Just means that you can buy that seat, but it doesn't match your selected Category.

For anyone waiting for the new allocation, they ONLY have Cat-5 in the West Stand (so as far back/high up as you can get, behind the sticks).

I waited almost 2hrs on the phone to find that out, on top of the 4hrs wasted yesterday at the ticket office.
And I've ended up buying seats behind the sticks in the away end from the RFL site, after all that.

Wigan/RFL have managed to suck EVERY bit of enjoyment out of this game, and we don't even play for another 5 days.

Have you searched for two or more tickets? I think it means there are tickets available but not as many as you've requested that are next to each other.

As for seats on the side there does seem to be a shortage of available tickets down the sides - I bought two of the few remaining £65 tickets in the North side yesterday (more than I wanted to spend). I guess its possible the RFL have done a much better job of selling the 'neutral seats in advance of the final but history doesn't inspire confidence.

The new batch that Wigan have received are in the higher blocks of the West stand - why weren't they given them in the initial batch?

I may well not go at all now, I'm so fed up with it.

I only searched for a single ticket. I can't see that that that 'not matching filters' means it's not in your selected area, cos I'm seeing light blue and dark blues dots in adjacent seats!

There will be loads more later in the week. Doesn't help that both our & the Super League ticket sites are w@^k. I got mine earlier in N2408 from the Super League website and it took 3 attempts...not the most confidence-inspiring situation when spending nearly £500 on tickets. I'm hoping we have good numbers from half way in the North stand around to the South West corner.

Light blue seats mean someone is in the process of buying them. Are you selecting 'choose from map' instead of the categories?

Yes I think so, and that makes sense, ta. Given up now, anyway.

Managed to pick up my tickets when I noticed the second allocation had been released to the club this afternoon.

Tried since Saturday afternoon to get sorted and had nothing but bother on both the generic RFL site.

To say it’s not fit for purpose is an understatement.

Re: GF WIgan given West stand : Mon Oct 09, 2023 5:58 pm  

I sat in the Upper West tier for the WC Final last year and it wasn’t bad at all. High enough to give you a view of the whole pitch, if that’s your thing…

Good luck to anyone still trying, persevere
