To everyone who are going on the trip tomorrow with the Dons. Mines a Pint.

Why did the RFL & the media keep saying it was a sell out crowd even the BBC in there match commentary said there wasn't a ticket to be had anywhere yet there were quite a number of empty red seats on show unless of course they had been purchased by people who didn't turn up on the day.

The seats you refer to Geoff are the WEMBLEY CLUB seats, bought by people or companys for a 5 year period it would appear that a few are not RUGBY LEAGUE fans. After saying that it was a great atmosphere and a record crowd for the new wembley,if not the best of games unless you were a WARRINGTON fan.

Enjoyed the day , first time Ive been to a final just for the day as its normally a weekend job. Abit Knackering if Im honest but good company on the bus with mine hosts Carl and Ray were spot on. Dragon Fan and young Donny made sure I didnt get lost in the ground but at nearly a Fiver a pint in Wembley also kept you quite sober. Impressed with Wembley itself but what a dog hole when you make your way home. Never seen so many derelict houses for rent and everyone you see seem to look foreign.

The offical attendance at yesterdays cup final was 85,217 the official capicity for a Rugby League game played at the new Wembley stadium is 90,000 if what your saying is fact 4783 ticket holders (5.25% of the total capicity) stayed away which in any ones book is more than a few.
