Well that is bloody stupid. Say that we take 8k and so do Warrington, they might be thinking that with us being earlier, the winning sides fans will stay on and watch the 2nd game, so only 8k fans will go home early, rather than 16k arrive toward the end of the Saints game

They pulled the numbers out the bag and then told us what team it was, why weren’t the team ball numbers given out to verify the teams...call me cynical but they could have read out whatever they wanted
They should really have showed the team numbers beforehand, I guess it was an oversight. But it was just done the same way it has been done all through the tournament, the numbers correspond to the order that the teams qualified. We were first to qualify, Warrington were 2nd etc. We were 1 in the last round aswell because we again played on the Thursday night against Cas.

Yes I don't understand it tbh. Regardless of how many fans are the ground, surely you want the "showpiece" on last. Saints v Fax is a foregone conclusion.

Maybe to do with tv scheduling. Ours is on BBC1 the other ones on BBC2. Bummer anyway. 8-40am train booked but that's curtailed our sesh time by a couple of hours. Dont they know who we are?

Yes that's a good point. Maybe wanted our game on BBC1 but there wasn't a slot for it later in the afternoon.

Does anyone know what the pricing structure is? Is it an inflated price because there's 3 games or is it just priced as if it was one match and the extra games are a bonus if you want to hang around for them?

Can be either or both of those Gravy, so whatever you want it to be I suppose pal.
