I assumed they would be on sale today. Just rang the ticket office and they have no information on this yet. Just advised to keep eyes posted on the Wigan website.

I think they are still waiting for the capacity to be confirmed by Barrow.

Just been on the Barrow site and they have started selling theirs.

Perhaps Wigan are working out the best way to allocate tickets if they have only been given a small amount.

I over heard a conversation at the game on friday that it was free entry if you show your season ticket, don't think this is true, just what i heard.

No, you'll have to get a ticket before hand as it will be all ticket.

It's sort of true. All season ticket holders can get a free ticket for the game but you must pre-book. Just look at the maths, 10,000 season ticket holders and a 7,500 capacity stadium. Only maybe a tenth of those 10,000 are going to be able to go.

Ok then i thought so

I guess maths is not your subject.

Thought they had limited the ground to 6,500 for this game Wigan will be lucky to get 3,500 tickets for this game

I read somewhere that home teams have to give the away team 30% in a cup tie.

From a Barrow-based source I understand the capacity will be set at 7k and Wigan will get 2k (nearly 30%). Presumably no announcements on the official site until Wigan work out how to get the proverbial quart in a pint pot!

if Barrow are selling their tickets, when why not simply contact Barrow for some?

Sounds easy enough to me.

We are meant to be getting a free ticket if you got a season ticket subject to them having enough tickets to go round or else some fans will be standing with barrow fans.

And we can't stand with the horrible Barrovian scumbags, can we





it won't make any difference - you can stand anywhere you like on their ground, so if you want to be segregated, like they have to be at football matches, then that's up to you. The rest of us will just mingle.

Honestly...

There's no segregation anyway, apart from the small seating stand.

Thats good than we can all congregate behind the sticks. I went for my salford ticket today and asked about the barrrow tickets and the woman in the ticket office said its first come first served because like me and about a thousand others hav'nt missed a game all year mite miss out and she agreed with me.

I just hope its better than Whitehaven which was pretty poor when I went couple years back.

If we ever managed to take over the Kells end, it would be boomin'.

Speak for yourself. I enjoyed our 7 million hour journey to watch the reserve side

I had a car like that once.

I know - remember seeing you on Flintstones

I heard you enjoyed it:

even with the free ticket offer, how many does everyone think will actually want to go?

its a long way, a pain to get to, and should be a non event as a match.

i reckon 2,000 tickets will be ample.

im probably going to be wrong though.
