I checked the e-ticketing site on Thursday evening and it showed 3,370 available for sale through via Wigan (North 1083, South 769, West 393, East 1126).

Tonight shows 2,880 tickets available through the e-ticketing site: (North 1002, South 536, West 374, East 968).

Yes, I know that the site isn't 100% accurate, but it does show movement of 490 tickets over four days - which I'd say is about right around now. I fully expect ticket sales to ramp up after the Cardiff weekend.

Just checked now and it shows 4933 tickets available through the e-ticketing site: (North 2712, South 471, West 365, East 1385).

It looks like the RFL have released tickets for the North and East stands. Does anyone know if the RFL have released all the tickets back to Wigan now?

Hope we start shifting some more for the North Stand. We're sat in there! We wanted 8 tickets for the South Stand but all the central tickets had been sold so we made do with the North.

Don't fancy sitting on my own!

Yes, definitely looks like the RFL have released Two Thousand more tickets to Wigan in the North & East Stands.

If 471 tickets available in the South are all that there is left then I'd expect them to go pretty rapidly this week into next, with the North selling well over the next fortnight.

Have the RFL still got an allocation or is the Wigan ticketmaster reflecting total availability that is left?

I'd say the RFL still have an allocation. The telephone number on the poster is an RFL number so it would be madness to give Wigan ALL remaining tickets for the match.

So we dont really know how many have been sold then as Wigan have 4900 left and RFL have an unknown quantity left.

All we know is that total sales passed 15,000 a couple of weeks ago.

I reckon we will have sold 1,000 to 2,000 since that announcement, and with Wigan having 4,900 left there can only be 3k approx left with the RFL.

[quote="EastStandFaithful"]Just checked now (Tuesday) and it shows 4933 tickets available through the e-ticketing site: (North 2712, South 471, West 365, East 1385).

Count today is North 2682, South 428, West 359, East 1346 left or 4815 left total from our ticket office.

Re: World Club Challenge Thread : Wed Feb 02, 2011 6:48 pm  

RFL must have given loads of tickets back to Wigan. Ticket site showing 2,600 seats left in the North stand and a similar amount over the rest of the ground with the west stand and south stand pretty much sold out and only round the edges left in the east.

So... we are soon going to hit 20k with sales hopefully and if its not a sell-out it will only be the North stand which has a few empty seats.

Re: World Club Challenge Thread : Wed Feb 02, 2011 7:19 pm  

Well over 15,000 tickets had been sold 2 weeks ago and sales will only pick up after the Saints game. I am therefore confident of a sell out.
