weeks back with legends through the years up to Sam at the front was quality, but I've only seen it on our own website and possibly in the RL papers/Rugby League World magazine. For fixtures like The Big One, Wigan have had posters up at various locations throughout the town as well as a couple of large billboards. So far for this one, I've seen no attempt from RFL to market the game to the town.

I agree there has not been much marketing to date and I would imagine the RFL are currently putting all their resources into plugging MM which I think will be a real flop in rip off Cardiff in cold February. However, I think a campaign will start from MM weekend on sky and around the town etc and this will ramp up sales as neutrals are likely to buy then.

Looking on our e -ticket site we have 4552 left in total (North 2613 left, South 342 left, West 341, East 1256). So we are currently averaging 127 tickets sold per day from Wigan (not sure how many the RFL are selling).
