Cup final : Tue Aug 23, 2016 10:20 am  

Anyone going to Wembley? I see the club are still selling tickets, perhaps they should have made a bit more effort earlier to sell their allocation.
Have seen that all the clubs are being represented in The Songs of Praise Choir, I assume we have a someone in for us. You would have thought the club would have made something of it, or at least put something on their website.

I'm going with a few others.

Meeting at the Hole in the Wall pub at Waterloo!!

I'm not in the choir so you can rule me out. I got my tickets from Skolars as I did my Eng v Aus tickets

Not the best of pubs but offers a few real ales and is close to the tube

Need to do something to increase the attendance. all the empty seats looked poor on TV, but still a great game and fantastic atmosphere.
Nice to see so many of our players at the match.

It's a problem with wembley though isn't it? The debenture seats remain empty

Re: Cup final : Tue Aug 30, 2016 1:01 pm  

The seats are up for renewal soon so it may change.

The thing is the rest of the grounds wasn't full either. The days of the neutral northern pilgrimage to London are long gone. Catalans, Magic weekend, Grand final are all options these days

The date of the final for the neutral supporter is not ideal it being the last long weekend of the year, bang in the middle of the 8s not helped.
Grand Final as an event is much more appealing to a lot and less costly

Re: Cup final : Thu Sep 01, 2016 8:01 am  

76,235 attendance really disappointing and a disgrace to the RFL when you knock off the 15,000 Club Wembley seat holders that figure, the whole day felt flat.

We had a good time and it was a great game.
