Bargain!
Another one for the rugby fans... but one I thought I should share with you.
I've just bought a season ticket to watch Edinburgh at Murrayfield over the 2009-10 rugby season. Included in the price are a ticket for:
All 9 Home Magners League matches
All 3 Home Heineken Cup Group matches
3 Home Glasgow matches (including Glasgow v Edinburgh)
and a Home pre-season friendly against Harlequins.
Tot up how much you reckon that would come to. 16 games of rugby at what, 20 quid each? That's £320.
Edinburgh are offering the season ticket for half that - £160 for adults. And it gets better for me because - as a student - I qualify for the concession price. Half it again. £80. For 16 matches. That's a FIVER each.
Have to say, in the past (actually, in the present too) I have not been impressed with the SRU and their marketing strategy - particularly when it comes to Sunday Six Nations matches with late kick off times making it difficult to get back to anywhere outside the central belt before Monday. But on this, in light of the current financial climate, they've got it spot on.
If you are interested - have a wee look at the info here. It's as good a bargain as you'll find at the moment.

They should sell like hotcakes at that price. It's about time they had a decent pricing system.
That's not bad at all - if you like rugby, that is:-)
