If you're the one with all the proper bikeing gear on then I saw you . Around about half one?
Yes it was a lovely day and I had a nice chat while waiting.

That would be me

Went to darkest Winwick and back afterwards !

they just want to see the giants

Tickets the easy bit . Book online and print at home . The difficult bit is the 410 mile round trip up and down M6 same day before and after the match . Can't get the Friday off work .

Taht's about the same distance as me, and it's too much for one day.

Can't you get the train, EW?

Huddersfield end sold out already ?

The taxi is !

we've had to order an extra taxi!
might be having to get a minibus if it carries on

Shame it's not Friday or you might have had to hire a full coach!





One thing is for sure- If you beat us you'll have plenty of support at OT! We go every year anyway but this would be the first time I'd want another side to win 'almost' as much as Wigan.

Crackpot, but in a good way!

Can get the train down Moto but the last train home is long gone before the final whistle and the first in the morning is too late . I start at 6am .

Are you a milkman ?

I always stop overnight, it's just too much otherwise. If I couldn't get Friday off, I wouldn't have gone. Luckily nowadays I'm self-employed, so they may moan, but they can't make me work.

I remember once yonks going to see a game at Anfield (England v NZ??), and doing it in a day. I was nearly dropping off driving back down the M5, it got pretty scary.

Will there be a cash turnstile in the South stand?

Drove back home from Newquay yesterday , there and back in a day , no chance !

Looks like it, pretty poor sales so far looking at the e-ticket site

It is. However I've just bought two online.

I'd be surprised if it breaks 8,000. One thing this format hasn't done is improve crowds.

Weird that half the crowd that turned up to potentially watch us lift a tea tray won't turn up for a proper game (our biggest of the year).

Yes, weird, and disappointing. This is a much bigger game than Cas, after all. Surely even by the standards of Thursday night, 8k would be a poor crowd?

I would be mortified if the crowd was that low.

we have sold 1000 and are expected to bring 1500, if the self proclaimed greatest club in the world can't muster 7,000 supporters for a semi final then its a very poor do

or are you all saving yourselves for the final

I wouldn't be surprised, disappointed, but not surprised. It's a Thursday and the prospect if having to shell out again on Saturday for OT tickets can't be ignored. Plus, although I don't expect charity, I thought the discount for ST holders was a bit mean.

I think it will be around 7k but probably announced at 8,400ish to save some embarrassment.

It won't be anywhere near what it should be for a game of this importance, but I think it will break 5 figures.

Considering it's the only home game of the season that a ST can't be used for, when in the old system there was usually 2, it is poor that there hasn't been a bigger demand. RL tickets aren't expensive and it completely devalues the product to reduce ticket prices for big games.

Still be double what you men had in the home stands against Leeds last week and that included season ticket holders
