I think the pricing for this game is a gamble on behalf of the club. I agree that this game is a special game, although not as important as a play off game or challenge cup game and they don't charge that sort of prices for those games. Compared to the prices Saints and Wigan are charging the majority of price are higher for our game. I see Saints are also offering family tickets, I haven't heard the same for Wire. Also I feel the deadline to guarantee our own seats in the East stand these have to be purchased by the tomorrow, could have been longer. So having just forked out for season tickets, a family of 4 in the East will cost another £90, with Christmas coming up and more important outgoings I think the club could have given a longer deadline.
I hope I am wrong but I doubt this game will sell out with the pricing structure, looks like the West stand for me on this occasion.
