I feel compelled to remain  whilst introducing the thread.

Do they not count the Terrace stand as part of Welford Road?

£264 for a season ticket.

EDIT: I see what they've done here, "Cheapest Seat". Bit naughty that as i'm sure you'll still be able to see the players whilst standing up...

Interestingly they show £85 as the cheapest childs season ticket at London Irish, when in fact in certain areas to of the ground you can get an U16 season ticket for FREE when you purchase an adult season ticket.

Quite expensive for a junior Quins fan! £99-£669. What does the more expensive ticket give them?

Newcastle in particular surprise me.

Out two kids tickets were £60 and free.

Even going by the most expensive season tickets here rugby is great value for money comapred to football.

I support London Irish and Arsenal and as a comparison I can get season tickets for myself and my 3 daughters for London Irish for a total of £315 (South Stand unreserved seating).

For me to watch one league game at Arsenal (and I have selected a cat B game so does not include matches against the top sides, Chelsea, Man Utd etc) in a similar seat it would cost me £146 to take my girlies. To see the top sides you can double that.

I feel a bit more analysis is required, but Sale look to be well overpriced and Sarries - well it looks like a long-term money pit for their owners.

Went up to Aresnal last year Ozzy witht the Swans. Match ticket cost the away fans £25. The stewards were taking pics of our tickets as they couldnt believe how cheap they were! Cracking stadium tho...

Spare tickets for Munster fans

£669 for a season ticket! For that money I'd be wanting to pick the team!

At Embra, you could - wouldn't change the results, mind!

They'd give me an entire stand at Murrayfield if I paid them £699.....

Worth pointing out that some clubs do discounts for returning season ticket holders and/or early purchasers.  I know at Gloucester the tickets were all £20 less than above if bought before roughly the end of June.  Other clubs will have similar systems in place.

Concession other than Juniors (i.e. Students and Seniors) not listed either. These can involve quite generous reductions as well.

I think Edinburgh discounted my renewal by £15. I felt extremely valued.

Asbo have the chiefs season tickets come down? I seem to remember them being more expensive than that??

No, they haven't, if anything they've gone up slightly - but I don't think that there are prices set for West Grandstand tickets cos there's none available and a waiting list a mile long, as far as I know

As in, they gave you £15 for admitting to being a ST holder for Embra - fair play to them
