Another great stat: The largest crowd at a RL match in Cumbria for 23 years.

Here's hoping that this re-ignites the love of the game in those people who may have stayed away up there in recent years. And here's hoping the RFL follow this interest up.

The cumbria question is not an easy one to crack. I'm not sure it is crackable. But again another good news story on the back of this world cup.

It's just win win win. Now we just need the national teams to do a bit of winning.

Perpignan will sell out by the end of the week.

Seems they've opened up the south stand at Saints again.

Still not sure of the purpose of the 2 sections supposedly on sale. Surely two sectons next to each other would have been better.

I think the sections in the middle are reserved , so can't be sold to the public

Re: World Cup Ticket Sales : Tue Oct 29, 2013 8:23 pm  

Oh in that case it's not so bad if they are pre-sold.

Due to a large amount of corporate/hospitality packages I read

Well Saints have reported that the west stand is sold out. So that's 3,943.

The East stand had sold about 700, it holds 3975.

Saints are reporting CGE sold out, not sure they are the right blocks but they hold about 400 - 450 each.

So if the middle 3 grey sections are sold to corporate, you are talking about 7-8 thousand sold.
