What is this obsession from Wire fans regarding selling tickets? I suspect Warrington have sold more than us so far as they have opened the ticket office as a free for all whereas Leeds have only opened their tickets to members so far and havent placed them on general sale just yet

And the really funny thing is that on the day it will be impossible for the TV viewer to differentiate between one set of supporters or the other

I'm sure a lot of people will have done what I did today. Instead of getting up early yesterday after a heavy session on the beer after our victory on Saturday or driving all the way up to Headingley to waste time in a queue I simply clicked on the RFL website and the tickets were sorted after 2 minutes and a £2 booking fee. It would have cost me that much in petrol to get up to Headingley. Ticket sale numbers quoted from the club could be misleading and not reflect the actual numbers attending the game.

most people i know have also used the rfl site as its easier

maybe warrington are selling more as they only have 1 final a decade to save up for

All tickets purchased before the week of the event will be posted to you to arrive no later than 5 days before event.

This was taken from my confirmation e-mail sent by the RFL.

thank you just read my confirmation email and it says the same.

Both clubs will sell out the 17,000 tickets each easy we have shifted half and general sale doesn't start until Weds, thought we would both get more to be honest as we took 30,000 last year and Leeds would do the same, but RFL have had them onsale for months and there is also the club Wembley seats which is just up to them if they use them or not.

And what about those fans, who were going anyway and already had their tickets booked months ago.

Full credit to Lord Percy's foresight and landing us in the Leeds end ....

As we have had a significant number of people submit advance purchase forms (the IF form),its not in my opinion possible to judge our actual sales as yet.there is a quote of 4K plus for Sunday sales.
But heyho i shannt worry about it as 1/we know we will have a good turn out and 2/the PHALLIC SYMBOLISM/sales comp isnt relevant yet.

I will do a head count on the day of everyone wearing Blue and Yellow and these will be credited as Leeds fans. Thereofre, I suspect we will be taken 60k+

A mate of mine has just rang the tickets office and ordered his, they told him that Leeds have just about sold all their allocation.
