Its not "willy measuring" at all. All supporters are struggling with a cost of living crisis and others go through similar patches of away games.

Just off the top off my head we haven't had a home game since Salford. We've had Halifax A then Leeds A then Magic Weekend. That's off the back of taking the most ever fans to Catalans.

We do this (and more) every season due to the pitch relay, we just don't bang on about it.

The 6 of us will try not to obscure your view too much! Maybe we can organise a game of touch rugby in all that space. 4 a side plus 1 to retrieve the ball?

Add another 6 over here, bloody hell we might be able to get a full game going ourselves to distract us from Wigan getting nailed on the pitch by the mighty Saints.

A bit optimistic mate. We'd need 26 for that...and that's not including subs!! No chance there'll be that many there! 7s is a possibility though...

I've noticed a distinct change in the tone of your posts recently, and not for the better. Shame that, but hey ho!

I'm not on here to make friends with people, I enjoy reading different opinions and opinions of non-Saints fans. Naturally there are going to be times when I disagree with people.

Your retorts to posts I make aren't exactly cordial and you are now childishly carrying on joking about an empty away end when I've never said that was the case at all.

All we hear is that Wigan are the biggest club in SL. So its hardly outlandish for me to then wonder why they aren't selling out a 3,000 allocation.

It's only a bit of fun Stu, i wouldn't take it so personally.

But you did come on here, after people on here had already expressed their lack of confidence in the game tonight (me included) and came across as attempting to stick the knife in further with your wordings. Even WW69 didn't attempt that, and we expect it from him!

So the winners of the 2 covid grand finals and the preseason challenge friendly against the panthers reserves have yet to sell out the 15,000 tickets for there home ends on a sunny Friday evening with an fully fit team.

Wigan sold out 20,000 for the Good Friday game.

One hell of a Reserves team they must have. Their side was...

Crichton
May
Tago
Turuva
To'o
Luai
Cleary
Leota
Kenny
Fisher-Harris
Garner
Hosking
Yeo

And as a few of you have reminded me- Good Friday is apparently different. We sold out last Good Friday.

So that's the WCC and the "Most fans to Catalans" cup already in the cupboard for the mighty Saints.

How will we ever compete with that.

Hopefully sky show it too so us TV fans don't have to suffer it.
