Slightly o/t but, I've just opened an email which is a 2 years to go to the opening of the Yawnion World Cup and i've never been to a union international.

Even though I've been to loads of RL internationals the RFL haven't sent any kind of mailshot or email for the RL world cup.

We should take nete

I get a RLWC2013 EZine update in my inbox occasionally.

Reports that more tickets have been sold for the Limerick game than the matches at Hull KR.

Linky Linky!

To be fair, a lot of bar staff will use the game as an excuse to visit Ireland......I don't think East Hull holds the same romanticism for the chain rattlers

Think that says more about HKR than Limerick, given that Limerick has sold around 2,500 seats and anything between 0 and 3,000 standing.

I think Saints will have one of the bigger challenges.

With the England match on in Huddersfeild, there could be a fair few from West of the hills going to watch the match further afield.

Most will assume an Austrailian win at Saints, so could be tricky to get close to a full house. If they get 10k I reckon that will be doing well.

I know we are going to Huddersfield, we considered doubling up, but can't now.

I have been to loads of GB matches and RL finals and probably should be on some sort of mailing list.

Despite this, I have received nothing about the RLWC.

I live outside of the 'heartlands'. I have seen next to nothing about the tournament in the newspapers or on television.

Re: World Cup Ticket Sales : Fri Sep 27, 2013 4:35 pm  

I live outside the heartlands, and on my travels I've seen RLWC posters at London Underground stations, a 3 day trophy tour in Bristol, and a reasonable amount of press publicity in the SW.

I live in gosport near portsmouth and get loads of the rfl abought the world cup

Re: World Cup Ticket Sales : Fri Sep 27, 2013 11:18 pm  

Sorted out semi final and final tickets before.

What concerns me is the fact that our tickets have cost us £12.50 each (for the final) and £15 each (for the semi final) using a promo code. That's ridiculously cheap for such an event.

Sorry if I've gone over old ground...

booked 10 for the England v Ireland game and hoping to take in the Italy v Tonga game at the Shay too.
