Forum to enable fans to provide help and tips on travel arrangements to away matches, as well as for opposition fans travelling to the Irish capital for matches.
55 for Jury's isn't bad value, considering it's location and all that. Places like the Two Mile Inn would be cheaper, there's a Travelodge too, but Jurys is very central. I'd say any saving you'd make elsewhere would be wiped out in taxi costs etc..

They'll presumably go on sale on Ticketmaster so they'll have a chance to get them like anyone else?
Do the leinster branch not get an allocation as the away team?
Apparently so, but I wouldn't trust that route. I was screwed around by the branch for the match in Ravenhill last December. The branch decided to only supply those travelling on the bus to the match with tickets, despite telling me it wouldn't be a problem beforehand if I wasn't getting the bus. First interpro I'd missed since Connacht away in 03/04, and I'm still p'd off over it.
For the Connacht game this year, the branch apparently got no allocation - they probably didn't request them, which is a bit silly, as a number of people always travel for these matches, and unused tickets can be returned.

Should do. . have asked on the official site what the number is and if season ticket holders will get preference over the general public - will post up any reply I get.
Grrr for living in another pesky country, and for the MB to have the game on a normal working day, in working hours. Have to think how I'm going to sneak out of work for that one, and get to the pub.
