5,500 tickets for each club is enough to cover the amount of regular match attendees, by this i mean Season Tickets holders and those who pay on the door every week.
Not every Season ticket holder will attend the Semi-Final, let's say we have 6,000 Season Tickets i can bet 2,500 of those wont show up maybe due to holidays, financial climate etc etc plus people don't go to away games full stop unless it's a final (i know plenty) so the other 2,000 tickets will cover those people who pay on the door.
The game may not be a sell out but it could get close but at least the people who deserve tickets have got them, the only negative point to playing at Widnes is that people can't sit together due to it being reserved and due to the Warrington club new ticket scheme people cant take friends who also have auntie's and uncle's who don't know the shape of the ball. I have no problem in borrowing out season tickets if there not being used but why should these people who probably haven't been to a game this year have a god given right to get a ticket.
If we were to go to Huddersfield i believe more people would fall by the wayside because of the further travel distance, petrol cost etc etc plus the stadium would look half empty on television.
Wigan have been allocated 6500 tickets, also the stand behind the sticks (west) is bigger than the east stand.
