Really? Warrington is standing behind posts when I went.
Sts I always sit down at side so can't remember.

Obviously if you sit in the posh seats it's down the side though.

The wire stuck us the the corner when I went for the SL game....

We used to stand on the West Terrace when the North stand was for the away fans but for the pre-season friendlies against Fev, Fax and Hull last year, when they were re-building the North Stand, we stood in our old spot on the West Terrace (just below the tea hut) and were surprised how little you could actually see when play was down in the South-West corner...I'm 6ft 3" and even I struggled, but the wife is only 5ft 1" and said she couldn't see anything once play went into the Southern half of the pitch !!
I get that those in the new East stand will be seated higher up, so this will not be a problem, but we are quite happy with our view from the North stand for the time being

Any half-decent hubby would have took a box for his good lady to stand on for a better view....

She will have had a better season than the rest of us last year.
Not being able to see would have been a bonus !

Hopefully not this coming season though

Unfortunately that was just for the pre-season friendlies...she had to endure the regular season's garbage from the North stand along with the rest of us

Challenge Cup, no, but there was talk of including the 1895, as these are the games used to generate the "extra" games to create a full fixture list.

That's why I'm asking - where has anyone seen anything definitive?

The lady in the shop confirmed this morning that both the 1895 and Challenge Cup games are NOT included in with the season ticket matches

1895 cup may not be an issue, because our league one opponent will be away and its also possible we could be away when we play our champioship opponent.
Challenge cup games have always been pay per game.
However it would be nice if season ticket holders got some sort of benefit when buying their cup game tickets. Nevertheless , i will happily cough up and pay for all cup games to support all the great work done by Matt Ellis

Looking at the available season tickets in the Fox stand it looks like we haven’t even half filled it yet.

I would probably say we are at our limit in terms of current support or close and the challenge is bringing in that new support. It will mostly be done by winning I feel.

I wonder if there’s a plan to fill the other half of the Fox stand. Such a shame if it is half empty most games.

ST don't normally make up even half the crowd. They'll be a lot more people sitting in the Neil Fox Stand on match day.

Don't think this is an accurate observation as section D is reserved for directors and hospitality (which will be mostly full through the season) and section G is reserved for away fans (which will have varied population) I think the rest has more than 50% of the seats reserved (but the map seems to fluctuate daily)

I agree that certain games and events will attract more and some will not... Its up to the club now to create full event days around matches which will attract people .
