whilst Wiganers have snapped up 20,000 tickets, and are hoping to have nearer 30,000 fans there on the day, the signs from over the hill are not as 'rosy'

this from the Yorkshire Post

CUP finalists Leeds Rhinos are hoping for a late surge after disappointing Wembley ticket sales.


The first week before the Carnegie Challenge Cup showpiece against Wigan Warriors, on August 27, saw Leeds sell around 4,500 fewer tickets than last year.

Wigan’s initial allocation is understood to be virtually sold out and Rhinos chief executive Gary Hetherington said: “We are faced with the possibility of having to send Wigan some of our tickets. It will be very disappointing if we have to do that.”
