For one thing it makes a statement about club support.

| I have to say this one thing & it probably won't be popular but I've been sat in the East stand for quite a few years now & really enjoyed it apart from the wooden pillows you had to look around but that wasn't too hard. Now this season I bought some great seats near the centre line & haven't seen a try this year when we get a break through or near the line everybody is standing up even tho everybody has great view without moving a muscle well not everybody it does seem to be the ex north standers Why is this they have a brilliant view without moving a muscle I know I'm moaning but I've paid as well & not as mobile as I use to be people just don't seem to care.

It is the natural reaction when something exciting happens to stand up, it is the same at football and rugby union as well as most other sports.

| Quote: upthetrin92 "In my opinion, season tickets will sell well. Matt has created a good thing and the marketing isn't required at the moment, people are riding the wave. Due to the lack of capacity people will feel the need to get one, creating a 'demand'. The northstand and east will sell well.
Not sure I understand this, what club doesn't need fans money?
"The lack of the club "needing" our cash is, strangely, a bit of a loss and caused a slight bit of separation between club and fans imho."'"
I did find it a very strangely negative post. We have afterall come off the back of best retail sales this year and highest ST sales in some time coupled with 3 trophies.

I also have seats in the same area and can’t say I’ve experienced the same. We have seen every break and every try this year with no people standing through the game. Not noticed it around us either bar a very few ocassions.
Perhaps the poster has just got unlucky there’s a few excites or fans in front of them.

| We stand in the North stand but I find it odd when people don't stand up if there's an attacking play, maybe just me

| Maybe we should have a 'strictly remain seated' section, with those bars they use on roller coasters to stop you jumping up. Toilet breaks might be an issue, but we could insist on compulsory catheterisation to, erm, relieve that issue. I noticed there was actually some noise coming from that stand as well...completely out of order, if you want to stand up or make a noise you should be in the North Stand.

| It was always the same when a try was being or nearly scored in old east stand. It's just the excitment and anticipation.
No problem with that, but do object to people standing throughout the game and blocking the view.

| The view from the Fox stand is superb.
We're usually in the North stand but, sat in the Fox Stand for a couple of cup games and the Wigan pre season game.
It's a pain when people get up to use the toilets but, as a viewing experience, its as good as anywhere in Rugby League.
As for new season tickets, it will be interesting to see whether they are still cheap (to fill the place) or, whether they are closer to other SL clubs.
Everyone who has had the pleasure of watching this season should be renewing, partly as a thank you but, more importantly, to give Matt Ellis the confidence to keep spending on improving the ground.
Its still incredible to think where we were 12 months ago and where we are now. Incredible !

Increase in costs to a more realistic price
No junior freebies
Loss of regular Sunday games.
The club don't really need the cash upfront nowadays.
I'll be getting mine as per usually for convenience throughout the season including certainty of entry when there's a chance of a full house v some clubs.
I didn't buy any gear or replica shirt, other than the Matty Ashurst one, this year for the 1st time in decades.

Pretty much no one knows whether any of those things are true. It’s likely they’ll go up a bit, but I don’t think it’ll be significant enough to put this season’s members off. If we sell less adult season tickets this year I’ll eat a north stand urinal cake.

| Also, the club does need our money. IMG rewards diverse investment.
