although unlikely, the Club will request additional tickets from the RFL.

Yes crazy, why oh why would they send us more tickets that we can SELL! We had more than 4,000 there against Haven? Surely?

I cannot, for the life of me, understand wtf the RFL are doing!!!!!

Do the actually think they'll get 2,000/2,500 neutrals at the game because of the 9's Tournament that no one gives a sh*te about?

Would it not make sense for a couple of people at the RFL to email/Phone around the people who have purchased nines tickets (not a lot) and asked them if they were going to upgrade or not. They can then hand out the rest of the tickets to us and Barrow.

Either way it looks like being around the 8,000 mark which is a decent crowd.

We have sold 3,700 and if Barrow do sell out to 3,500 that'll make only 7,200 + a few hundred neutals, say 300. 7,500 at the most and about 2,000 empty seats.

A few have purchased direct from the RFL before they blocked them and told them to call the club, our current total is around 3,900

**Sorry, I had to go to Wade Deacon for an hour or so**

Anyway, I thought you could only buy from the RFL buy upgrading a 9's ticket? I can't see to many of those being sold to be honest.



It's just another RFL complete f*ck up as far as I can tell.

I think a few additional 300 or so tickets will be on the way.

They should be able to give us another 1,000, or allow fans to buy direct from the RFL themselves. There's no way they've sold more than a few hundred tickets for the 9's, so I can't understand what they're playing at.
