Interesting to see the that very little criticism in the media about Rugby clubs selling their ticket allocations to Corporate Hospitality Specialists. IRFU says they can't do anything about but it would be afirly easy for the IRFU to get officials to buy tickets from touts & ban clubs from getting more tickets when caught.
Imagine the hard time the media would give the FAI if eL & junior clubs were selling their ticket allocations for €500 a go...
:rolleyes:
Agree it is a disgrace. A blind eye is being turned because club rugby is on its knees at the moment. I was at Terenure v Thomond on saturday and there were barely 150 there. The clubs are being offered the money by Mike burton et al and can't afford to turn it down.
I don't agree. Each club receives a fair allocation of tickets. It's then up to the club's members to deceide what to do with them. If they'd prefer their club to get a financial boost ahead of distributing the tickets then they can go ahead and do that.
Agreed. Most clubs do this. It's how they stay afloat. I think Blackrock have a deal with the AIB with regards to this.Quote:
