Cheers - just emailed them now, using the link.

I'm in the same boat as you two, no email as yet either, the original rollover email said: Whilst every effort will be made to locate your seats in the same area for the 2021 Cup Final, we cannot guarantee that this will be possible in all cases. Should your seats need to be relocated, they will be transferred to a location that matches the price band that you paid for the 2020 Cup Final When I booked them there were only an handful of seats sold in that block, so I'd hope we would get seats there. I wouldn't mind the seats moving a block or so, but given they were selling Club Wembley seats I'd expect them to still be in there 100% League 0% Union Just because I don't know doesn't mean I don't understand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaun mc Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 I've now had a reply from the email I sent last night. Because of rhe volume of emails they have to send out regarding ticketing, not all will have been sent yesterday. In addition, it seems those who opt out of RFL marketing emails could be at the back of the queue for yesterday's info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bedfordshire Bronco Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 My prediction... they are not going to sell all the allocation and there will be about 35,000 Only ticket option is £54 That is too much when normaly there would be one for around £20 I was supposed to buying for a party of 6 of us this week on the assumption there would be a normal £20 or do option left Plenty more people will do the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could have sold 9.5K each and there only be 500 left or they could have only sold 2K each ? I predict 35,000 will be there, we'll short of allocation. Price is too high Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Price is too high If it is 35,000 then its still a good turnout with what's going on with covid, by the way if you wanted £20 tickets should of booked early when they offered them the other week. I understand from somebody who was at Wembley the other night it wasn't a sell out!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave T Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 I noticed that the cup final tickets are still being advertised on the radio. We shouldn't forget how the pandemic will still be impacting things like this. A trip down to London on public transport, visiting pubs, using the tube, staying Hotels, being in a bustling stadium etc. Will not be appealing to an awful lot of people at the moment.

This is true I'm sure for many. Four of us have attended every Challenge Cup Final for many many years but didn't ever consider going this year. This was even before the finalist put the final nail in the coffin. This world was never meant for one as beautiful as me.

You seem to be moaning because you cant get cheap tickets, which you'd have got if you'd bought earlier. This is about maximising revenue and I'm quite happy that the RFL do that. You are moaning about £54 tickets but they only have to sell near 1 in 3 of them to get the same revenue as they would by selling every one of them at £20. I'm quite happy with the concept of those buying early getting the best deals and the most choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One legacy of some of the last minute cheap deals of recent years is people somehow expecting to pay £20 for a cup final and not buying when they're not available. Frankly £54 is a reasonable price for such a big event after early deal offers have passed by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
