They must have released more I just bought two on tickets.ie a few mins ago.

Just a heads up. I tried to get a ticket for the Clan Stand for the Ulster game for a friend, and it looks to be sold out. Hope there's a big crowd there

17 members of the current squad members or graduates of NUIG ? Must remember not to call them stupid this season !

it was just under 4000 last season so just a small increase expected for this season.

I'd take that quote with a big pinch of salt. Numbers are down quite a bit on last year. Might have a little over 3000

Obviously, Tom is going to exaggerate the number, to try to increase interest.

From today's IT, article by Ms MacKenzie, quoting Mr Sears

www.irishtimes.com/sport/rugby/connacht-...excellence-1.1515150

“This year we will have over 4,000 season ticket holders and at big matches we will see 9,000 people plus."

Unless there has been a huge jump in the last three weeks, tickets aren't close to last year, which is a shame

Season ticket sales "are on about a par with the same stage last season."


Personally I'm a little disappointed but I suppose the massive gains in the previous 2 seasons were unsustainable.

Until they can extend the capacity on the Clubhouse/Clan Terrace or Main Stands sides, I don't see it growing much more. Can't see anyone buying a season ticket to stand in the rain at either end of the ground. one off tickets yes, season tickets no chance no matter how cheap...

The doggie track will mean that no permanent development can occur behind the posts, so sooner that the Clubhouse side get's a second tier the better.....

Have folks received details of season ticket portal etc. methinks I am missing updates as my email address changed recently. Thanks. Bring on the wasps!

A guy I work with just got a call from Connacht Rugby, saying they were down to their last 40 Clan Terrace season tickets and if he wanted to renew. I imagine there'll be a huge spike in sales this week and next.

More Season Tickets in the post Season Ticket_card_2013-14_revised

Thanks Diom, was getting paranoid, I thought I had seen that other's had received theirs.

People who bought only one had their ticket sent earlier as they did not have to update their names. It was presumed that the ticket they bought was for themselves. For those who bought multiple we have had to wait a bit longer.

So do you have to register? Paid for my ticket in the branch a couple of months ago and hasn't arrived yet

No, only if you have ordered more than one ticket. If you have only ordered one ticket then I would have thought that you would have received it by now as they sent out the first batch a while back. I would contact tickets.ie to check that out PB.
Seeing as how you paid at the branch I would recommend asking them to check that you are registered with them. It could be that your order was lost in translation between Connacht Rugby and Tickets.
