| Quote: Wigan28/Leeds18 Andy "Biggest game of the SL season, season on the line and it'll be our lowest SL attendance by some distance.
You've gotta love RL fans.'" You are correct but I can understand some of the sentiment being expressed. It's a bit like being in a darts and dominoes team, spending your hard earned all year in the same pub and then the landlord charging for the buffet. If I ruled the world, entrance at these games would be no more than a fiver for all season ticket holders and anyone with 10 ticket stubs. Either that or give the same people a free token for pie and a pint/coffee/pop etc. Even a tiny bit of appreciation goes a long way. The way things are being done, it's as if the RL are treating us in the same way the energy companies treat their customers, as cash cows.

| 5693 unavailable seats as at tonight. I'm not sure if thats how many have been sold, or whether some of those seats were never available.
Its hardly an inspiring figure, even if all those seats were actually sold. The take-up of Saints tickets in the latter half of the week was pretty poor, so even an 8,000 crowd may be optimistic.

| I haven't bought a season ticket since we were at Central Park, because i was shocked that we could be charged extra for the Play off games although i have been to most play off games at home including the infamous first ever game at the JJB when we got turned over by Cas, but i will be watching Sunday's game on TV

29281_1270406980.jpg When Maurice sold me to Leeds something changed, it just not the same, the passion inside me just wasn’t the same as running out at Central park for my hometown club.
We need a change of culture here; we don’t want to be just happy with playing ok on Saturday at St Helens.
Ill make sure that from now on things will change, that players will be under pressure and will train a lot harder than they have before.

| Family of 4 sitting in their usual seats in the east for the stains and cats game would need to find £128!!!!!
Those people that live in the real world totally understand that fans will be missing due to financial constraints..

which is part of the reason why i am missing, at the end of the day if fans potentially have to pay for saints, catalans, saints/wire, grand final less than a month after the cup final alot of people just cannot find the money to go to all of these games.

| How the RFL think people can afford to pay for 2/3 games @ £20 on the bounce that are live on sky then a potential GF!
Coming the month after they have wanted them to pay for 2/3 cup games at similar prices plus any away league games added that season tickets will be announced very soon!
RFL want to spread the game so not sure how pricing out the heart fans helps!

EN block which is normally 40% is 74%
South..usually @30% or less....60%
North...closed
West availabily ..lots....and most of the taken seats are corporate.
looking like 8,000 max

| If you beat Catalans on Sunday then you will face us at the Stobart the following Saturday. You are having to pay full price for your game at home and then if you come to the stobart you will have to pay full price again. i.e. behind the sticks £20 and North Stand it is £25. there are Sen/junior concessions North stand concessions are £19 not sure of the East or West stand concessions though. I dread to think what price we will have to pay next year in our new ground. Why can't the RFL let us all have cheaper tickets like they do for the early CC games. It is much better to see big crowds than big empty spaces.

well said! i'm in two minds whether to go, one for the monetary reason and two because i have no money!
its a shame, i'm no season ticket holder and i'll admit to missing a few games this year, but even for fans like myself who just go when they can make it or can afford to, the game should be glamourising the playoffs if thats how they want the champions to be decided, not continually asking the people who keep them in their jobs to pay out extra on these so called "extra" games.
i do agree that season ticket holders or fans who can validate their attendance at 10+ home games etc should be entitled to at least one freebie or discount of some sort. maybe thats something the marketing gurus at wigan will decide upon next year when they realise we'll more than likely be ending the season in front of our lowest crowd. and that ISN'T due to the team we are facing. i reckon we wouldn't get much more than we did against saints last week if this was our last chance and we were playing them or wire. shame really but totally understandable from a fans' point of view.
RFL = Grrrrr!!!

Definetly. Reckoning up on our current path to Old Trafford - if we did make it you'd be looking at £200 ish on tickets/travel from Wembley to Old Trafford including home/away games in between that require paid on tickets. That's a massive ask in a 6 week spell for anyone, let alone families!
That's probably a generous estimate at £200 as well when you add on drinking, eating, travelling etc etc.
Then when Old Trafford is done the club will be flapping our letter boxes for another £200ish for next years season tickets and the RFL will want us to attend the same old boring tri/four nations matches as well.
It really is too much!
