Maybe 10 less Sarries fans? 90 instead of the usual 100?

[Tervueren]

At a pinch the South Stand could be used to seat all of their International Players

[RogerE]

Not only fewer Sarries fans - but here's 2 Wasp fans who won't be able to make it as well.

This is also a distinct possibility with an after midnight get home. Plus silly prices for the hotel - instant mark-up??

This has brightened up a seriously bad day. Thank you.

[Stinging Wasp]

Two more missing here too. TV money talks but so does season ticket loyalty, so that's it for us, we'll just travel to away games from next season. Thanks Wasps. Great decision!

Relax mate, what doesnt fit you might fit others...

Unfortunately, TV money is the big bully and doubt that Wasps actually had much say in the matter.

To be fair, Wasps probably had very little choice on this.

[FishingWasp]

Always going to be a problem for the South East based fans, whether Wycombe or London or further afield , but at least Friday games have been remarkably few since the move to the Ricoh.
Mrs FW and I will try to get there regardless, but we do have the advantage of being retired, and the consolation that the game will be televised, and if we wanted to miss a game, it would be against $aracens.

Not as bad as away trip to Bristol last season. Booked trains & hotel on the basis that the game was on Sunday afternoon. A couple of weeks beforehand, game switched to Friday evening because the football club had a Cup match & they had primacy at Ashton Gate.
But we did win!

Yep.  Still, there's nothing like a bit of over reaction because a single fixture has been put on an awkward day.

How many games have been played at the Ricoh without there being a Friday? In my mind they should be congratulated for succeeding to go so long without one, rather than crucified for a game they've been told to move by BT.
