Let's make it a Sea of Cherry and White!
Re: Let's make it a Sea of Cherry and White!
Got tickets yesterday from RFL in North stand close to half way but just in the end which was supposedly allocated to Saints and was told that other than the allocation to the clubs themselves we have been outselling Saints massively and taking over some of their areas. Have incredibly bad memories of my last Grand Final and said I'd never go back to Old Trafford but really looking forward to Saturday, just hope people enjoy the occasion and don't spoil things for everyone else by their inability to handle the beer. COME ON WIGAN.

Wigan had an initial allocation of 10,000. They asked & got another 2000 of which this afternoon at 4.15 135 remained.gpartin wrote:Got tickets yesterday from RFL in North stand close to half way but just in the end which was supposedly allocated to Saints and was told that other than the allocation to the clubs themselves we have been outselling Saints massively and taking over some of their areas.

cp has since posted that all Wigans allocation have been sold & at the RFL too

Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

No point, Canal street partying starts well past my bed time. I used to live with a girl who's uncle was the landlord of Paddy's Goose on the Coach station.
Terrifying for an 18 year old to go in there for the first time :nerv:

Not been on anal treet for years, as a Manchester uni student used to go to the fabulous Mutz Nutz just round the corner where I enjoyed numerous 50p drinks, sticky floors and cheesy music.
