They haven't sold 25,133
That's the stadium capacity with all seats available

It's around 24k currently

Some Salford fan said to me and I quote "You are by far and away the most Handsome & Knowledgeable Rugby League Fan in England!"

I thanked him and went on my Merry way!

On the rare occasions the stadium is filled, I always think the club needs to find ways of trying to capitalise and attract some of the casual fans back. Maybe hand out some flyers for a ticket deal for the next home game around the stadium or some season ticket info etc.

We play Huddersfield the week after, so that would be ideal because we’re likely to go from 24,000 to around half that without a fair push.

It would be very interesting to know how many neutrals are attending (or non Wigan fans I should say)

To see a side like Penrith live and in the flesh is a big draw for a lot of RL fans so I would imagine there’s a decent amount.

I saw a Saints fan on Twitter that said he personally knew 21 other people going to the game who aren’t Wigan fans. FTV is another example bringing 5 mates with him.

A fair chunk would be neutrals I'd imagine. The demand for tickets has been unprecedented in the history of the fixture (for games not involving the larger city of Leeds).

Really tough to put a number on it but when we play Saints on a Good Friday, that brings out lots of casual fans but even then, it’ll only sell out in the week of the game and with 5,000-6,000 Saints fans helping. I do know a few casual Wigan fans who are going who don’t even bother with Good Friday/Grand Finals, so there’s clearly a big appetite for it in the town. I’d imagine there will be a couple of thousand neutrals in the ground on the night.

About 3/4 of N2 disappeared in one go, be great if Penrith have organised a fans trip and they're all together in that block

A few of my friends from Rochdale are going to the game. If anything, a couple are Hornets fans. They just like RL in general.

The end blocks of E/W never went on sale, can't see they'd be where they put corporate guests and likewise with the bottom 1/3rd of N1/S1. taking a guess I reckon 23.7k
