Pies are actually 5p cheaper, booze is still the same price though (hope they've ordered more this week as the North Stand was drunk dry on Sunday!)

Don't think I'll be making this trip, got a hard uni exam the next day and it's only an academy friendly from the sound of it. I wish the dates for the friendlies were the other way round though as not many will be able to make it to Warrington on a Wednesday.

The shop was run by the kit manufacturer, Oneills. They decided that it wasn't profitable so pulled out. Matt they maybe 5p cheaper but are no where near the quality of the ones at HP.

Me + at least 1.



Ordered tickets for my daughter and me today - £41 for 2 pre-season "nothing" matches, within 3 days of each other.



It's not going to keep me away, but come on.... It's bl00dy expensive.



Can anyone recall our last "home" friendly at Orrell a couple of years back? Wasn't it about £5 for adults and £2 for kids?



I know we can't fit many in, but surely a packed Orrell would be better than a mostly empty, bigger stadium? (Plus it would give us a "home" match)

Their thinking may well be that demand for friendlies is fairly cost inelastic (i.e the people who bother going to friendlies are die-hards who will go almost regardless of price), and running costs will still be similar to a normal game. However, if they sold tickets to friendlies cheap they may be able to attract new fans, who may prove valuable as some may then like what they see and decide to buy season tickets. It depends whether the increase in market share would be worth the opportunity cost of reducing ticket prices.

fourteen quid for a practice game you must be kidding should be a fiver to cover costs

Have you swallowed an economics text book?

I ran out of cereal

Ticket prices are all about economics, the poster at the top mentions what they 'should' charge as though it's a moral obligation, but at the end of the day the goal of Wigan RL is to make profit for the shareholders, not to get high attendances or win trophies, they are just bi-products.

4 maybe 5 of us coming. Looking forward to a cheap pie and pint in Leigh Easts Clubhouse

Not taking the bloody crusts off again are you?

I always thought the crust was for transportation purposes, didn't know you were supposed to eat them





I'm also sad to report that the chicken balti pies don't appear to be available any more

It wasn't me Matt

I'll be there + at least 2, probably +5 though.

You should enlighten yourselvers and get a free bowl bowl of lobby in thre Centurion near Leigh Bridge.

Nice sense of humour Lobby, but there must be a crust on it to entice me

You'll have to bring your own crust mate. Anyway pastry is fattening. We in Leigh look after our bodies. Or should I say from Leigh.

Me plus two

1st outing for me and Mrs Warrior, working last weekend, hope it's not as cold as last year !

What a lovely invitation, how could anyone possibly refuse -yes will be there.

Il be there with about 14 others

Prices were set well before Maguire decided he was sending the youngsters.

Don't call the prices when it was your club that broke the agreement the two clubs had - that you'd field your strongest side, which now means your fans have to pay £14 to see the reserves.

Glad I held off buying a ticket till the last minute. Guess the club have made that decision a little easier for me.

It's paying £14 to watch Leigh that I object to !!!!

It's another tenner to get out. Just so you know.
