They could sell cheap tickets to u16 and use it as a PR exercise, a missed opportunity for me
I think from past seasons, the CC is an RFL event and ticket prices are stipulated by them, with minimum prices also set by them, which rules out any special offers the club can offer ?

They have changed the first team fixture list / ticket link now for the cup tie.

It now reads

Saturday 23 March 2024

K.O. 20:00 GMT

Challenge Cup


WARRIORS V EAGLES

BUY TICKETS

Changed the time but not the date. Doesn't anybody at the club proof read the rubbish they post before pressing the post button . People at the top must realise it's embarrassing the club . Maybe they just don't care.

Tickets still not available to purchase on the website. This is ridiculous with a week to go til the match. Will be played behind closed doors at this rate.

Sarcastic comment. Just getting really annoyed at the ticketing situation at the moment. You would have thought they would be for sale on the site by now
