Each club allocation is circa 10,000 although this can be increased or decreased as required.
These areas are then marked as sold, so are greyed out or marked in red. If tickets are returned those areas are again open for sale. Hence why the Cas end which once was marked out as sold has now quite a few sections for sale.

Where does that figure come from? Club allocations are usually around 12,000-15,000.

We were sent 22,000 originally on Friday and asked for a further 3,000 when they were sold.

Not sure your figures are correct pal. Stretford end doesn't hold 25,000.

More like 15k sold through the club. (Pretty much sold out now. Only a few left) asked for an extra 3000.

Plus many have bought through the RFL site direct like me. It showed as sold out a couple of days ago like the Leeds side has. Then all of a sudden spaces came available so not sure what's going on. Come Saturday it will be sold out.

Nearly all tickets left are in the Cas end.

I can assure you those figures are grossly exaggerated.
Castleford's initial allocation was less than 10,000

As posted earlier, seats are allocated to clubs, travel agencies, sponsors etc these are not available to purchase online. However, once unsold tickets are returned these areas are put on general sale. Hence the many sections now available in the Cas end.

RFL saying 1k left

Re: Grand final tickets : Wed Oct 04, 2017 9:03 pm  

Leeds end sold out on the RFL website, as you'd expect for a big club. Loads left dahn t'other end though...

Re: Grand final tickets : Wed Oct 04, 2017 9:12 pm  

In fairness to Cas they'll probably have about 60% of their entire population in the ground on Saturday. Leeds on the other hand will have less then 5% of theirs in attendance.

The only people left in Cas will be the burglars!

Re: Grand final tickets : Thu Oct 05, 2017 6:34 am  

Im sure i read somewhere the other day that both clubs received 9000 initially and both requested more and were sent 3000 extra.

Cas have just a few left and Leeds have sold out.

That being said, there are less than 700 left this morning in the whole ground and it will only be the 2nd sell out in GF history.
