But the club only ever accounted for 14 home games when they priced the season ticket, with the 15th being a bonus if we reached the top 4. There are plenty of reasons why this London game isn't a good idea, but to suggest it's ripping off season ticket holders is way wide of the mark IMO, especially as the ticket for the game is included and they are putting on free travel for ST holders.

You can't really have a go at the club for you going on holiday can you?

surely even for 12/13 home game sthe price you have paid for your season tickets greatly trumps what it would have cost per single game paying at the gate for a family of four, so that there is the point of a season ticket. I'm not a current holder but have been for a number of years in the past and there is always the gamble of losing one game due to holidays or last minute emergencies but even taking them into account, I always made a saving on pay at the gate prices. heck I used to offer my ticket to a friend or family member from the good ness of my heart for any I couldn't make.

you are technically really only missing one game, the Catalans fixture now being played in London, as you have planned a holiday which is causing you to miss the other match so it is not the clubs fault!

I think the concept is pretty stupid as a fan but its not just about us, the club needs sponsors as does the game need coverage, so all in all and considering the club is offering free tickets and travel for ST holders you can't really complain.

ultimately not everyone is going to be able to make this London fixture and the club cannot satisfy every single fan all of the time - unfortunately!

There is a note saying " the free travel is subject to limitations " yet to be explained, I understand about the cost it is the 2 points and giving away home advantage that I object to, I wonder how the players really feel having worked all season to get home advantage for the extra game ( 4 ) and see it thrown away.

Catalans are in 8th place and in the UK they have only managed a win (Wakefield) and a draw (Huddersfield) from 13 games, including a 34-0 hammering from us. I'd also bet that they will be mathematically out of reach of the top 4 by the time we play them. Not saying it's in the bag but it's not something I'm more worried about pointwise than usual.

As for how the players feel, I'm fairly sure if you were to ask them "Why have you worked all season to make the top 4?" they would say "To make the play offs." which is the real benefit.

Would think the limitations will be that free travel will be from the Wigan area only . Cant see them putting a bus on for me and the Lad lol .

Never mind Flights down and up on the same day already booked . Giants on the Thursday is a bigger pain in the backside .

EW, send IL a copy of your flight tickets, you never know.

Think i will save on the stamp for that one . Nice thought tho'

are any of the games still subject to sky moving them or are they now set in stone and won't be altered

I already said I took a gamble and lost.
We're stuck with holidays during the 6 week's school holidays, slap bang in Super 8's season. Will learn from it next time!

The fact we have an extra game built into the price of the ticket is pretty irrelevant, Wigan will be finishing in top four during most seasons.

Did [iyou [/ireally have to say that ?! That's the same as "Nothing can go wrong now".

The amount of travel you and Ross do, they should take you on the team bus and put you up in a hotel.

OR throw you in the back of George and Roys kit van.

Not set in stone as on Fri 25/9/15 show all 4 matches with 8PM kick off and no SKY game that weekend so presume something will change

All of the Sky games have been confirmed apart from the last round. Seems they're all being played at the same time which is a good idea. Not sure how that will work on TV? Maybe there'll be red button options to pick which game you want to watch?

I suppose they're hoping for a nail-biting finish on the final day like they do with the football relegation. But it may be pretty much all cut and dried by then.
