Quote: MattyB "I think its unfair to compare us to say Liverpool, whilst they may have had three trips to Wembley, its likely the majority of those crowds won't necessarily be the same supporters over the three games (apart from the few thousand mega rich ones). They could fill their allocations made up of non season ticket holders who have purchased their match tickets from regular season ticket holders or touts. Not many working class lads can afford three Wembley matches, a season ticket, champions league final tickets.... Unless they are drug dealers or their missus is on OnlyFans.'"


There will be plenty that have done them all. I know someone who watches them home and away and he is certainly not "mega rich".

At least going to Spurs, nobody can moan about the M62.

Bizarrely there isn't a link to buy tickets for the Cup final through the ticketing webpage nor are the club promoting it with a banner on the main webpage. The only link is via the news item released earlier today saying tickets had been put on general sale.

7,300 is a decent number at this stage though, especially as it won't include RFL sales.

Just seen the 7,300 quote from the club. Pretty happy with that after 3 days and us not having not long since set up the new ticketing system. There doesn’t look to be loads left on the ticket site as well, so whilst it might not be the old days of 30,000+ going down to London, it’ll be a healthy number when you factor in the RFL sales and what we sell from now on.

Neutrals would certainly not be intrigued by the stadium. In fact I would have gone if Wembley, as my sister lives near there!
Think most neutrals would have preferred Wembley, though I may have a late change of heart as Hudds is my home town club and good to see them going well…….

Agree, the page is not that easy to find, and I was specifically looking for it.

Can't even buy more than one coach ticket via the website now either. Wigan really don't help themselves sometimes.

Anyone who can afford to own a Liverpool season ticket, watch them at every/most away league games, cup games, European matches home and away along with semi final and finals tickets then good luck to you... you ain't brassic.

Contacted someone at the club and they've fixed this now.

Club have been granted an additional allocation, that's good news at least in terms of the crowd size.

Good to hear. There’s been a worrying lack of updates from the other clubs playing on the day but hopefully sales are going well everywhere. You’d like to think we can fill the place but that might be unrealistic. In terms of it looking good for tv and there being a good atmosphere, it would be nice to at least get above 50,000.

The stadium itself should encourage some neutrals.

Especially with it being a one off.

I've been to plenty of Challenge Cup Finals, but I've never been to one from Wigan before. Naturally, I resent the early start! icon_biggrin.gif

I used to to live (only) 100 miles from London, and it was an an easy zap down the M4 on my bike. But of course, I'm really looking forward to it, and it will be great to make the trip with other Wigan fans.
