I'm not going because the away end isn't open as a wedding gets priority as Wigan are minor tennants.

And also because there are 712 derby games every year they mean absolutely nothing at all to me now. I am debating whether to even bother watching the game on TV I'm that apathetic to it.

Don't be daft.

You'll be watching it like the rest of us.

If you go on the Wigan website and look to order tickets for this game it will tell you how many are still available. Earlier today there had been 14277 sold (assuming all of the Saints allocation had sold) the big area that remains unsold is the south stand where there were still 30% tickets still to sell (about 1500).

So I am assuming that there will be tickets for sale on the day - and if you want to go on to the site there are plenty of tickets available adjacent to the Saints allocated sections.

We haven't sold our allocation although I would imagine by now what remains has been returned to Wigan.

Saints have confirmed that there will be tickets available tomorrow with a cash turnstile open in the East Stand and ticket office open in the West.

As of 5:45 p.m tonight
12,248 or 12,428 tickets sold for the game, I can't remember exactly.
Saints have sold just under 2,000

Source, extremely reliable.

I believe that, I've not seen such lack of interest in a derby for a long time in St.Helens. I dont know if its our poor form so far this year, a lack of cash, or that there was one only a few weeks ago and another in 2 more weeks or a combination of all.
