Can't see Glasgow taking more than 1500-2000 (they are entitled to half).

Public sales for us look like from Friday.

Will there be a public sale for non ST?

Thanks Hornet, I know when we are selling our tickets was hoping to see if I could get some from the Glasgow allocation before they send them back to us.

Hi, my friend who's out of the country (and a total iTard) is the email address associated with the season tickets. I have both the tickets at the moment, could someone post the email here or pm me with a copy. Thanks
EDIT got it.

I'd be amazed if they got anywhere close to that to be honest. If we took 2000 to Glasgow I think that'd be a good result, I'd say they might bring a couple of hundred max. Tickets shouldn't be a problem, question is where they out us...

Gerry is saying Glasgow will take 4-5k; unless theyre flogging them to corporate groups thats a full home gate for them, would be great if they did but would be amazing

[Slipper1]

After 'registering our interest' are we then allocated tickets? Do we not have a choice of what price bracket or where we would like to buy?

This sounds like an ideal opportunity to shift shite seats on those that they know will be certainly going, by their early registration, and leave the more attractive allocations to ensure an easier public sale in a short period.

I sense a conspiracy, where's my pitchfork..

Not how I read it. Once you get your password to buy you will be able to buy tickets throughout the price range (a la the semi).

Wow, boy did I call that wrong! If they do that'll be great for the atmosphere and will also ensure that all season ticket holders are accommodated.

Cool, that's sounds much more sensible and practical. To be fair to LR, they have their stuff together on tickets at this stage and unless you go out to seek issues, they rarely appear. Unless you're me and regularly screw up the purchase process.

Can't see them bringing more than 1k, which would be about ten times more than a usual travelling crowd. There's a lot of excitement about them teaching the final, but as we all know with the provinces here, the growth phase does take a while to take off.

once theyre not all like the rambunctious yahoos from the visit to RDS before last

Not quite a full house for us these days - been averaging 8,000 for the last few weeks. But still finding that figure hard to believe (as much as I hope it's true). Think the interest is there, but to take those numbers the club would need to put on transports for large numbers at a reasonable price.

What is pretty much certain is that this will be our biggest ever travelling support (although the previous best is only a couple of hundred at previous semi's/in Toulon). You guys need to remember, this game is a far bigger deal for us (and for all of Scottish rugby) than it is for you guys - you have been in many finals before, but we've never been here, and who knows how long it will be until we are here again. Therefore, think a lot of people who have never travelled to an away game before will be travelling for this one! (For similar reason, I really think if Ulster had won on saturday there could have 30-40K at a final in Glasgow)

Price of a Ryanair flight from Prestwick to Dublin the day of the final jumped from £100 to £370 within an hour of full time - so there is obviously reasonable numbers of people booking! Now, we just need a couple of 747's chartered by the club a la Clermont last season to get us near the 4-5K...



Congratulations to you guys on making the final again; I'm surprisingly looking forward to returning to Dublin (felt so low after the semi-final last season we vowed never to return to the RDS..) to watch the 2 best teams in the league fight it out. Suppose it's only fitting our first final should be in Dublin - our 7th trip in 3 years! Here's hoping we get a great advert for the league, and a new name on the trophy

Also think the is a nice irony to BOD playing his last game against a team he spent much of his career avoiding

Hope you do come in big numbers, really make a great day of it. Its a 1.5 hour drive from Belfast to Dublin these days so driving or getting a coach is a reasonable option too.

[Dave Cahill]

Got the ferry from Belfast for the 2009 HEC final, so it should be doable alright. AFAIK you can book straight through from Glasgow - train to stranraer, ferry to belfast, train to dublin all on one ticket

Not Stranraer these days. Ferry terminal has gone. Train to Ayr, then Bus to Cainryan, Ferry to Belfast, walk to Belfast Central, then Train to Dublin. Perversely it cheaper to travel by Rail/Sail via England and Holyhead - Dublin Port, (and from personal experience less stressful). Route Glasgow - Crewe (or Warrington Bank Quay) - Chester - Holyhead - Dublin Port.

[mtleinster]

I think there will be an extra couple of the London Scotish types who would travel to big games but not back up north for smaller games.

How many came over for the Edin v Ulster game a few years back?

[raith rover]

Leinster might be surprised at how many Scots are going to the match to support Glasgow in the final. This is a big match for Scottish rugby and the clans are gathering for it !
