Block 112 - Row 21 - 8 tickets secured and bizarrely allowed 2 extra tickets who were not season ticket holders on request so fair play to RFC.

They have played a blinder with this and communication has been excellent.

Did they give a reason why you got member tickets?

loyalroyaldaz In the ticket office or online uptheprem?

I did hear that all the academy players have been given 2 plus all the ball boys and girls.

And i also re-affirm that this is fine but just tell the poor supporters.



Oh and by the way, shout out to the bloke who strolled in through the outdoor unchallenged and wanted to by a ticket for London Irish, you COMPLETE KNOB


Got mine online. I was just saying earlier that Semtex stated that block 120 was reserved for hospitality, which they weren't. They may have taken some of them before they went on sale this morning but they were definitely on sale at 10:00 the same as other blocks.

If previous big games are anything to go by staff won't have been given any tickets. They will have been allowed to buy one each though, which is reasonable given most work on match days so don't have a ST or any points.
Senior staff may be handled differently.

Told them the dilemma, no qualms in giving 2 more.

I wasn't trying to upset you dear boy, I was simply offering an insight to others on why certain blocks were unavailable for purchase. On Friday we were told that blocks 121 & 120, as well as some Club Wembley seats, were reserved for us. I guess they released block 120 if there were seats that were not taken up by hospitality guests.

Thanks to other posters who have tried to explain this point...

Having seen how many people were able to queue for hours on end on a Thursday it would seem that the song "We pay your benefits" could equally be directed at our own fan base.

How do so many people not need to go to work?

3x Block 113 booked. Incredibly easy to do this evening online. Can't believe I'm saying it, but very impressed by how the club have handled it all so far. And baffled by those who went down there to queue for hours today. Each to their own, I guess.

One quick question (apologies if it's already been mentioned, but hard to keep up with all the threads), but my tickets say 'blue upper 113' on them - are they splitting the block into lower and upper, or is it just something written on everyones tickets? There sort of looks like it's been split on the Reading Seating Guide page, but not on any other Wembley Seating Charts. Would be quite happy if that's the case - the further up on the lower tier the better in my opinion - but imagine it's just wishful thinking at the moment!

Alternatively, how many of us are in charge of our own time to the extent that we can do as we choose -i.e. Self employed, own a company etc...

Evidently quite a few. I had no idea that many people run their own businesses but are unable to use the internet.

Being a non ST holder this is the only thing to have annoyed me today. I don't deserve a ticket yet as a lower points holder and therefore I have to wait. My sister has the same "dilemna", but I told her to sort herself out with her friends.

She would like to sit with me and her nephew in his first trip to Wembley, but we weren't going to risk it.

Now, I expect Paul has 2 tickets for friends with high points and they would be fine, but that is not the point.

Either - have a system and stick to it - or don't.

Fair play to you, but poor from the club!

It appears that tickets sold at the ticket office in person were for the front rows, but not sure how many rows. Tickets sold on line are for the back rows. Not sure if its an equal split but could be upper is above the walkway and lower is obviously below.
