went ticket office at 4.40 to get 2 tickets and asked how many had been sold so far...........reply was - us 650....wigan 3500

That is encouraging given it is only Wednesday.



I expect a crowd of 8k plus.

None of our 20 have tickets

Also said that if the crowds 5500 we should make around £40.000...........will make the loss up that we currently have - anything over makes us a profit.

Well I don't think that's correct.



10% in match expenses 20% to the RFL 20 % vat leaving the rest 50/50.



I reckon for every 1000 at the game we will get £3k.

Just saying what the guy said at the ticket office...........said thats roughly what the club had worked out.

I believe that is what you were told but I don't think the person/s who told you took the other costs into account.

got ours today....come on Leigh

I would reckon nearer £4k from an average ticket of about £14

Well you have to take into account the number of season ticket holders at Wigan and the fact that we sell a lot of concession tickets as do they and then of course the number of under 16's and students.



I would prefer you to be right of course but I like to be realistic.

When Blackpool Panthers played at Leeds in the cup they cleared fifteen thousand pounds from the game. I recollect the crowd was officially around 6,500

weve only sold two coaches up to now >
