So what’s the capacity of the north stand then?

How many have been sold for there? 2k?

It maybe sold out of allocated season tickets there could still be match day availability for walk ups as well

No.

It's sold out.

There are no tickets left for the NS. Of any kind.

Hopefully those that took up the offer of free children tickets bring the juniors to majority of games next season the first game I hope there is ole ry for the youngsters and teens that will be attending to make them want to return.

Fantastic, everyone

Unbelievable. Just shows you there is and always has been an appetite for RL in Wakefield. If we got over 5000 that would be monumental.

The squad is still incomplete so a few quality signings could be the push needed to reach the 5000 + sales.

If you’ve bought tickets for the North stand (and there’s room in the West stand) will you be allowed to have an afternoon in the West stand? Mix it up a bit?

I don’t blame you

I know the tickets are subsidised and that Matt Ellis has already pledged to spend a lot of money, however he must be massively encouraged by these season ticket numbers. It’s not just the enthusiasm being shown by the Trinity faithful, it’s also the fact that for everyone who buys a ticket there’s a projected profit from their association and attendance. Such things as buying a few drinks, pies, snacks, shirts & other merchandise. That extra good will and extra income might even persuade him to sign someone extra special to round out the squad.

Like some others have said, I’m not sure what to make of this upward surge by the club, it’s so out of character

I think the main thing is that those buying or receiving tickets actually turn up on match day.

Exactly, if anywhere near the numbers turn up it will be a great success. If we end up with a half empty north stand then there are learnings to be had.

Until home game one we won’t see exactly how successful this new model is. The proof will be in the pudding I guess.

Hopefully the remaining 1000 tickets in the East stand can be sold.

A process whereby the free junior tickets have to be confirmed a week before the match else they go back on general sale could work.
