Excellent news if they have, and if it’s a local derby they’ll be swinging from the rafters

There were special prices for season ticket holders against Leinster but some supporters thought the game should be on the season ticket, no doubt the same people will say the same again.

Not sure how these people think that a game that is not guaranteed at the beginning of the season can be included in a season ticket. But there you go takes all sorts

Damned if I know how they think that but some do, I was talking to a guy just yesterday that said that he wasn't prepared to pay £40 extra for his seat, I questioned that amount and learned that he had ignored the time scale given for season ticket holders to buy at a reduced price and was upset that when trying to purchase a couple of days before the match he was asked for the full amount. I just hope we get a near sell out with great vocal support for our team but without a band or speakers trying to lead it.

:smt017 There were special prices for season ticket holders against Leinster too...

Our last home Prem semi final was in 2013, the attendance was 20,243.

I'm not sure where this idea that we should be able to sell out knock out matches at WR has come from, because it just doesn't happen. I'm not sure we have ever even reached 21,000 for a knock out game at WR.

Other clubs are struggling to find 10,000 fans to attend a game, and we're getting annoyed with the club because they haven't been able to find 25,000 people to pay to come to WR.

25,000 people is quite a lot of people and club rugby really isn't very popular.

Totally agree especially in early June. Some old duffers like me still think the season ends on April 30th except 7s

As it’s likely to be one hell of a showdown v Saints it will be a sell out.
If it is Saints their fans will turn up in their droves expecting to get revenge.
If it happens everyone will want to be there!

That’s one thing I definitely agree with! Iirc it was always all home league games,group stage home games and LV cup home games. Was there a home friendly thrown in too at one stage?

If Tigers can get the tickets onto general sale before the opposition is confirmed it may also help the crowd be a bit more pro Tigers, as well as approaching asell out

Encouragingly, the ticket office is experiencing "a high volume of calls".

Had to queue online a while, but have bought mine. £22 each compared to £30 for the Leinster game (or £38 had I left it too late). This is for the Mattioli Woods Stand.

Have they announced the actual game day & time?
