As I'm miles away it's difficult to judge the buzz in the town. Is there any chance of a sell out?

I am hopeful that we will be close to sell out, I am taking my dad and we are both excited and I know lots of people who feel the same.

Good on yer! If everyone takes someone special along we'll get there.

From what we know;

The club said less than 100 S stand tickets were left yesterday, so I assume those will have gone by today.
So the last minute fans will be looking to pick up the remaining W stand tickets, which are only £20.
We know from FB that there were only single seats left in the wings of the E stand when he booked several days ago.
Finally the club said they had sold half the N stand weeks ago, not long after tickets went on sale.

Your guess is as good as mine, but I would imagine we will certainly be north of 12,000.

well all i can say is, if you're not a regular fan that comes along, or a fan of another team thats coming to watch this special event, please, don't stand in my spot...or on the yellow lines.

Me, wife, brother and my Bronco supporting friend is flying over with his wife, going all 3 games.

Don't panic Mr Mainwaring.

Just bin in the shop, loads of tickets left. Only the south stand may well sell out by tomorrow, below 100.

Just seen on Facebook that Troops can get free tickets https://www.ticketsfortroops.org.uk/sports.aspx

I'm always loathe to ask naive questions about ticketing, but can anyone offer any links to confirm/deny whether you'll be able to buy tickets on the night (given that we're not expecting a total sell out).

Every line from the club keeps saying "you can buy tickets from Wolfware until 7.30pm tonight" without expressly confirming whether that's a definitive cut off or just their method of ideally trying to get as many tickets pre-sold as possible.

I'm 90% certain of going but if I could buy on the night it gives me a bit of flexibility in case I ultimately have to work late tomorrow.

Yes you can.
The price of £21 was over the Dallam lane away stand turnstiles, I saw that today.
Only the South stand is likely to sell out.

Cheers, that sounds good to me. Hope I'll get a decent run down the motorway to avoid too many last minute queues.

Anyone know how many (if any) St. George fans are expected?

The South Stand is now sold out.

I just bought a South Stand ticket from the club shop, there are still another five left....

jesus i hope not, its bad enough when its not full

That seems a bit strange as the club website stated they had sold out yesterday. Perhaps they sent an allocation of tickets out and these are the returned unsold ones ?


I have a couple of friends coming over from Chester for their first Wire match so I think they will enjoy the atmosphere. I suggested they watch the game from the South 40m line, preferably near the top. It's never crowded there and its a good view. If there are any other first timers reading this board, I suggest you all pop up there as well, more the merrier.

Yeah I agree, the South West 40 metre line at the back, its a great view and always plenty of space.

Final attendance was 13,080. That is pretty good, a pat on the back to the club for all the work leading up to the game, and hopefully Simon Moran will feel he has had the support of the fans.

I reckon they must have brought in approx. £300k for the gate (13,000 x £23) and after shirt sales and paying the RFL bond, made perhaps £130k. If Daryl Clark cost us £185k, that helps to buy another player at the end of the season ...if we need one.

I reckon if Warrington get the game again next season it will sell out. I must say I was a little disappointed this game didn't sell out.

We had a few tickets at £45, word got round(wrongly) that all the tickets were then over priced, it put peoples noses out and they stayed away.

Whilst I too was a little disappointed that we didn't see a full house, there's no doubt in my mind that the crowd was big enough and passionate enough to put a marker down for this 'competition' to carry on next season. Hopefully it can kick on to a full blown mini series where teams from both hemispheres are fighting to get in it and rewarded as such

I agree. There seemed to be a lot of skepticism about this game but I hope the intensity of last nights game will go some way to convincing fans that this series is worth persevering with. Hopefully Wigan can win tonight's game, although I think their lack of a quality half back combination will be their undoin like it was Warrington's.

Totally agree would be great to see an international mini series started even if it's played in the off season. I'm thinking it would be between both grand finalists and domestic cup winners both sides of the hemisphere. Like a mini champions league.

There is no other cup comp in oz

One thing is essential for mine and that is that there should be no 'misunderstanding' about who qualifies at the outset. It takes away any snipping particularly in our case that we weren't third, Huddersfield were offered it Davy didn't fancy it Moran did blah blah and I understand the logic as highest ranked play off non finalists.

This added to the 'choice' of Australian opposition, such and such didn't fancy it etc needs to be sorted oh and the format, the time frame, the venue and we are on to something surely?

Let's hope the next two games carry on the 'good work' of last night it was a start
