RFL have been giving tickets away for free or heavily discounted this morning if you use code Good100 . I got 3 x £55 tickets in the Wigan end for £70 instead of £165 . Pretty poor from RFL after selling tickets to supporters at full price . People on social media going mental . Think the code has been removed

Seems to have been an error on somebodies part. Poor all the same but I’m relieved it isn’t an actual strategy. Quite a few tickets in our end were released yesterday by the RFL and on every other row, so it doesn’t bode well.

Looking like the lowest crowd ever, we must be the only sport on the planet that can't sell out a cup final

Didn’t we announced we sold just shy of 8k ages ago?

Sales must have ground to a halt as I’ve not seen any 10k posts.

All of the bitching and jumping to conclusions on Twitter was hilarious though.

It wasn’t an error, it as was promo for a small number of people who work for the NHS or are in the forces that was made public. Invalid purchases are being cancelled.

Anyone know how you get tickets if ordered on line from the club?

Wondering the same. It says they’ll be processed at least 7 days before kick off but still not received them.

Looks that way doesn’t it?

I don't really give a damn about the size of the crowd. or "what it says about the state of rugby league". They play in massive half-empty stadia in the NRL week in week out, and nobody says they're on their uppers. I just want to see Wigan win the Cup again!

Imagine they'll be processed from today and sent out this week.

Yet they still sell out the Grand Finals and SOO.

For me the location is key, once they realised they fooked up the Wembley date they should have moved the final to the Emirates or even take it to Cardiff again.

Makes no sense to suggest Emirates when its being played at Tottenham.

Same for Cardiff, its still miles away and just as expensive to get to.

Etihad is close enough to Hudds and Wigan to travel on the day, thus ensuring plenty more ticket sales.

Cardiff has a vast amount of cheap hotels in the region, and feels like a city centre atmosphere and good rail links in and out.

SPurs is in a rich area, high tourism, high cost, difficult to get to on away days and miles from Hudds and Wigan.

Also, the Etihad is only 55,000, will look much fuller with lower crowds.
