Ssshhhh, watching them getting all worked up is fun.

According to the Leeds Utd site there are only eight blocks in the stadium with 'limited' availability, the rest has sold out.

Makes a nice change to be worrying/moaning about there not being enough tickets left for a rugby league event. You could argue the RFL have undersold themselves and could of gone to a bigger ground, but I still think Elland road is about the right size. and had it not been England in the final, it would have been a poor attendance which has to be taken into account.

There now selling tickets in the East Stand upper at www.rugbyleaguetickets.co.uk Got to be a sell out hasn't it.

Quote ="dcc"There now selling tickets in the East Stand upper at www.rugbyleaguetickets.co.uk Got to be a sell out hasn't it.'" Is the whole capacity of the stadium open now then? Would be fantastic to have 38k on! I agree with what other people have said about Eastlands, the final should be held there, we could sell well over 40k for England getting in a final. The atmosphere should be great. Lets hope the team puts in a great performance unlike 2004.

Not sure, I went to the ticketing site and click on a couple of the upper tier blcoks, you could buy a ticket for £25 so must be open. The 'map' image is down at the moment (for me anyway) so could be updating the rest of it.

Just about managed to get two together behind the sticks last night, but only just. Should be a sell out and an awesome atmosphere. Come on England!!

Just ordered a family ticket plus 1 more child for £49.50. Bargain! The bloke on the phone said they are opening the top tier but not fully due to maintenance work. He said it looks like it should easily sell out though.

Down on mine too, but Leeds Utd site isn't selling any in upper tier yet.
Only about 300 seats left by the looks of it and most are £40 band!

Once again for the bloody thick...

Man City (and many other football clubs) say who does and doesn't play on the pitch, they don't want us there, we can't force them to host it. It is played at Elland Road because Leeds Utd don't have any say in it.

That's a superb offer.

By the way, people saying we should play at Eastlands, Man City said they won't have other sporting events there mid season.

The '4N10' promotional code is still active!

Balls

, My sister booked my ticket and assumed the offer ended on the 11th, the date it states on the voucher

In the specific case of Man City, the original planning stipulations limit how many non-football events they can hold in any year. If a pop promoter is prepared to pay more than the RFL, they really have no incentive to let us have the stadium.

Im not doubting that, but I have only every heard that from RL fans. In any case why would their be a limit on non football events stipulated in the planning? Seems abit daft for a stadium that was orginally built to host a multi sports event. Would have been great if they could have held it there.

Because the football games obviously aren't optional and the council had to limit the number of any further (ie effectively 'non football') events to help smooth through the project without too many objections from residents.

Oh right, shame really a game of this standard should be played at qaulity stadiums like Eastlands. Good news that the second tier will be open on Saturday now.

CoMS' pitch has been relaid recently, so they can hold more events on it

Yup, like Coldplay. A choice between a winter event that will earn them a few thousand or a summer event that will earn them a whole lot more, which one do you think they'll choose.

Blame Manchester City council for allowing the stadium to be locked down for soccer use at the expense of almost everything else.

Where is it actually stated that there is a limit? Based on what your saying how the hell do they plan on staging the magic weekend there? What I dont understand is that the Council own the ground and lease it to Man City for a now fixed fee. So who gets to decide other events, and what money they take from there. Are the council taking a fixed fee for other use because if they are it wouldnt matter what event was held there.

Part of the planning consent.



There are only people on an RL website saying it will be there, nothing confirmed yet.



MCFC. Soccer trumps everything else.



MCFC and the concil



If they are then they are stupid, one concert can generate millions.

should sell out. i bought tickets just before NZ scored on Saturday and the website then was very slow presumably from traffic on the site...

Bought my 3 tickets this morning. Come on England!!

We got ours last week. Can't wait for the match now. Big bonus that england have made the final. A sell out will make for a fantastic atmosphere. Hopefully that will have a big influence on the match if we get behind our lads and give some grief to the aussies for the whole 80 minutes. Come on England!

Still baffles me why they persist on holding the final at Elland Road, its not exactly the most modern of stadia is it (has it still got wooden seats in some sections?) Eastlands would of been perfect.
