Cutting it pretty fine even if there aren't.
It would be cheaper to book on the Ryanair flight at stupid o'clock for a tenner and waste whatever money you spent on the later one. Then you have hours to get there and the train is 2 quid. Bus to the ground from Coventry probably similar price. It's about 3.5 miles. Birmingham to Coventry by train is only 15 mins.

Lordy - buying away tickets on Done deal, hope you never paid over the odds, apart from a HC final they always pretty easy to get.

This game won't sell out (they have a month to sell 45k tickets), will wait to buy from our away allocation so am in with the rest of the blue - support will be dotted around the ground if people buy in different sections from Wasps.

We've decided to fly into East Midlands on the 08.00 flight instead so we'll ll have an extra couple of hours to get to Coventry and it was only €9.99.

Anyone know if I can still use my Ryanair return flight if we don't turn up for the outbound one? I know it used to be that case where your return was cancelled if you miss the outbound but I thought I saw somewhere that they changed this.

This should cover you query. The short answer is yes, you can use the return portion.

How are you getting from EMA to Coventry? It's not the easiest trip to do by Public Transport.

The bus into Nottingham should take about 45 minutes or so. You get dropped off fairly close to the station. Then about and hour on the train? Not sure where the buses to Derby or Leicester drop off.

The OLSC normally announce where the away allocation is, you can just buy in that area from Wasps.

Andy Goode scored 33 out of wasps 48pts today as they routed Lirish in front of 28K at the Ricoh today.

Would say they will spread us out as much as possible, most clubs have copped on that this is usually the best thing to do and often a useful way of getting rid of poor tickets.

I'd normally go where their season ticket holders go. But this isn't a normal situation. It won't sell out so I am happy to wait.

Leinster stick a few quid on top of the price (Understandably enough) and always end up with the worst seats in the house (not their fault) But I am starting to regret that I didn't buy seats on halfway for £28 (20% off) which are no longer available, as we will probably pay over the odds to sit in the corner or behind the goal.
