Is the option available to turn up on the day and purchase tickets then (minus the handling fee)? As you know we have this option at Leigh.

Hopefully or there will be plenty of blue seats available. I hope it's not another own goal .

Don't forget here is also a delivery charge on top of that as well. So you'll be looking at over £15 for a friendly!!!!!!

With it being a ramp up event then presumably it's all-ticket and not necessarily any sales on the day? Hope they send an allocation to Leigh anyway as I'd expect 500 or so to travel.

was at the shop this morning, tickets are not for sale at the shop.
online and at the ticket office when it opens

Just called the shop and you can collect from the new stadium already, just go to the main reception with no booking or deliver costs.

Wigan Game also available for sale now
Adults £15 - 10% Booking Fee £16.50 + £ 2.25 Postage = ( £ 18.75 )
Senior / Students £ 10 - £1 fee + £2.25 ( £ 13.25)
Child £ 5 - £0.50p £ 5.50

Stadium Ticket office would be better once up .
collect option I would guess,
ability to choose not just Block seating but Row aswell .
my guess is they will still charge a transaction fee if you book via credit card .

When does the new ticket office open?

The ticket office option isn't much use for us out of towners, though. Especially with work getting in the way and not being able to drive there.

Why on Earth do we need to be charging a booking fee anyway? Why do we need to use ticketline, surely the technology is there for the club to do it themselves?

No true. I'm presuming that the club are expecting to get more out of towners coming to watch the game now that we're in a more publicly seen position and that the majority of them my be more tempted to book online.

It'll be an interesting queue for the ticket office on match days if its decided that you can't pay on the turnstile? Though they would risk doing that would they?

As an out-of-towner who paid the extortionate booking fee and postage in the knowledge that there is a limited capacity for the Leigh game,could you confirm that it will be possible to purchase a ticket for the game against Wigan when I attend the stadium on Saturday 7th January ?
( I would telephone the club but as I have thus far been met and treat by amiable and professional staff who have been a great credit to the club,I don't want to risk that being spoiled.)

If the Wigan game is heading towards a sell-out - please let me know.....in advance.Thanks.

I'm not saying that. I'm saying surely we should be able to do it without outside agencies and booking fees.

I'm not booking the Wigan game online unless it comes close to a sell out (I know, I know...) - I'll run the risk of waiting until the 7th or see if some kind soul will go to the ticket office for me.

You would think that we'd have technology at the new gaff that would enable people to print tickets at home to scan at the gate. Hull KR managed that 2 years ago (kind of).

What ever happened to the mobile phone ticket thing?

The missus went to the Willows to buy some tickets today, she was told they could only be obtained through ticketline or at the stadium ticket office, so off she trundled to the new Manchester stadium only to find they dont have a card machine!

So if your going to the ticket office make sure you take enough cash with you or itll be a trip into Irlam.

FFS! IT GETS BETTER AND BETTER!

Well let's be truthfull.

Car parking charges at the stadium are extortionate and the booking fee for match day tickets are not going down well with us Leythers.


It will cost your club in the long run and obviously I am not just talking about our match on January 7.

You need to let your club know imo.

My apologies. I borrowed it and forgot to hand it back. Here you go:

So if I take cash will I still have to pay the booking fee?

According to the club no, but ar$eholes and elbows if you get my drift.

As I said earlier if I go to the Enormadome to collect and they want you to pay anything more than the £12 for the ticket I won't go to the game, not being bent over for extra charges that aren't appropriate.

No just the face value of the ticket...so I am told

Thanks for that I will try it out tomorrow.

Given the prohibitive cost for postage,as demonstrated by Ticketline,would it not be beneficial to the club to hand over the Premier Membership and the Premier + Membership to the supporters attending the games against Leigh and Wigan,thereby encouraging supporters to attend both games and purchase more merchandise prior to the season start,putting more money into the club coffers?

Nice idea.
I wouldn't get mine though as I'm working the sat as I'd asked for the sunday off!

Just been and collected tickets for the Leigh friendly,still cash only for now but card machines due anytime.

No booking fee when purchasing from the ticket office at the stadium.

Car park ticket has to be booked via ticketmaster.
