I reckon about 15k last time we went, probably get a bit more next time, but not massively more.

I didn't realise there would be that many this year!

£10 tickets are a bargain. If you remember at the Catalans cup final we were four rows from the back and that was a good view.

yeah bigger & better every year Dan

Agreed, I don't think I could go and watch another team play in a major final, having to see the elation on Saints fans faces after they've won yet another trophy.

As this will be our first major final for almost 20 years, I reckon we could easily get 30,000 travelling down to London. Wembley way would be a sea of primrose and blue.

I am going because I enjoy watching rugby. If Wire don't make it this year but they do next year I'll go again then.

I've been to the GF for the last 4 years which Wire haven't been involved in and I've still had a fantastic day. Unfortunately we can't make it to the GF this year as some friends are getting married on the same day therefore we are going to the CC Final instead.

They would need to bring the army in to protect the houses and business's of Warrington, should yo make it to Wembley. Maybe 5 or 6 people would be left behind, with 180,000 ish making the trip south... Everton did it in soccer, so who knows, maybe wire can do it in RL, both clubs akin in regards to support and thirst for a big game. The Millenium game and Murryfield isnt enough, once you taste the bis game you want more.

IF we do manage to get there, I will defiantly be going with the missus and in-laws, can't wait to see how much better this new Wembley is compared to the toilet that was the old stadium!

Its nice, but very tall and you get a poop view if up in those high seats, its also rather expensive to buy food and drink inside, no idea why peopel would pay £5 for a hotdog , beyond me that one ! Its a nice venue, jsut try keep low down if you do get there, and dont buy any food inside

We took 30000 in 1975 and about 130000 in 1954.

The new Wembley is fantastic btw, better than Cardiff. Helps if you win like.......
