i will go if you pay barny if not stop preaching

Me and my pal are going just on the Saturday but are struggling for transport we wanted to get the train but can't find one on return after the game any thoughts

i am not going ....cannot get disabled parking at the ground after leaving it to late

i'm gutted i can't afford it as i refused to go a 'derby' with a round trip of 550 miles and always said stick it on the m62 and i'll go. work dried up and i cant go so i am miffed tbh

Even the weather is looking brilliant for the weekend.Warrington claim to have sold 4,500 and are trying to get an extra 500 from Wakefield. rugbyleaguetickets.co.uk

That's the least I would expect them to sell for a game on their doorstep, they would normally take more than that for a league match to Wigan (for example). Despite claims made by some other clubs (ahem!) I can see Wire & Pies being the 2 best supported teams over the weekend, and part of that is down to locality.

I am a fan of the concept but I have never been able to go to any since it started due to work, & the fixtures need to be out over 12 months before for me to ensure my shifts dont clash or book hollidays. I am not bitter but it is just a fact of the modern way of life. I also miss out out on Internationals for the same reason I just have to hope that they fall on a conveniant day as again I need over 12 months notice to guarantee to be off on the day. I still buy a season ticket for Craven park but it has been a waste of cash this year as I will get to only 6 games. The advance buying of tickets costs the game a lot of revenue as many would pay on the day if they get the chance at the last moment.

In fairness, the "we've sold the most" line was a quote from about a month ago. As you say it would be an embarrassment if Hull outnumbered Wire & Pies. Salford also [iought[/i to have a good turnout.

I can't get it off work myself, so will have my Sky-Go on.

Fair comment. I think Hull's sales shot out in front early on as they had a 28th Feb deadline for ST holders. That deadline subsequently got extended several times I think. I read somewhere that Rovers have sold 3100 and Hull over 4000, so great support and will put many closer clubs to shame.

Twelve months notice to book your holibobs?

Wow, that's rubbish.

Are you a spy?

Maybe he's Santa or the easter bunny

Given the seasonal nature of both roles, he could conceivably be both.

No I fix aircraft all around the world but mainly for offshore oil & gas, that is 24/7 with a small crew so we have to plan a year ahead just one of those things you have to except in the job. I was trying to put accross the point that in the world today there is not realy a normal. When I first started watching all games were played 2pm saturday (with some mid week as well) the crowd at the game would have come straight from work paid on the gate (no tickets to book) then gone home to start the week end off. appart from shop workers & emergency workers there was little if any other work done. Now nearly every company seem to be going around the clock. Not everything is better today.
Anyway it wont be a problem for me as I retire in a couple of years.

I could hear the Hovis music whilst reading your post.

if you look at my avatar you can see i have played that music it happens to us all

Wife and I are not going, reasons being other plans in advance of this. If it had been Sunday, no problem.

I'll be on my holibobs, won't get to watch it until I get home. Might not want to by then.

Rovers sold out of all unreserved tickets so should be a good turnout. I usually go for the full weekend but seeing as you cant go in and out of the ground between games its just our game for me!! On the plus side Ive heard its only 3 quid for a pint of John Smith's in the ground!!!

I'm not going, instead I'll be doing something else.

According to our website this morning we have sold twice as many tickets as Rovers. I don't know where they got that information from

Most people I know that are going bought their tickets from FC but aren't FC fans.

Hey the reason for that is that don't Make sense or is it cos they cheaper there

They made it up?

It's been posted on here in recent days that FC have sold over 4,000, Rovers 3,100. I'd be surprised (and impressed) if you take 6,000+ tomorrow.

They were at a cheaper price for longer.
