None.
Looking at the Hull game against New Zealand today and you can buy pretty much any number of tickets in any area of the ground. Doesn't seem like it's the hottest event in town.
Wembley will be circa 30k ish I would think. The lack of realism in an England series win just puts the majority off. If we had a great side with a chance of winning, it would be full.

look harder........we sold over 15k in the first couple of weeks and that was over a month ago

Quote Due to unprecedented demand, the RFL have opted to extend the ticket deadline for the Gillette Four Nations double-header, allowing fans to purchase tickets for only £10 until Monday, July 25.
Over 15,000 tickets have already been purchased since the offer was initially unveiled a fortnight ago allowing fans to watch some of the best players in the world clash at Wembley stadium for only £10 on Saturday, November 5. The Wembley double-header will see Wales take on New Zealand at 1pm before England face up to fierce rivals Australia at 3.30pm in the national stadium.
“We’re delighted with the uptake we’ve witnessed on tickets since we announced the offer,” said RFL Director of Marketing and Communications, Andy Hewitt. “The Wembley Double Header promises to be one of the most exciting and highly anticipated days of Rugby League in recent years and we’ve decided to extend our offer for three more days to allow fans to take full advantage of the offer.
“Wembley Stadium is one of the greatest stadium’s in world sport and we’re delighted to be taking International Rugby League back to the national stadium for what promises to be a fantastic day of Rugby League.”

It looks like only the lower tier is open for general sale at the moment and the diagram on the ticket purchasing page says the tier above is Club Wembley. There are also hospitality places available, but I can't see where these are in the stadium. If the lower tier is about 36k, then I think we're looking at a 40k gate at least.
Hopefully there will soon be a press release saying that the allocation is nearly sold out and that allocations for the top tier will be open for purchase at a bargain price. |

sell out the lower tier...then we can start selling the club wembley tier,as its not included in the 'club wembley package' but i think they get first option?..so thats another 18,000 seats available to us potentially..
selling the tiers as we need them is a very sensible thing to do

If there was a lack of realism then Wembley would be packed full fans expecting us to put 60 on the Aussies
God forbid that in your fervour to type something negative you would actually stop and think about whether what you are saying actually makes sense |

Policing the internet for the calibre of written English is one of the least impressive personal traits you can have.
And on the subject in hand, am I not right? Are you wildly optimistic of a 50,000 crowd? The RFL only put the lower tier up for sale because it will make it cheaper. Even they aren't expecting a big crowd for this. |

I am not criticising the quality of your grammar or spelling - I am simply pointing out that what you said didn’t actually make sense, it is not the calibre of your English in question, it is your ability to construct a logical argument – a very different thing
And on the subject in question – I expect 50,000 to 60,000 which will be a success and create a great atmosphere and be a real showcase for International Rugby League |

I have bought tickets to the Wembley double header, having not been to London in a while, we are arriving at London Kings Cross, is it best to book tickets in advance to get to Wembley via Kings Cross or is the Oyster Card the best option?
Cheers

oyster card...best thing since sliced bread lol
and we only have to get near 44k for it to be considered a success.....as 44k is the 4nations attendance record...so if the aussies can only manage 44k why should expectations be any greater up here??.....the aussies would'nt dream of taking a game to the aussie olympic stadium so instead of bitching about it get behind it and support the idea

Depends how long you are staying. Just get a day travelcard if thats all you need.
Btw, how much was your train tickets. I picked some up for £22 return. Add on £10 for admission to the national stadium for two matches featuring the best players in the world. Bargain! Can't understand why people are not interested. No doubt they'll watch it on TV though... |

go to a magic shop, buy a magicians wand, take the little chip out of the oyster card, stick it onto the end of the wand. then you can use magic to gain access to tube stations  its one way to make the hellish journey across london enjoyable. |

If you are just travelling to Wembley and then back to KX, then probably not worth an Oyster card.
Otherwise, definetly. I think you can still get them online. When I got one it was a case of £5 deposit, which could be refunded if the card was returned. Not sure if that is still the case. |

yeah just go to the transport for london website
www.tfl.gov.uk/
and order a oyster card and you can decide who much you want pre loading onto it, then it'll arrive in the post ready to use when you get to london,defo worth having,even if you only use it for a once a year trip like i do...paying for a trip via a oyster card works out about 50% less than if you paid for a ticket at a machine...so worth having |

Be careful if you do not swipe your card at either station (as on Saturday when we were directed into the station by a back entrance) they charge you £4.40 which negates any value you get by buying an Oyster card. |
