The typical profile of rugby league fan worries me now. Our sport is fair with its prices considering its elite, top-level sport and it you compare it to other sports.

This is this the biggest game of the SL season and is sure to be a fantastic contest with the winner getting to the Grand Final.

Despite all this, people still harping on about costs of tickets etc. It's pathetic, Union got over 30,000 fans for Samoa v USA game the other day and even over 10,000 for Tonga Georgia. Our games on its

First of all you were worried and virtually convinced the game wouldn't be held at the DW because of the Latics factor. Numerous pages of rubbish written for no reason.
Now some faux outrage that the club hasn't sold a gazillion tickets to a game they had less than a week to.promote etc.
How dare the club put something on the website saying tickets were going fast, I mean I do t seem.to recall at any poi t the club saying Panic there's not many left?
Now as for jammed phone lines and websites crashing I'm sure that's a slight exaggeration especially when considering that anyone with half an ounce of nouse could have worked out that at worst there'd be 10k tickets left but yet decide to panic Saturday and Sunday because theyre Sat hovering over a computer or telephone over a problem that won't exist.
Then complaining about having to queue up for pre ordered tickets because someone wants to just turn up on the day and pay!
How dare they turn up on the day and pay, I mean it's not like in the next breathe someone going to be moaning that there wasn't enough people at the game is it?
Oh wait!
I'm a season ticket holder and my mates who are also rang me Monday night and asked what we're doing. No panic over weekend, I just told em I couldn't go Tuesday so would pick them up Wednesday. Still got the discount (Thank you club) and my kids only have to pay £5 each for a semi final (Thank you club) and they didn't charge me £2 extra because I went down there. Now your not telling me that you couldn't have got down there at some point in those 5 days are you to take advantage of those 2 great offers from the club?
I'm assuming your a ST holder? I mean we wouldn't want any non ST holders coming would we?

God help us tomorrow and all next week if we do win.
It's almost enough to Make me want to lose so we don't have to put up with this!
I'll predict threads galore about :_
can't get through on phones
Can't log on to website
Numerous threads about how many tickets we've sold and how many are left which will all be wrong
We should have a points system for those who go to away games but aren't ST holders
Why can ST holders get 4 x tickets each it's not fair
It's all the fault of that bl00dy millwall game
Etc.etc.

And guess what? Everyone who wants one will get one and there won't be an issue and most like game won't sell.out

As for won't get fooled again, well some people seem to get fooled too easily on a regular basis when i suspect no-one was trying to fool anyone in the first place.

Did the club not waive the £2 internet charge for this game . I didn't get charged it .

Regards , EW

you only get charged if you have no printer and they have to print them..admin fee they call it...rip off I call it

Speaking of tickets, I've got a spare one in the South stand if anyone wants it - face value

Only 2 of my gang of 5 will be there.
Reasons for missing it (probably common ones for a lot of people), are a combination of these:
1. It's work today and tomorrow.
2. It's Thursday. Can't get away from work early like Fridays.
3. We are ST holders and don't want to pay for an extra game.
4. It's on tv.
5. It's GF next week (if we win) and that's more expensive but one that we are prepared to pay for as it's GF.

Not my words -- I'll be there. But people are entitled to make choices about how they spend their time and money. I know that none of us likes Thursday games and all believe STs should cover all games. Friday and 'free', and I guess all would have attended.

I was just about right with my prediction that we'd break 5 figures - 10,035

About 3,500 down on this season's average, but no doubt there'll be a hefty queue for tickets tomorrow!

Pleasantly surprised with the crowd tbh. It's not great but it's better then some of our recent play off crowds when you consider the away following was only 12-1500 or so.

Play off attendances are a problem across the board.

Not bad for a Thursday night playoff.

Looked grim as I entered the ground tonight about 7:20 but started to fill up a bit. To be honest I thought it was a bit more at the time.

Sorry but "we are. ST holders and don't want to pay for an extra game" sounds pretty sad to me.

If paying 20 quid to see your team reach a GF is too much trouble...
Sure, people are entitled to spend their hard-earned how they choose. What they're not entitled to do is call themselves fans if that's their attitude.
