The only suitable bigger stadiums are on the other side of the pennines and i really doubt we would take more than 5500 that far for this game, in the playoff in 2006 v bradford which was also on a saturday and was the furthest we have ever been in superleague we took 5000

It's either local fixture and we take 5500 on a short, convenient trip to widnes

Or it's mcalpine/headingley/odsall and we take 5000 on a long, more expensive trip

Unprecedented scenes outside the Halliwell Jones this morning;

Just ordered 2 Tickets for East Stand over the phone....no queue.... soo simple!

Can collect tomorrow if i want.....

I just had a text from Geordie which read:

Remember waiting ages last time from like 9am till 12 or something then my mate went at 4pm no one there

Queues in 2004 were 4 hours plus on the first day. Still no where near a capacity.

The queues in 2004 were caused by the hysteria and panic of the "game-will-sell-out-in-seconds" who are repeating themselves again this year.

How's that possible when they don't go on sale till 10am for season ticket holders?

Long as they save me one for Monday I don't care.

Don't know, thought i'd give it a try.....they took my order no probs. Didnt mention the time. My order number was 3 so obviously 2 before me have done the same.....

I will be going to collect mine when I finish work at 5pm.

Just rang WolfWare to get tickets. They seemed to be unaware that the closing time tonight was 7pm this evening.



Couldn't get through to the reserve line to save my tickets as I can't get there till at least 6.15pm tonight, so they are due to ring me back. I did say that I would pay for them over the phone, but they wouldn't accept it as I needed to speak to the reserve line.

They've took my number and are going to give me a bell back.

I've just got through after 2 attempts and my tickets will be available from main reception tomorrow morning to pick up.

i also rang 01925 248880 rather than the 0871 number. no additional charge for paying by Credit card either i'm impressed.

Don't you just love the organisation skills....



Guardian Website is saying the following.

Opening Times

Wednesday 3rd June – 10am until 7pm

Thursday 4th June – 9am until 5pm

Friday 5th June – 9am until 5pm

Saturday 6th June – 9am until 5pm

Same as posted on the official site, or were they the hours from 2004 still on there!!

That would honestly not surprise me.

just reserved mine over the phone sounded like it was chris bridge taking my order too haha or maybe just his voice-alike

They rang back to say they couldn't get through to the reserved line to reserve tickets. Asked me to ring back in an hour so will do that later on.

Cheers Lee, keep us informed as to whether they are open til 7pm, when you get an answer.

Better than everyone ringing and clogging the telephone lines up further...Cheers...

I wonder what they are doing with the people who phone up to reserve tickets? Are they actually going to allocate tickest as and when we've phoned or will it be allocated seats when we pick up the tickets?

I think they are putting tickets away to one side.

The lady on the phone was very helpful, Donna I think her name was. She kept trying to transfer me through, and also checked about the closing time and she did say that it definately was 7pm.

i wonder if they are selling any tickets at widnes ,i'm sure they did last time, but maybe that was when they realised it wouldn't sell out

Wigan ticket office say they expect to sell out by midday tomorrow according to {Hogan}...

Someone said on your forum that the ticket office expect it to be sold out by midday tomorrow was that a joke?

from what i 've read on the wigan site sales have been slow so i agree
