Having been to the last few NRC finals in Blackpool I can assure you there'll be no problem in getting however many tickets you want. It won't matter which two teams get to the final, it won't be anywhere near a sell out.

It wasn't last year when Salford went, and they were getting much bigger home gates anyway

But they were playing Doncaster in the final

I would expect yourselves and Barrow to take a good 6,000 to a final at Bloomfield rd

The RFL will be hoping the clubs competeing in the 9 's to take a few hundred each Barmy

Well we aint shifted our couple of hundred tickets for the 9s yet, Dunno how other clubs are doing but the take up doesnt look to be massive.

Im not sure what the Woodlands Ground capacity is, but the most they've ever had in there in recent years is 5000.

Ant that would leave just short of 4000 spare seats.

Other than the RFL (presumably Big Nige!) Is anyone interested in this?

Ive thought about booking a hotel or B&B and making a weekend of it in Blackpool (whether we're there or not) and thought about going to the 9s, but tbh I'd rater go the pleasure beach, not sure how bothered about the 9s the players will be anyway
