URSC Facebook speculating about a teatime KO on the Saturday. Last year the eliminator games were both on Saturday at 3:15pm and 6:35pm. Possible for the league to schedule the other game in advance of R21 I would suppose.

Kingspan staff supposedly rostered on for the Saturday, which would fit with last year.

If I got a hot betting tip for a horse from URSC FB, I would not be putting the house on it so to speakImage

People claim that the staff at the ground etc have been told to make themselves available for work on the Saturday. It may be true or it may be Image

2 tickets per ST. Usual warning about not being to buy same seat etc. The seat map goes live at 10am if you want certain seats.

Hmmm.

That leaves it a bit tight for a 2045 flight from International.

As it should be, Merv. Those people who were prepared to spend their hard-earned cash on season tickets, for a season when predictions were very gloomy, deserve to get rewarded by being able to buy two tickets to a big match like this.

With only 13.5k available a few ST holders could miss out.

It's a decent offer for once - 25% discount on prices which are similar to a regular interpro fixture :thumleft:

Yeah 20% - typo! I was expecting £27.50 + fees so pleasantly surprised.
