670 (was 441) tickets left in the East stand.
1443 (was 1479) tickets left in the North stand.
2679 (was 2083) left in total (on Wigan eticket site).

Bennett on the WCC:
www.illawarramercury.com.au/news ... 80824.aspx
Doesn't know much about us yet. No doubt he'll cram this week:
Question: Have you had much chance to prepare? Do you know much about Wigan?
WB: No, we don't at the moment. We'll have a bit of a look next week when we're over there. At the moment we're focused on getting through here and jumping on a plane on Saturday and we have nine days to sort it out.
Question: You've been over to England a couple of times with the Broncos, what have you found is the key to winning?
WB: Good ball control, just accepting the conditions and respecting the fact that they can play. |

Doesn't look like a sell-out anymore now. RFL have released tickets to Wigan. Prices only needed to be 5-10 quid lower and it was a certain sell-out!
Will look pretty terrible with so many empty seats.

With over 20,000 tickets sold a week before the game you are worried that it will look 'pretty terrible with so many empty seats'.I assume you are trying desperately hard to be negative about the event.Even if not a single extra ticket was sold before sunday,it will still look packed out.

I don't think it'll look too bad. Saints at home last year wasn't a sell out although it looked pretty close to one on the telly. Think there'll be a few more tickets picked up this week anyway. I'll be surprised if there's more than 1000 left on the website by the weekend |

I agree it should definitely have easily sold out, but I dont think it will look too bad because most of the empty seats seem to be at the edges. Still should be a good 20k+ crowd. |

Not at all. The North stand will have around 2000 seats empty and the west stand will have large gaps.
This is the biggest game of the year, I am just disapointed it is so easy to get a ticket. |

Hopefully we'll get a bit of a rush this week to eat in to those North stand gaps.  |

The gaps in the North would be a bit of a bugger, but with the cameras in the West it won't look that bad. |

lets be honest though, who can they sell to, people werent so miffed with leeds as champions and therefore wanted to see them win the WCC, in all honestly, and most of you probably know this!
As champions, your arrogant, cocky, and no-one really likes you, so why would they pay high prices to see you play when its on telly, and when there own teams have a game that weekend??
just saying it how it is, from my viewpoint! |

The RFL should have just taken the whole west stand to sell and we should have taken the rest to market ourselves! |

We really dont care that the opposition dont like us, anyway, selling world club challenge tickets is something you as a club wont need to bother yourself with anytime soon |

Il state again that the majority of Wiganers dont care that the opposition dont like us, and if that means that the game doesnt sell out then so be it |

159 South Stand
369 West Stand
640 East Stand
1397 North Stand
2565 tickets left in total. So around 2,500 tickets left to sell in six days. I think we can at least half that figure by Sunday. With any half decent marketing I think it is still capable of selling out.
At the moment the attendance will be around 21,500. |

you should easily, i agree, but you never do! The attendance from wigan fans at the grand final was great, but why cant you follow that up now, in arguably a bigger game? thats surely a worry isnt it? |
