It's supposed to be one of biggest games in the sport. So the fact it hasn't even come close to selling out is a worry from the sports point of view.
From my own point of view it won't stop me myself from enjoying the day but if you think it's a point that should be brushed under the carpet I do worry.
It hasn't been close to selling out since the return to Wembley - yet the powers that be at the RFL do not appear to promote this show piece in an effective way.
Personally I'd like to see the Final venue change. Perhaps have it on a rotation (Wembley / Cardiff / Edinburgh / Old Trafford). Despite being geographically a challenge to get to, Cardiff was pretty much full for its hosting of the final.
Wembley as a venue is poor as its surroundings have little to offer for a large crowd

I live close to Rugby and (along with my daughter and several family members from Hull) got the train to Euston last year. It was amazing to see several FC fans on the train, as we all converged on Wembley from different parts of the country.
This year we're driving down to Stanmore and getting the tube from there.

They haven't coloured it on the map yet, but the extra block they put on sale the other day (537) has sold out and they have opened the block next to it. Brilliant sales, we are pretty much going to fill all 3 tiers behind the posts.

How strange. You would assume that they are sold out because they're not coloured, but on the rfl Ticketmaster site you can still get tickets in block 126.
