I don't know any women who use that word. Like I say, it's very "middle England"

He's usually elevated several times in every match. :scratch:

Congrats on your win though. :lol:

What are the views of the great and t p on here about next season's season tickets sale? Prices frozen, pro rata refunds on any match where restrictions rows reductions, .. .. what's not to like?

But if restrictions on numbers? Odd numbered seats this week, even next? But you can't attend with your mates. And what about th e half time toilet queues?
Im not sure I want to speculate 500 quid at it this point.

it will interesting to see if the lack of viewing opps will drive people to their local club..... i doubt it, but it would be great. Some of our junior and senior clubs have invested quite heavily on new outdoor spaces for socialising etc. If you have a chance, please support them in these difficult times.

Is a price freeze a price freeze when you cut the number of home matches from 14 to 11! :shock:

Assumming the European Round of 16 home leg will be included in the Season Ticket? Too far a stretch?

That would make 12 games

Yup too far a stretch, we'll get a friendly to bundle it to 12.

£50 off motor insurance with AbbeyAutoline for 21/22 ST holders.

Mine is up on 18th July. I ran the details through their quote generator, and even with £50 off, they're still too dear.

To be honest at face value the quality of the 11 games next season will be higher than the 14 on offer previously for same money.

What are you missing out on..... the two mud Saffer teams and one Italian home fixture. I'd nearly pay not to watch that.

Ok,

League games only in 19/20 season Ulster played/scheduled to play but C-C due to COVID v the four Welsh sides, Zebre, Glasgow, Edinburgh, all three Irish provinces and the Cheetahs - 11 games.

In 2021/22, Ulster will play 9 home games (2 Welsh, 1 x Scottish, 1 x Italian, all the Irish sides and 2 x South Africans).

So you lose 2 Welsh sides and 1 Scottish side and the Cheetahs but gain 2 of Stormers/Lions/Sharks/Bulls.

In theory with the new schedule of more games outside international windows, stronger squads.

Neill
A valiant attempt to present the New schedule as better value for money, but still a bit underhand for UR to present "frozen ticket prices" with 2 games less!
Premium ST should be about 100 quid less!
I will probably give it a go for one more season and see if the quality of squads and competitiveness of matches improves. Not continuing to pay this sort of money to watch B teams.

I see Ulster have quietly dropped the price freeze from all their season ticket promotions! I really wish they were more honest with supporters. We are supporters more than customers after all!!!
