| London will probably only have 200 at most of they're lucky. I reckon 8-9k with walk ups.

| Quote ="stillinthepast"The headline of this post is Semi tickets sales embarrassing???.
Let me add the following headline Wigan RLFC and the RL embarrassing.
I live in Atherton which is 3 miles from Leigh so I thought why not go down to Leigh instead of going to Wigan for a ticket.
Last Friday morning (26th July) I went down to the Leigh ticket office enquiring about a ticket and was informed that the person who could help me was in a meeting, I was advised to phone Wigan.
On Saturday morning I phoned Leigh and was told that as Leigh was only hosting the match all tickets for the match had to come from either Wigan, London or RL headquarters and that Leigh wasn't on the system to sell tickets.
The same day I sent an email to Wigan and the RL pointing out how stupid it was if supporters local to the stadium either being Wigan supporters, Leigh supporters or neutrals could not get a ticket from the venue.
I put this on the Leigh Forum and I admit a Leigh supporter friend of mine said he could get me a ticket, he even asked me which stand I wanted, I thanked him and declined is offer saying I would see what the outcome of my emails to Wigan and the RL would be.
On Wednesday this week after getting no answer off anyone I phoned Leigh and asked if the ticket problem had been resolved and lo and behold I was told that Leigh had been given a batch of tickets.
I jumped in the car and went down to Leigh and was told that the tickets had arrived out of the blue at 11.00am (Wednesday the 24th July). I was asked did I want behind the sticks or on the side, I said West stand.
I was told the only tickets available in the West stand was block B, so I bought one.
This afternoon I have been on the London board and they have a map of the seating on and guess what Block B according to the London board is part of the London allocation ( not that I am bothered).
And to cap off this tale I have had no reply to my emails to Wigan or the RL, PAR FOR THE COURSE.'"
Weird RFL protocol !!!
I am A Leigh fan, who lives in the town. Last week went to the LSV to buy tickets for the World Cup game at the ground (Tonga v Cook Islands). Only to be told they don't have the actual tickets, and to do it online....eh ???
With a £2.50 postage charge, not much I know, but surely the actual VENUE should have loads of tickets, like for today's game for instance......one 'confused' LOBBY GOBBLER.

there is still a booking/handling charge of £2.50 if you pick the tickets up in person from any box office!! which I find ludicrous, cant understand the RFL's protocols or pricing policy at the moment

| Anyone with half a brain could see this coming. The fans don't give a toss about anything but the final. It should never have been played anywhere near Wigan or the North West for that matter. No wonder the RFL are a laughing stock...

| 6274 for a Semi Final, shocking and had Huddersfield being involved its all they would have been harping on about, seemed to be hushed up a little though and not much mention of it, seems like if its not Huddersfield it's not a problem, however it appears its much more widespread than just the Giants.

| It's now the Carling Cup of Rugby League. Unless there is a 'local derby' in earlier rounds, it's only the final that matters.
About the game today, Sean O'Loughlin was immense for you guys today, I know it was 70-0, but what a player.

Giants v London in a semi would have had nowhere near 6,274 on.
For us it's disappointing. For Huddersfield it's standard.

| Not really surprising, is it? If it had been against a side with any kind of fan base it would have been the obligatory 10k +

| People can call it all they want and yes, it was a game that was close by to our town but that will be the biggest following any team takes to one of this years semi final's and that's shocking.

You need to have a quick look at your signature pal, If Huddersfield had of had that much success in the last few years we would have filled the stadium on our own, don't think we do bad for a team that hasn't won nowt for over 60 years!!!
Like I say crowds only seem to be a problem in RL if Huddersfield are involved.

You want to walk before you can run. How about trying to fill a stand (away from your home town) before you state you will fill a stadium.

| Stop clutching at straws lads. The last comparable semi final (no away fans) of Leeds vs Toulouse pulled in over 10k.
Gotta take this one on the chin.

| Huddersfield fans lol.
Embarrassing from the Wigan fans that didn't turn up today, no doubt they will be in the queue for wembley tickets tomorrow.
To be honest, I went today and I didn't really enjoy it. I thought our fans that turned up were great it's a much better atmosphere with all the die hards than all the glory hunters but the game as a spectacle was embarrassing for rugby league.

That was because those in the East and West Stands did not sing and shout like those in the North Stand.
Great atmosphere there!

| It has to be kept in perspective. 6K for an additional game outside of the season tickets, is still about what Huddersfield pull in for an average league game with all the season tickets.
Glass houses tend to spring to mind.
