had some friends get mine, but you should be able to do it online on Wigan website not queue for 24hrs. Its run by ticket master anyway so there should not be any problems

Thanks for that KW, thats a beltin' service they do, just hope the tickets don't get lost in the post. I asked if I could have an aisle seat so I can stretch me back legs out, no problem,......Bill.

For me, they should be held until today, no sales, and then released to the 2 qualifying clubs. Then the clubs can choose to allow Season Ticket Holders first, then go on general sale.

Instead, you end up finding your team has qualified and really wanting to go and perhaps ending up with the scrag ends of the ticket pool.

but, The RFL are more interested in lining their pockets rather than having the best interests of the clubs and fans in mind.
What a crap idea. If they did this the stadium would be half full at best with two well supported teams and almost empty if any not well supported teams got there. People plan weekends away long in advance so its marketed all year long. I didn't use my season ticket to get a ticket from Wigan and used the RFL website instead and didn't get scrag ends of the ticket pool
I agree to a point with onedego on this. Whilst I agree that tickets should be available all year round, there should be a greater allocation to the clubs involved. I have read (via newsnow so can't rmember which web sites) that demand has been greater since the semi finals were played. Would be interesting to know what the sales figures are for before and after the semis.
