Next season's Heineken Cup

[Neill_M]

Toulouse 26-17 La Rochelle, early red card for La Rochelle. Now 4th in table 5 wins from 8 games.

Their tight head props are huge!

[UlsterNo9]

So Toulouse beat La Rochelle at a stadium we beat them last season and Sale get stuffed at home this weekend.

European group games in the bag !

We played at the football stadium, not Toulouse's regular ground

Sale away is a game Ulster can win, not be easy. La Rochelle away will be a very hard game.

Ah ha, and the ground is the only point where my theory of absolute certainty falls apart

The 1pm kick off leaves the Sale away game very achievable as a day trip, AJ Bell is about an 11 mile taxi / Uber ride from Manchester Airport.

If that's the sale price, I would hate to see the price before hand.

[Marco]

It’s a special low sale price to see sale at sale, and I love a good sale.

Couldn't see tickets on the shark's site. Checked with UR and they said they will be on sale today at 1300 hrs. I was also assured that we wouldn't have any problems purchasing what we want despite UR not taking an allocation.

Why did UR not take an allocation? Surely this is the norm with whatever is not sold returned to the club?

If you watch Sale home games, not exactly sellouts say v playing in La Rochelle where there is an away allocation for firstly STHs then a general sale later in the November.

Got my tickets for the West stand but I can't say the Shark's website is intuitive to use as you have to register as a member before you can buy tickets. If you want a group together you need to buy them off the seat plan. For anyone going and staying in Manchester/Salford the stadium doesn't appear too easy of access. The club do though run a shuttle bus from the Trafford Centre which is easy to get to on the tram. Have to be booked in advance @ £1 RTN. Get them through the shark's parking site.

Agree. The way it's set up the Ulster support will be scattered throughout the stadium except in the standing areas at the ends of the ground where supporters have a chance of gathering together.
