A fair few Widnes fans have been put off by the price (and having to purchase in advance) I believe. Demand probably would have picked up nearer the game but understandable Saints will take them back to sell to demand.

I doubt Saints could have sold on the gate at this match as it is to secure a safety certificate so I would imagine they will need to know in advance that they are under the agreed limit. As for the price, that debate has been done to death I think!

I agree mate and I will be going even though I think Saints will win comfortably.Widnes fans are too used to Championship prices.Personally I would rather pay an extra £5 to have a better atmosphere and quality.

I know mate. Fully understandable IMO.

If people don't want to go fine, but also a good amount of RL fans don't seem to understand supply and demand

Well this fan has been put off and I make pretty much all the home and away games.

I'm afraid I have been deterred from going by the price as I think it's exorbitant to charge that much for a friendly game. I think Warrington and Swinton both charged a tenner in?

See you all (metaphorically speaking) on Feb 3rd...

Squads: http://www.widnesvikings.co.uk/article.php?id=6865 I'd go with: Briscoe Flynn Marsh Isa Ah Van Watts Hanbury Cross Moore Kavanagh Allen Winterstein Clarke I'd start Cross as I think he's less likely to suffer an injury if he plays from the beginning!
