Wasps away.

Post by Spraggs »

It's still nil all in the last pool match this year, but if Northampton manage to beat BO with a bonus point and deny the visitors one then I'll shave my head and eat the hair.


If Biarritz do indeed win then we'll get Wasps away, very winnable. Probably the best away fixture we could have hoped for. Munster seem to have been less fortunate drawing either BO or Llanelli, two in-form teams (granted the second half against Irish was cr@p but I'd still say the Scarlets are better than Wasps.

Hopefully the match could be played not in Wickomb (Wasps' home stadium, 10500) and could be moved to London, that'd be a good trip!!! :D

Depends on the win. But who ever tops the group is 1st or 2nd seed with the other being 7th or 8th. So it doesnt really affect us. As far as i can see this match is basiclly to decide who plays at home in a reapeat fixture in the QF

No. LLanelli will be in the top 2 no matter what.

Would love to book the flights for this trip this afternoon. We know who we are playing, what are the chances of tickets? If it's played at Adams Park I'm thinking slim.

If I thought the tickets were likely to be easy enough to come by then i'd book the flights tonight.

I'd say it will be tough for season ticket holders. The branch will get around 2K and Tout Travel will need to be looked after. :roll:

I think we get 25% of the ground so should get 2,500 tickets. A good chance of getting one so

I'd reckon most St holders who go over will be able to get tickets. A quarter of 10500 is 2625. There are 4000 Leinster ST holders. How many of us would be going over. Scrap that, this is gonna be difficult. Are we sure the venue couldn't be changed?

2,500 to the whole branch though, correct? I'd be thinking just 2,000 to the ST holders. There are 3,500 ST holders, and I reckon 75% of those will want a ticket. That's 2,625 people looking for 2,000 tickets.

Comments on the above maths are very welcome.

Anyone know when the quarter final date and time will be announced? I know it's the weekend of the 31st March, but want to wait for the date/time before I book flights....

Forgot about Tout Travel in my Maths. Tickets for this could be difficult.

Having just read through the relevant arithmetic, if my calculations are correct, it looks like W v L irrespective of the result of the Biarritz match.This match is of relevance to Munster's destination -at the moment it looks as if they'll be heading to sunny Spain.

I'm in the same boat - cant really do the Friday-Monday thing (to cover all potential kickoff slots) not sure when we find out the actual fixture date. . .flights are already high to London that weekend anyway.

Tickets are going to be tough to get regardless of if your a ST holder or not. . .as Combat says Tout Travel will be accomodated first :evil:

Why would Wasps want to move it from their 'home ground' ???
