Wire have just announced 6000 sold, is this on the low side or what fans expected to sell due to the ground,kick off time plus the opposition no disrespect to hudds.

Huddersfield not selling that well www.examiner.co.uk/huddersfield- ... -31327587/?

I personally think it is on the low side. We have 8k+ ST holders,and 2 years ago we virtually sold out a 13K stadium. Based on that, i reckon its on the low side. It isnt too much further than Widnes, but on the other side of the coin, money is tight for most people, and the K.O time IMO isnt the best either.

imo could possibly put another 1k on top of that with people buying late , one thing for sure is we will have a great atmosphere

Huddersfield have apparently sold only 3000 tickets so far. If we have a convincing win against Cats perhaps we might sell another 1500, but even so this is a pretty poor attendance for a cc semi.

Huddersfield must be wondering what they have to do to get supporters to turn up.

9k already sold not too bad

Low ambition = Low result

Perfect opportunity for Davy to put free coaches on. To ship as many over as possible. Much like Moran did for us

We've sold 3500 i think which is more than 50% of our season tickets, not wanitng to get into a ing comp but if you lot have only sold 6000 thats not that much better than us if you have 8000 ST.

Money is hard for everyone these days and i think the magic of a semi final is not as strong as it was for both teams.....either way i hope its a belting day out !

Your website says 50% of your tickets sold you was only given 4500 and gave some of them back think you are way off the mark with 3500 more like 2000 tops.

But lets hope more fans from both clubs turnout.

Wigan and Leeds have poor ticket sales reported.

Was quite alot of moaning that the stadium wasn't big enough when announced. Should be packed houses for semi finals would have thought we would have taken near 8000 and Huddersfield would have taken atleast 4000. The one per season ticket would not have helped but with 8k season tickets the club had no choice.

Not really important is it though, so they don't have as many as us...pah

I think some people may be reluctant to be in the seated area with the standing selling out so quickly...

I'd rather be in the seated area after standing last week. Going to be like sardines

It's deffo going to be a tight squeeze. But I just can't take to sitting down, just not right IMO

Should be a cracking atmosphere either way really looking forward to it,Hudds fans are always gracious and Friendly win loose or draw..

The kick-off time may lose a few folks. I'm going despite living in Northamptonshire but not many would travel home on a Sunday night when they can watch on TV.

They texted me (a Saints fan) urging me to buy one so they wouldn't be outnumbered...

3/4 full already without the walk up and some Salford fans showing up, not exactly doom and gloom is it

So are tickets still available for the wire end?

You can still buy tickets for the East Stand on the website.

It's pretty poor if we are honest. We allegedly have 30,000 fans at Wembley and 50,000 lining the streets for the trophy parade. Yet only 6000 care enough to get a ticket with just two weeks left to go?

I do think the 1 per season ticket rule enforced by the small stadium has ruled out alot of occasional fans.

Its a game that being shown on TV at a time when people are short on funds. Number will be down. Wigan v Saints last year couldnt even fill the HJ (inspite of the calls for it to be played at the Reebox to house them all, based on their "average" gates) and times are tougher now. 30,000 at Wembley = 6000 tickets aint surprising. I'm at every game but took the wife and 2 kids to make a day of it. Extrapolate this and you get about 8000 people doing the same.

Anyway, at least we've already sold more tickets than turned up for the game against Bradford on our own turf.

Personally I think the kick off time and venue is perfect.

I came into work the day after we beat Catalans and asked for the Sunday off (I'm working 10-4 in Manchester), and was told 'no'.

Knowing full well Wigan V Leeds would be the Saturday game I was resigned (and absolutely gutted) to missing ours then suddenly a 5.30 kick off about £20 in a taxi away from work got announced. Lovely.



As for the casual fans who are missing out because they couldn't get standing tickets when their season ticket holding mates did or seats together with those mates, I really couldn't care less about a single one of them. I got a standing ticket on general sale, and seats are still available now to anyone who doesn't need their season ticket holding mate to hold their hand. If you want to go you can get a ticket, if you can't be bothered then that's your prerogative, but don't expect an ounce of sympathy from someone who wouldn't dream of missing it if they can possible help it.

If the crowd is about 10K all in then it will be a relatively full ground with a big atmosphere and if Wire get to Wembley I couldn't give a flyer who else is there or isn't, I'll be made up.
