Fri 18 Nov: Wheelchair World Cup Final: France v England KO 7.30pm

[John Drake]

Discuss the Wheelchair World Cup Final: France v England here.

[moorside roughyed]

Come on England. This is going to be a cracking game in my eyes. Two teams on top of their game. I'll be cheering our team on to hopefully world cup victory. 

[gogledd]

I think it will be close with Jack Brown in the England team, without him France would be huge favourites. If they can nullify him they will win - but nobody seems to be able to get anywhere near him! A fabulous player and a terrific sportsman too.

[shrewsbury roughyed]

Wot! No Aussies?

Come on England!

[MatthewWoody]

This is gonna be huge.

Last wheelchair WC final was terrific and it was heartbreak for England (Fra were favourite though). 

Even did a match report in Italian those days: https://www.mondosportivo.it/2017/07/29/wheelchair-rugby-league-world-cup/

It sure is going to be one hell of a game:)

Looking forward to this, it’s been hard to judge how good England are so far because they’ve been so far ahead of their opponents, so it’s going to be good to see them up against similar opposition.

Hoping to convert a few family members to TGG by sticking it on the telly at a family gathering. My 72yo dad is almost converted after trips to a GF and coming to watch Wales v Cook Islands with me.... I just needed to start working on him 20 years ago!

[Human Punk]

This should be great. England to make up for the failure of the mens team in a tight game.

[Chrispmartha]

Looking on Social Media the venue looks amazing for this!

Could be match of the whole tournament this

Gutted I didn’t get by backside in gear and book a ticket for this, atmosphere will be electric 

[MattSantos]

Looking forward to this. Just sat down on the 1st of many trains to get to Manchester.

A real 50/50 clash with a full crowd. How RL should be..

[Tim Streets tache]

Has anyone managed to get tickets for this? Lookin like it's sold out!

[Jughead]

Looking forward to this, this tournament has been a good watch and been really positive on and off the pitch, with good crowds and some real social media traction. 

Would be good to see an England win tonight but I don’t know how likely that is against the holders. 

[Archie Gordon]

In true RLWC 2021 style, was a sell-out; now isn't a sell-out.

Tickets still available!

[UBranger]

Should be a cracker this.

Get in, managed to get one but only Cat A seem to be available so bagged one of those

[Chrispmartha]

Just to add, I don’t think the capacity was fixed so maybe they added in more seats because of demand, although they really should be advertising tickets available on SM

[dkw]

I`ve a felling this will be the best final of the 3 this weekend, its certainly the one I`m most looking forward to.

[Tim Streets tache]

"There are not enough tickets available in the section or category that you have requested. To secure your place, please select the next available section or category."

It’s shocking, but it might be that there’s only single tickets available
