Further to the level of interest already shown in this offer, we are delighted to confirm that we have decided to extend this ticket offer up until kick-off on Saturday 18th October (3:30pm). DON'T MISS OUT!
Fans taking advantage of the South Stand Special Offer will pay just £10 per match on condition that they purchase tickets for both matches at the same time, for the relevant area of the stadium, effectively giving them the second match for free.
Ospreys Managing Director Roger Blyth said today:
"The Heineken Cup is the pinnacle of northern hemisphere club rugby, and thanks to this fantastic offer, supporters who buy tickets for the South Stand will be able to watch two top level matches for just £10 per match. In Perpignan and Treviso, we face a tough challenge from leading sides in France and Italy, and these games are vital to our hopes of emulating our achievement last season and progressing to the knockout stages of the tournament. In order to achieve that, having secured an away bonus point against the Tigers, we need to get off to a flying start here in the Liberty, so its important that we pack the Stadium and our supporters generate the type of atmosphere that can lift the players.
"We appreciate that money is tight for a lot of people at the moment, the economic position is generally very tough for everybody, so we thought that this gesture would be appreciated by fans and because it is effectively giving one game for free, and will allow people to attend both games when otherwise they may have had to make a choice between the two."
The offer, which is available on a first-come, first served basis, is limited to the South Stand only, with a capacity limit of about 3700. Children's tickets (U12) can be purchased at the Family Stand rate of £4, and Juniors (16 & under) at the rate of £7. Ospreys winger Shane Williams says that he's hoping that the fans take full advantage of this special offer. He said: "There's nothing like a big game at a packed Liberty Stadium, the atmosphere that our supporters can generate really is second to none and all the players are looking forward to getting another taste of this in these Heineken Cup games. We've had some memorable home matches and great crowds in the group stages of this competition over the last few years, with the Sale, Stade Francais and Gloucester matches standing out. Hopefully, this season's campaign will also see us enjoying some stand out matches and moments, with big crowds getting behind us."I think the Directors deserve a pat on the back for coming up with this initiative, which can only help to generate a better match-day experience for everybody. All the guys realise that the fans can't afford to go to every game, and it's a busy time for us in terms of matches, so I'm sure that the fans appreciate this gesture. I've got no doubt at all that they will respond to this and turn out in numbers to help us pick up a couple of important wins that will hopefully set us on the road to the knock out stages again."
Tickets for both matches are now available to purchase from the Liberty Stadium Ticket Office, or on their telephone hotline on 08700 400 004. (We regret that, while all other match tickets for both these fixtures are available for purchase online, this South Stand special is not available for sale via our website). To benefit from the special £10 price you must purchase an adult ticket for the South Stand, for both matches at the same time. Admission prices for all other areas, for both matches, remain unchanged. IMPORTANT NOTE - While the ticket office have agreed to give supporters an opportunity to make the most of this offer on matchday, we regret that we are NOT able to make any transfer of seats (e.g. from East Stand to South Stand) on matchday. Anyone wishing to transfer seats will need to do this TODAY!
