I think there’s a number of issues. My seat was £45 plus the booking fee, I pay £400 for the Season. If I wanted to purchase another seat in the same block right now it would be £58.
I know Premiership Rugby isn’t awash with the money of football and the last two years have hit the Tigers very hard but it is expensive. I just have the one ticket to buy so I can justify it. If you are looking to take the family it will be an expensive day out.
There’s a home playoff game on the horizon and a possible semi final IF we beat Leinster, we could then be looking At Twickenham and Marseille. The games on TV a lot might just be holding back on this one.
Agree Chris that ticket sales are concerning. I think they should have addressed that this week by offering something like and extra £10 off or a half price deal for the Premiership semi for everyone that buys a ticket for this game. They could also have helped by adding some clarity around where the pricing will be for the Premiership semi and where it would be if we are able to reach the Champions Cup semi. I do agree that for general Leicester and Leicestershire sport fans the success of Leicester City adds to the cost, especially as LCFC's run in Europe has enabled a lot of fans without season tickets to go to those games. The cup games for LCFC have also seen a lot of season ticket holders not going or moving seats to cheaper areas and while they have sold out they took a fair time to do so.
Regarding the ground not being sold out for Saturday. I’m a season ticket holder and pay about £35 a month for my ticket. I can’t justify an extra £50 for my seat in the Crumbie stand and that’s if I don’t take my kids or partner. I understand that EPRC have set the pricing but it is something that must be addressed
