Indeed. That really doesn't make sense. Saturday 6pm ish would be ideal for us and neutrals. Again though it's probably down to football more than anything, possibly was the same at Elland Road. 7:15pm is a bit of a er.

I'm also hoping that our season beings Magic Weekend, Away Game, then World Club Challenge. I want the Challenge to be our first home match.

I dont agree Bilko i would sooner the new players experiance a home game 1st before the wcc so they can get used to the home crowd and more importantly the pitch.

You know, I was just thinking the VERY same thing.

We are going to have a very good few years at this club, certainly better than the last ten (not including this year), that's all I ever wanted.

The successes we WILL achieve over these next few seasons will be memories for the younger Wigan supporters that money can't buy.

Well I see your point but I'm sure they could cope. I don't want to start with a damp squib of a game against a Crusaders or a Wakefield or a Catalan type.

And this is a problem because ?

Better be careful, he's got 5 kids already!

Cant believe people are moaning about price, typical Wiganers! Its the 2 best teams in world rugby playing at OUR ground, id pay over the odds any day.

The ironic thing is the people who moan about the price are usually the first to criticise Latics' support who have to pay these prices every other week to attend an away game.

When you think about it, it's going to be a couple of quid cheaper to sit in the North & South Stands as an adult for the World Club Challenge Final than it it is to stand, uncovered, in the rain at Hull KR, Wakefield and Leeds next season.

That's how ridiculous this is!

Lets hope WIGAN/RFL get a sponser for the game that it deserves and no stupid leeds met in sight

Surely the best sponsor is the one that pays the most money? Not a massive issue for me I must admit.

How many tickets can season ticket holders get on Monday. I have 2 season tickets but need 5 or six tickets.

My thoughts exactly, we have the choice of getting your season ticket seat for the World Club Challenge, what more could you want.

You have 2 season tickets so you need 2 tickets

is it not still officially the gillette world club challenge? lol! why would leeds met be a problem anyway?

Correction on what I wrote before. I'm advised ST Holders can only buy their own seat at present. They might allow 1 or 2 extra but you'll have to wait till 29th November for that many.

Thanks Bilko.
One per ticket is rubbish.
My sons used to be season ticket holders but now live in London so come up for big matches such as the Grand Final. With a capacity of 25,000 you'd think they would want to sell as many tickets as they can as fast as they can.
However, this is the rugby league we are talking about.

Yeh I just phoned up and it is definitely only 1 ticket per season ticket

Well, I won't be going down for mine so somebody will be getting a good seat.

Originally the RFL wanted full control and didn't want to give Season Ticket Holders priority over their seats. So this is a bit of a compromise period for Season Ticket Holders to claim their seats rather than a full release onto sale, if that makes sense.

Well, what you've written makes sense but the rugby league don't make sense.

The only problem is if you want to sit with your sons and the seats next to you are already held by season ticket holders.
If you wait until after the deadline you may be lucky.

I would think that they will still let season ticket holders have extra seats now but not the ones that are already held by existing season ticket holders.
Send Leyther_Matt a pm, I'm sure he will help.

Afraid not, see Bilko's post - the RFL didn't want people to have priority on their seats so as a compromise the DW are selling them two weeks prior to the RFL to give priority, but as such it's season ticket holders only at the RFL's request.

That's just daft. Doing something like that would have seriously annoyed a lot of people. I'm prepared to pay £40 for my seat for the game, but if I wasn't guaranteed it then I'd have been opting for the cheaper ones.
