The last thread was alerting me every single time someone posted and I couldn't turn it off. Here's a new thread.
Slimist of the slim
Can't remember seeing any 'away 6N tickets vs England' on the supporters site. Years ago they had the charter flight package which was not cheap
I suppose Paris the same?
Yup.
Have been doing the Supporters Club thing myself for a good few years now, and have never seen tickets offered that way for away 6 Nations matches.
I've been in the supporters cub nearly 10 years and never seen any handed out. Back when there was a forum the admins would occasionally notify us of wales away tickets, but even that was rare.
Paris has been on public sale before through the FRU, bought ours directly many a time.
No chance re Twickenham.
Tickets for Twickenham are like gold dust but can be obtained, I got one via a club here for the grand slam in 2018.
Paris, I've always bought on open sale from the FFR.
You can set up an alert here for when tickets go on sale for the France game: https://www.stadefrance.com/en/tickets/rugby
But basically, no point in joining the Supporters Club if your main hope in doing so would be to try get tickets for away games.
Cheers lads, might give Paris a go.
They are easy enough to get and its a nice weekend! Stadium is a bit out but they have beer tents and the like set up, good buzz
I actually got tickets through the Supporters club for Twickenham back in 2010 (The Tommieeee Boooowe year). It was one of the seasons Ireland were playing in Croke park and as far as I know the Irfu were able to offer the RFU extra tickets when they came over so got an extra allocation in return.
Early days of the supporters club had some very limited away tickets for the odd game and the ran a charter too.
Just be careful in Paris as close to and in the ground there are alot of "Sans Alcool" Bars
Paris go on sale with FFR, I bought some a while back keep an eye on the site.
The whole stadium was dry when I was there, few yeras back but a seriously nasty surprise! Not sure if thats still the case.
I think in France there was or is an initiative to seperate alcohol from sports and they banned alcohol sales in stadiums.
thanks fella, what a match!
What's the sandymount hotel like before games? Thinking of going there tomorrow since we'll be going in to the stadium at that end
bad apparently, was a post here recently reviewing it.
Wasnt myself that reviewed it here previously but echo what was said. Two portaloos for everyone which after an hour were in utter shite. Overly long bar queues. Bad table layout. Avoid.
Saw on Twitter that there's a tractor protest in town at lunchtime. Bear in mind when planning journey to Aviva today.
Mask to be worn at all times today!! How in the name of god will they enforce that!
They have Covid compliance people in the stands, guess they'll have more of them this weekend.
When are Six Nations tickets available via the Vodafone pre-sale?
Usually the 21st of never
Doubt they will.
Is it worth subscribing to the Supporters Club? Do I stand a viable chance of purchasing tickets?
Impossible to predict, all members were about to get All Blacks tickets as far as I know. This year's 6n will see three home games so probably a decent shot
For anyone that was looking to go to Paris the game is sold out!

In my experience you stand a chance of getting tickets, but it's not guaranteed.
I'm not a current IRFU supporters club member, but would anyone know when the 6n tickets will go on sale to the IRFU supporters? Am thinking of gifting someone the membership but want them to benefit from access to the sales.
Mid December or early January
'Supporter's club doesn't guarantee tickets'
