Good stuff that newbies will be introduced to RL, will be a great advert for our game.

Will be good for the RFL to release more updates on ticket sales

15000 is an excellent start considering the tickets have only been on sale 3 weeks. Some pople won't have ordered theirs yet due not been paid their wage. Think the RFL are missing a real trick in no making it a permanent offer at £10.

Thats a good point Bull!
I think I may email the RFL about that very point!

We need this offer to work, if people dont go this time, and the international game carries on its decline we might never see england play at wembley again, £10 you cant go wrong, make a weekend of it down in London and with a 50000+ backing we could all witness some history in London. People make the trip for the CC final when its not even their team i really hope this works!!

i think that may be part of the problem though. many people always go to the CC final, so either people will have to choose one or the other or stump up the cash for yet more petrol/train tickets/hotels/a day or two of food and booze at london prices etc all within a few months of shelling it all out for the cup final. its a tall ask for many, especially in the current climate. £10 tickets are great, but really makes very little difference when you factor in the total expense of the day or weekend.
thats not to say i dont want it to work, just that its less than ideal for many people, financially speaking.

Beers not THAT dear in london and if four of you bunk in a car its about 15 quid each.

You're taking the , surely?

Nope. Maybe im just used to paying nightclub prices I dont know. Add 30p to your pint, big deal

I used to go on the pop quite often in Stockholm - London prices seem cute by comparison!

If I went to Stockholm... I just wouldnt drink! And I polish off 3-4 litres of vodka a week

I agree. Used to pop over quite often with work, wonderful place. Horrendously expensive for beer, and unfortunately alcohol can't be expensed unless you persuade the place to fiddle your receipts.

Walk into any half decent bar in Stockholm and the girls will blow your mind.

Next stop Sweden

I think he must live in some remote Russian town.

Ive never been to Stockholm but ive heard its dear.
I was in Australia over the winter and that was dearer than I liked, I was on litres bought from dubai and shipped in. 5 or 6 quid a pint it was

Explains a lot

!!



You're not far out

.

Would like the offer to be extended but only purely because I've yet to get my backside in to gear and find out how many tickets I need.

If this doesn't work, RL fans will only have themselves to blame

In reality it is cheaper for beer than the UK capital and many cities in the UK.

I look forward to the obligatory England "fans" complaining that it didn't look full enough when they watched it on TV sat on their a*se at home.

£10 to watch NZ AND Australia AND England in one of the best stadiums on earth.

Exactly. I took on the bulls fan idea before and emailed it to the RFL, I think it definately should be extended to the first week in august and if they sell enough open up the top side facing the camera with discounts too!

This is brilliant, 1/6 full already!!! I am confident of over 50,000...



I suspect they will just about. They'll keep extending it and make us all think it will soon end, just to give us the sense of urgency...

Think for once the RFL have got this spot on. Get the traditional RL fanbase on board early on with discounted tickets, leaving plenty of time to try plug the game to the southern market, who when used to paying top whack for football/RU events, will see £25 - £60 for a double header as pretty cheap anyway. Hoping for 50000+ for this.

44,358 is the tri/4nations attendance record.....that should be our target
