With the weather forecast being so bad on Sunday wouldn't it make sense to move the spectators from the open Western Terrace to the South Stand which I believe is not being used?
Mind you common sense and the RFL often seem milers apart.

Not looking forward to the weather, I’m blaming my mate who bought the tickets, if there’s room under cover then it should be used

They did eventually start selling tickets for the South Stand to HKR IIRC, so not sure what the situation is. It has been a total cock up from start to end. Wigan should’ve had the East and HKR the South from the get go.

That would mean fans of a Lancashire club going to Yorkshire and not being shafted. Will never happen.

Won't the South stand be being used for leeds fans who want to watch their women's team play?

I don't think that there will be around 8,000 Leeds fans there, do you? I'd love that to be true though.

Leeds are advertising tickets for East/North stands for their fans to buy.

No doubt BBC will have their weird shanty gantry studio thing positioned in the south. I believe we had sold circa 2,000 for the South Stand as of last week.

No reason other than the RFL trying to flog the tv illusion of a full stadium, by selling (or forcing) the TV frontage stands upon fans to buy first.

Not at all, but they can't be seen to be offering nothing at all for a version of the sport that is growing i dont think

Think the middle blocks of the North stand are reserved for the women's game

Opening the west stand at all was disgraceful, let alone sticking the majority of one club's fans there. I'd be amazed if the crowd breaks 15k so the three sides with shelter would have been more than enough.

In the old neutral semi final venue. So disrespectful it’s untrue!

I can't see it, but I hope the girls turn up and hammer them

They should have given one team the South Stand from the off, with the Western Terrace on open sale and for any neutrals etc. The other team gets the North & East stands. All tickets priced the same throughout the ground. Heard rumours of very low sales from us.

Yes gone are the days of 15 000 Wigan fans going to semi finals.

Just looked at the BBC2 schedule for tomorrow 12-00 Cleopatra film then Flog it and the RL at 4-30 just shows how the game is valued at the BBC what a joke .I'm going to match tomorrow got seats in stand but feel sorry for all who are the behind the sticks better venue would have been Huddersfield at least nobody gets wet.

A lot of fans put off by the Leeds away section no cover paying top wack to stand up and get wet.

Tickets are reasonably priced though, £20 for a semi final. Price can’t be the issue. They could have played the game at Huddersfield or anywhere covered and added a fiver to the ticket price and Wigan would have probably sold 2-3k more tickets.

Having said that, it’s frustrating that we don’t seem to travel well to SFs played in Yorkshire in general.

1. You going?

2. It's doubtful we've taken 15,000 to a semi in recent history (not sure 1950's-60's).

I was told around 4,500 from us a few days ago.

Hopefully plenty sold in the last couple of days and a few more may be encouraged after watching today’s game with a decent walk up. I know they are selling tickets at the stadium tomorrow. 6,000 wouldn’t be bad at all.

Not toooo bad that, seen Saints on twitter saying they had over 5000. So not too dissimilar.

I know this is bad but personally I’ve decided to watch at home with the climax of the The Open, and hopefully the cricket on today too.

Hull KR bringing a load so should be a fairly full ground.
