Not sure how many Tickets Leigh have left to sell of their allocation, but there is only a couple hundred left in the 'Shared' South stand at Warrington. It wont be packed with the Red V thats for sure !! Why on earth are they sharing the South Stand? There are two large terraces which should be used separately.

DimmestStar Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 Hull KR 40 + coaches and 3 times as many ticket sales as Wigan. Looking like maybe 7,000 Robins descending on Headingley. Ok Wigan might have the edge on the pitch...might not.. but surely in these days of IMG criteria Rovers should be in the final already? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gubrats was told what I was told in that Leigh sold the initial standing behind the sticks and the 4 blocks of seating in the North - centre block being corporate - then took some, 1200-1500 of the Saints allocation for the South as it was still available then, now sold out. Will be some form of segregation in that stand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fantastic, reminds me of last year when you boasted about taking 6,000 to Elland Road, and subsequently got battered!!. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daz39 Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 I'm beginning to think the semi-final draw was fixed to keep Rervers and the Lopards apart simply because there isn't a ground in this country capable of holding all of their fans in one place at the same time. Great move by the RFL. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbf a cc semi final is routine for a team like Wigan who play in big games regularly and win lots of stuff, this is HKR’s biggest game in ages so they’re going to take more fans. That said if Wigan only take 2,500 that’s poor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great move by the RFL. They couldn’t play the Semi in Hudds. Apparently 3 stands have endangered species living there, so the BBC wanted David Attenborough and Chris Peckham to investigate in a special documentary straight after the second semi final. I hope they have plenty of WD40 to lift them 20000 seats ! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
