Indeed. It’s disappointing that UR seems to lack the backbone to make a decision based on the clear legal position. Instead it folds before the opinion of ‘experts’ - opinion which appears flimsy in the light of published evidence. Oh wait...this sounds familiar...

Gutless as feck, legally in NI clubs can train outside in groups of up to 15, but UR stopped this, even one memo was quoting that we were in level 3 , a level in Ireland not U.K., weak pc leadership, feck I thought SLogan was weak, this one is weaker than HM pissing over supporters

I have to say that the decision to not have any spectators was entirely correct under the current circumstances, in my opinion. Rather than being gutless, it showed common sense as well as a perception of how things are shaping up in "political" and financial terms.

Absolutely. Organisations and individuals need to stop waiting to be told what to do. Have a titter of wit (as me ma would say). Too many people dying, hospitals not coping. We're lucky there is rugby being played, even behind closed doors.
Everyone needs to do what they can and those in leadership roles, need to demonstrate leadership. Then maybe they can be trusted if/when we normalise.

So some stuff opening up in a week.

A limited number of fans in for Scarlets on the 22nd then?

I have watched more live sport than most but 1935 on a Sunday night would probably be a first for me!

You may have to if they install those spray things they had at the footy last night.

Should save me having to shower before the game.

Just checked out the ballot. Are UR assuming folks will openly admit they got tickets the last time round or is it a trick question to catch folks out?

Thought that an odd question to ask also, does it matter? You pay your money you take your chances.

We've six season tickets (now six togetherUlster) all grouped on the one account, we were lucky to get two tickets in the last ballot. Does that mean when I answer yes we aren't eligible to gain tickets in this ballot from the other 5 togetherUlster memberships that didn't win in the last ballot? :scratch: :lol:

Thanks Damian but meant it as a rhetorical question, you pay your money you take your chances as per terms and conditions.

As part of the official #TogetherUlster Membership, when permission to allow spectators in Kingspan Stadium is granted, a number of tickets will be made available to purchase on a first come, first served basis. Entry to the stadium will be by purchased ticket only.
Meh.... not bothered.

Were there ever any numbers released for the number of memberships sold? Or will we only find out as restrictions lift and tickets become available to those without memberships? I wouldn't mind getting to a game but don't see the value in paying quarter of the cost of an actual season ticket to maybe get the opportunity to buy tickets this season.
