With us having 3,500 sold after yesterday we should fill the North then.

Do you think it will be a sellout?

Doubt it will be a sell-out, but I'd imagine over 21,000. Bit disappointed with Wire's following, was expecting them to sell out the North well in advance but I'd be surprised if they managed it now.

Good job there aint free/cheap travel to this one. They'd bring more than hull kr.

hmm can you actually see where i said 2.5k in wigan stand .=#FF4000..cut out the personal insults. Pemps... ,all i said was not all wire fans will be in north stand.READ before comment plz.

Our away game next could have something to do with it.

I think we will shift the 1,000 in the last 3 days 4,500 is still a pretty good following.

we seem to have a decent walk up aswell this season. If we get below 500 tickets left by friday we will sell out in my opinion.

Wire having sold 3500 before the game is also very good. I think they are used to being able to walk up on the day as alot of them usually do. This year, by all accounts Saints also had a good walk up for the North.

We're looking at over 23,000 in my opinion.

Your right 4500 would be decent. I think the reason for the stick and it looking poor is how Wire fans have banged on in the past about how you sell tickets straight away Ie the semi last year and us at home this year! Also these tickets have been on sale a while now considering also 1000 were sold at reduced price you would have thought more would have been sold by now with people clambering to watch the game rather than leaving it to the last min!!

To be fair Warrington have already sold more than Wigan brought to Warrington earlier this year (yes capacity was less but the match only sold out in the few days leading up to the game so plenty of opportunity for Wigan fans to buy more tickets) and 4.5k will still be one of the top 5 away followings to any ground out of all of the regular season I'd imagine with the top following probably likely.

The Warrington following will be fantastic, the Wigan following will be probably the best it's been in living memory - let's just enjoy the game and not worry about it too much.

Agree that our crowds are increasing but that seems to be taking it a bit far (unless your under the age of about 15)

What's total capacity now, then? Has it reduced from the 24,048 previous figure?

Lets get this right you said..............

"not all wire fans will be in north stand,so if north not sold out doesnt mean 6k wont be there"

So if theres only going to be 3.5K in the North were will the other 2.5K be? On the carpark?

Personal insults..Wooooooosshhhhhh missed that one

Looks like we maybe struggling to sell ES1, hows about we just chuck one of those black tarpolene sheets over them like Latics do to make the stand look full? We may aswell rip those ES1 seats out any way as tics havent been selling them for the past 2 seasons.

I thought the capacity was 25,004. Why is it reduced for H + S reasons? I would have thought that there was more potential re H + S problems for a big football match. Or is it the old 'rugby fans are larger than football fans' question? Out of interest re further bragging rights for yourselves over the Latics, what was their biggest crowd last season?

Their biggest crowd was 22,113

Gotta beat that!

The crowd is cut because the stands are unreserved so seats have to be left for h + s. At latics everyone is allocated a seat so its ok (as it is for England/GB games)

The capacity is 25117 I think

The stadium capacity is 24,826 as far as I'm aware, although I imagine that could change regularly depending on health and safety and other factors.

Cheers, thanks for that.

I'll be very surprised if you don't beat that. This is a huge weekend for RL. The Hull, Wigan and Leeds games should draw nigh on 60,000 fans between them and overall the weekend should draw well over 80,000 to all SL matches. What publicity has the RFL given to this? Absolutely nothing.

Yeah I went, it was against Arsenal, they did a £5 a ticket deal like we are doing against Wire.

Why cant the North(Away) stand be allocated seats tickets, there is no need for it to be unreserved like the South
H & S gone stupid IMHO

The tics deal was for the last 3 home games for £12 wereas ours was limited to 1000 seats in each stand for a tenner, tics loyal fans could have as many deals as they wanted.
If theres a £5 a ticket deal, theres a couple of hundred seats left, get 'em bought and sell them for a tenner a piece.

What is going on?

Must be Warrington fans returning their tickets coz they are gonna get their buts kicked on Friday!!!



=#FF0000COME ON WIGAN

Maybe Wire were given an allocation of East Stand tickets but have returned some of them?

Where is LeytherMatt when you need him?

Does LeytherMatt work in the ticket office at Wigan??

I am starting to get nervous now with only two days to go!!!

What am I going to do without your attendance upates EastStandFaithful
