Question for anyone who may know-

If I bought a ticket directly from Saints for one of the touchline stands can you walk around the concourse to the away end (so I could stand in there) or is it blocked off stand by stand?

The reason I ask is I've not got a season ticket for the first time in years this year and don't fancy my chances on general sale. I thought of have been able to buy an east stand ticket from Saints but there aren't any on their ticket site.

Last resort I'll be sitting with the Saints fans

try asking on the Stains board, I am sure they will make you welcome....lol

That's a last resort before the very last resort! Ha.

I bought mine yesterday. Ticket office said sales were pretty slow !

I went this afternoon and we have sold out of adult tickets.. I paid anyway and the lady said they would post them to me when they get a new batch from Saints.

I don't understand why they have sent such a small initital allocation. Why not just send tickets across for the whole stand and we can send back any we don't sell? I've got mine but know quite a few that want one that can't get one. Due to the small allocation it is only 1 per season ticket holder which is how it should be but if they'd sent them all you could have done 2 per season ticket holder.

It's blocked off with stewards normally so you won't be able to walk round. I think there'll be a few Wigan fans sitting in the South Stand anyway.

Seeing as the stand holds around 5000 and Wigan have more season ticket holders than that, how could Wigan justify selling 2 tickets per season ticket holder?

The same way they justify selling 4 per season ticket holder for Dewsbury with an even smaller allocation. I agree with your point and have argued it myself many times but time has proven that generally speaking everyone who wants a ticket gets one.

Because not all ST holders go to away games and quite a lot will go with non-ST holders such as NK.

And that stand doesn't hold anywhere near 5000

It's the only game I'll probably struggle with all year in terms of a ticket. I was thinking of getting a ST before the start of this year just to be able to get sorted for this game but I can't justify it really as I'm missing about 4 or 5 home games due to holidays, work etc.

I'll get a ticket somewhere in the ground anyway so I'm happy enough.

No but Saints away is unlike most other away games in terms of demand for tickets.



I'm not sure what is so amusing, it was a ballpark figure I estimated. It actually holds around 4000 so I think you could class that as "anywhere near."



The fact it holds less than my guess also adds weight to the argument of only allowing 1 ticket per season ticket holder.

If 2012 is anything to go by then there'll be a decent amount of Wigan fans sat down anyway mate.

Nicky K. you should have got one of these, it saves you money as well https://www.eticketing.co.uk/wiganwarri ... emref=2611

It should be 2 per ST holder and it would have been if Stains hadn't sent such a ridiculously low allocation, 1550? Hopefully they pull their finger out and send the remaining 3450 tickets for the away end

Touch wood I should be ok now. Thanks for the info mate.

Got two adult standing tickets from DW Stadium about 1/2 hour ago so must have had another batch delivered.

1550? Who told you that? Seems silly sending such a low amount if that's true.

I don't get that. You were always going to need/want more.

Reckon I've any chance of getting one on general sale?

Anyone can buy from the Saints site or from the shop. I'm not entirely sure why more were not sent to Wigan.

When you look at the seating plan, the vast majority of allocated are sold out. Last week v Leeds there was nearly 14k on. Wigan are always going to bring more. Personally I'd send the whole east stand to Wigan. With a recall date of a week before the game. Saints fans have had plenty of time to buy for a few weeks.

East stand tickets aren't available on your ticket site though (they weren't yesterday anyway).
Your right that when you look at a lot if the areas they're nearly sold out.

I'd expect this game to sell out well in advance tbh. There's a real feeling that Saints are back in business and we're just cracking on, turning up for the big games when it matters most.

It should be a classic.

Classic???!!!


Even speaking as an outsider I guarantee Saints are going to destroy hapless Wigan. You struggled to get past hopeless Catalan. They beat Leeds with half a side.

That says it all.
