Re: Amlin Final Tickets
Unlike Lansdowne you should have enough elevation to get a clear view in row F, being closer to the pitch doesn't help in the low seats there, it does in the RDS.
I got two different sets, one pretty good, one not so good.
My first year in the RDS I had fantastic seats on the half way in the GS but used them only at the ERC matches as they put my family somewhere else for some reason I can't recall...

Re: Amlin Final Tickets
Your post above was correct, but this isn't - there's a hedge in front of the grandstand too! Just at the pitch side. The stands don't go down to pitch level (probably because of this) so we're saved front row syndrome. Mind you they sometimes have put temporary seats in front of the normal ones there, everyone stands up when they do.TheBear wrote:Hedgerow is in front of the Anglesea stand, rather than the Grandstand.fourthirtythree wrote:Around the 22 line, maybe wrong side of it depending on the number. RDS Grandstand is quite a distance away from the pitch, what with the hedgerow and all that.
Re: Amlin Final Tickets
Our season tickets are Row E near the 22 in the Grandstand, Bosco, great view you'll enjoy it there...(result permitting of course!!)

Re: Amlin Final Tickets
That's a good point - if Leinster make the final I suspect we will get up to the 20,000 we had for clermont qf with additoinal seating in the front rows and the south stand (?) extension.fourthirtythree wrote:There's a hedge in front of the grandstand too!

I have no idea how I haven't noticed that over the past four years, but it wouldn't be entirely out of character for me.

Cheers, but if I am enjoying the view, its not good for Leinster fans, if Leinster make the final, I will pass the tickets on to a Leinster fanMetal wrote:Our season tickets are Row E near the 22 in the Grandstand, Bosco, great view you'll enjoy it there...(result permitting of course!!)

Re: Amlin Final Tickets
Me too. I thought it would be fun to stand on the terrace to watch a couple of different teams rather than always Leinster. I expected the likes of Gloucester and Stade with a secret hope that a big team like Leicester or Clermont would drop down to the Amlin and decide to to take it seriously and make it to the final. Well, I got my wish about a big name dropping down anyway....[Jackass] wrote:Same.

Re: Amlin Final Tickets
Atmosphere at the game yesterday was one of the best I've ever experienced in the RDS. Place was pure blue, flags everywhere and fans in great voice. Lets hope we can replicate it for the final!

Anglesea, block c, row c, ecstacy.

Re: Amlin Final Tickets
Me too. Got the HEC tickets in last week, no sign of the Amlin ones yet.
Re: Amlin Final Tickets
Mine arrived last week, was part of a package with the Heineken tickets. I'll be in Block L in the Grandstand. Finally get to see what the other side of the stadium looks like.
Look out Itchy, he's Irish
Re: Amlin Final Tickets
Likewise (tickets arriving as a package), but we're in block H of the Grandstand. On the 22 the following day, so about the same standard of ticket for both matches.cormac wrote:Mine arrived last week, was part of a package with the Heineken tickets.
