How many people?

Post by champanzie »

I am just wondering how many people do you think will be at the game on saturday?
Do you think it will be a sell out?
Come on you tigers!

At the rate sales are going, and the over priced tickets, no it wont be a sell out. Should have lowered the ticket prices a bit, or offer family deals etc.

Current number is about 25000-28000

I read on one article that Bath had sold only 1700 tickets, I was expecting double that. Capacity is 32500 so to sell out we would need > 30000 tigers fans.

I do not think it will sell out to be honest.

I can't understand why the Club pitched the ticket prices so high . Given that the game is televised with a 6.00 pm kick off , I would have thought that really keen ticket prices would have been needed to assure a sell out .Also , playing Bath again( 4th time this season) is not quite as exciting as a game against Toulouse or munster .

Tigers do not control Ticket Prices. They are set by ERC.

I think it will top 30K

I hope in excess of 30K.

I know some people (neutrals) who have bought tickets today based on Tigers televised performance last week.
Today is yesterday's tomorrow.

Not true.

ERC set the ticket prices for the Semis and the Final. The quarter final prices are set by the home clubs.

£30 is pricey. Think confirmation of 20,000 early last week so I would assume mid to late 20ks.

I got mine for £24 in one of the corners but by the sound of the guy when I rang up, they were closing in on a sell out. Only time will tell - hope Saturday evening gets here quickly, last time I was able to go was that awful game against Wasps at home! I want that memory erased quickly!

I am unaware of any market data that says the market is price sensitive.

25000 tickets at £30 = £750K

If we reduced the price to £25 would we sell 30K tickets?

Same revenue.

I hope its a sell out, with lots of flags, loads of atmosphere and a TIGERS win alongside a Blues win. Fancy trip to millenium!!
