Wrong again the capacity of the DW stadium is 25,138 and now your making me include facts about the blue sh*te that reside in the stadium, they hold the record attendance or rather Man Utd do when they lifted the cup at the DW the attendance was 25,133 so what was it you was saying about health and safety is this a new piece of legislation???

I think you will find the key word is "Allocated". Seats for rugby are not all allocated, i would imagine the wendyball ones are.

I give up, might as well try to explain algebra to my dog. You can't educate pork

Are we perhaps getting a bit off topic here?

For certain matches they would be. World Club Challenge Final for instance (as was the case against St George).

Therefore it is theoretically possible to achieve a crowd of over 25k at the DW.

Aye but we've had very few fully allocated Wigan games at the DW (Is that the only one, come to think of it?) point is we've had quite a few games that have sold out.

Apologies, i was meaning matches in the regular season.

Correct, and it's a sensible rule really - imagine being the last person to arrive in, say, a sold out South Stand, and trying to find the only (unallocated) empty seat!

What a typical Rugby League forum. Someone addresses some issues about the future of RL as a whole, and within a few pages people's heads are going up their own backsides about seating capacity at one particular ground. Says it all.

It's the nature of the beast.

There are far to many nitpickers on here thats the problem theyd rather argue with people for the sake of it than discuss pressing maters.

Well at least some people have a head and not two backsides. I’m sorry to insult your self perceived giant logical intellect, but that’s what these boards are all about, discussion, and sometimes people talk about the less obvious parts of a topic. IT’S WHAT IT’S ALL ABOUT! So if it’s not up to your standard tough, don’t play, but if you voice an opinion, which everyone is entitled to, don’t expect us all to agree with you.
