From Leeds official Twitter page:-

"We have now sold 4264 of our 7000 tickets for semi at close of business on Saturday, back open at 9am Monday"

Is this a sign that people are showing they are fed up with the coaching regime, the Challenge Cup isn't as attractive to supporters as it once was, they are opposed to the venue or just that times are hard and because it's all pay and they prefer to do other things with their hard earned cash?

I'm still, considering the fan base, surprised that Leeds appear to be struggling to sell 7000 tickets. I really did think that Leeds allocation would be virtually sold before they went on general sale. Cas had sold all but 600 by the end of Friday.

Maybe people are predicting a comfortable Leeds win....meaning its not attractive enough for the money.

Not thought of that one

I get the impression that even the club aren't that bothered about this.

Cas have nearly sold their allocation but have been open later at night and were open 9-5 today. We were open 9-12 which seems a very odd decision. Are the online sales still down?

Or is it saving money, not having to pay overtime etc?

Yet more proof it's their cup final.

Quite possibly but then this could be the closest we get to a cup final this year. Castleford are going to put in a very strong performance and I don't think we can be sure of anything.

For me, if the club aren't bothered about this then how can they expect the fans to be?

Re: ticket office : Sat Jul 30, 2011 7:54 pm  

they have sold more than half the allocation in less than half of the time they are available - they might still sell them all
i hope cas get more tickets than us if they want them

Say, for instance, the Cas fans stole them from the club shop. Would it be known as a six-finger discount.
Just a thought.

As you were.
