| 4 of us going.
Son had an accident last week and is on crutches - tried to contact Widnes re access but no-one got back to me...... could anyone let me know if we can get him in without going up/down steps?
Thank you

If you go to the gates on the corner then the stewards should let you in there.

I'll be joining you in the North. Just been onto Widnes ticket office who said that Wigan fans have got a block of seats in the North East end of that stand.

It's unreserved in the entire stand but Wigan fans are being directed to the easterly end, I believe.

Matt, what's it like for flags at the back of the East. Are there advertisment boards to contend with or is it straighforward to hang them up?

There are a couple of big advertising boards at the back (including one for M&S Widnes - why the bloody hell would M&S want a store in Widnes?!) so there's only space for a couple, I'd imagine - we stick ours in the block nearest to the North Stand as that's usually netted off for our visits but that won't be the case tonight.

| Quote: Pie Eyed "Why bother?
Wembley will NEVER sell out for the CC Final.
I'd rather wait until we know whether or not we're in the final, then buy a ticket from the Wigan Ticket Office, at face value, to be sat with the rest of the Wigan fans.
This might be a good idea for other events, but I'm sorry - I just fail to see the point for the CC Final.
Plus, if we DON'T make the final, then the only person to gain from it is Todd, as only the fans of the 2 finalists get the tickets. The rest lose their "deposit" as I understand it from the FAQ's.'"
The CC final has always been sold out. But besides that, you save a lot of fuss - and get tickets right behind the sticks, which is fantastic! And the total price is no more than the face value ticket and I don't have to mess around at the Wigan ticket office: they are sent directly to my home.
Plus if you don't want to risk all your money up front for a ticket to a game that you don't want to see, then this is a great idea.

But it is an idea that Saints have been doing for their fans for a few seasons now. They called it the "what if? scheme" I think. They do it for free as well, if they get to the semi finals then they register their details with the St Helens club to lay claim to a ticket and if they get to Wembley the booking is processed. If they lose the semi it goes in the bin and the fan loses no money. This is a scheme that I would not be surprised to see the very savvy people now running Wigan copy. Even if they don't then as a season ticket holder I would be surprised if I was unable to secure a ticket from Wigan should we make it to the final.

Wembley capacity: 90,000
2009 attendance 76,560
2008 " 82,821
2007 " 84,241
Twickenham capacity 82,000
2006 att: 65,187
Prior to that, we almost filled Cardiff on two out three finals, but that only has a 74,500 capacity.
Before that, the last time the "old" Wembley was anywhere near full was in 1988.

It did, but we never filled it, consistently around the 77k mark IIRC.
