La ROGelle January 2023

[BR]

I posted on a different thread but will repeat my plea here!
We're three non-Ulster folk but will be in La Rochelle to support in January. The one thing we don't yet have is tickets and I am getting slightly concerned by the fact that La R apparently are a sellout for every home game.
Could anyone here kindly point me in the right direction for where I could acquire three tickets? (will happily pay you back with a pint in La R)

No charge -


Stade Marcel Deflandre

This allocation of tickets will then be released for general sale from 10am on Friday 18 November until Friday 23 December. (This should now be available until 23 December)

Categories / Adult Price:
2: €48
4: €38
5: €33
6: €29
7 (Standing): €15

Please note La Rochelle have advised that you will receive an order summary but you should only download your ticket 15 days prior to the game.

Ulster only got around 1,600 tickets, apparently some of the categories sold out.

But they're on general sale now, right? So that'll be ASR supporters.

General sale of Ulster allocation, of course if a La Rochelle supporter had the link, they could use it. Only certain parts of the ground.

Game seems to be sold out from a La Rochelle point of view, their fans will no doubt snap up any unsold Ulster tickets.

You mean the link that Grumpy posted above?

Ahh - the ASR will never find that.

[Cap'n Grumpy]

For the record, I never claimed that any or all tickets for sale on that link would end up in Ulster hands.

El Presidente asked a question, "where could he get tickets for the match?"

I answered his question, being the good-natured sort that I am.

No thanks necessary, El Presidente . . .

. . . Oh, none forthcoming . . .

Ho hum!

Enjoy the match and stadium experience all who manage to get tickets and get there for the match. Sadly I won't be one of yous.

Sure wasn't it always so? Do you remember back when Ravenhill used to be sold out and we'd be quite happy to pick up any of our guests' allocation?

Getting tickets was relatively straightforward. Getting there for the match may not be as simple.

Specially for an aul han like you.

The fact that the LA Roc allocation is sold out is a compliment to Ulster reputation in the Competion

It’s a nice thought Rum.

But not true obviously.

The only seat going spare at that place for about the last five years is the one that ROG is supposed to sit on.

[Jetstream]

ROG banned for 10 weeks by the authorities. It is his fourth ban in a year.

Don't for God's sake try to link any of Rumns ramblings with the truth

[Dave]

You only come to see the Ulster
You only come to see the Uuuulllster...

Sing it for rum.

[justinr73]

Alright.

I think I may well have asked the les Toulousains if we could play them every week, in their native tongue, last season.

Mind you, that could have aged better.

Ha, sorry Cap'n and I do offer belated thanks. We secured tickets through that link and looking forward to the excursion now.
I believe it's up there with Clermont in terms of the stadium atmosphere but will report afterwards!

[El Presidente]

Even going to Ravenhill tomorrow as an added bonus.

If of course you get it defrosted!

Might be more than I'm managing.

Been crippled with sciatica the past 5 days and also Covid +ve.

Will do a late fitness test tomorrow morning, firstly to get down from two little red lines to one, then decide if Tapentadol, Gabapentin and amytriptyline supplemented with as much paracetamol, codeine and hip flask (Bushmills) as is safe, topped off with a TENS machine will get me through 2-3 hours of standing on a cold terrace.

If all that comes together, I might even be coerced into trousers instead of shorts for the first time this season.

If the forecast temperature is to drop to minus figures I may possibly even consider wearing socks for the first time in years. Nah, cancel that. That would be just an over-reaction!
