Frig me. If the game was being played in four days maybe you would have a point.
Wigan are taking nearly two thousand to Catalans this weekend. Supporters budget week by week, tickets will be bought over the next 2-3 weeks. Calm down dear!

If you're looking for glory supporters go and check why the millions of Salford fans have bought tickets to the semi final but yet can't be arsed turning out at home despite having a winning team.

Really......it looks bad when new boys Toronto are attracting double their attendances whilst playing in the third tier.

Well said sir - last thing that needs to be written on this topic.

So reading this thread the reason tickets haven't been selling is because you are on a poor patch of form over the last few weeks.Try being a Salford fan who's club has been on a bad patch of form for the last few decades

I think the general opinion is more because we've had a number of away games on the trot to pay out for and a good number of Wiganers are heading to Catalans at the weekend. In recent weeks I've had to pay out to go to Hull, Huddersfield, Warrington, Leigh and now Catalans. I've not even thought about semi final tickets because I know from experience I'll be able to pay on the door I'd needs be.

Also isn't the reason your sales are going well because if the fact you've been poor for so long? And now you're not.

I can only see positives in this news tbh. If we get beat in that semi I'll be at Wembley in the Salford end cheering you on.

Do you care to check out our increasing attendances during the Millward era as we languished at the foot of the table? Thought not. Don't forget you hi-viz and safety helmet for your future home games.

Quite funny if true. Where did you get those figures from?

Well it's true isn't it

Personally I couldn't give a sh*t if they outsell us I think it's fantastic that they've sold so many already. Hopefully they can shift a few more thousand in the next few week.

I made them up, but it's probably not far from the truth. Saints said the same before the 2011 semi at the HJ and Wigan comfortably outnumbered them on day. Good on Salford though for drumming up a bit of support for their cup final

86% of all statistics are made up...

We've tweeted that we've got less then 200 standing tickets left. That's apparently from an initial allocation with more being available but all sounds positive for the game from both sides.
