Rejected petition RFU need to urgently review ticket prices for RWC 2015

More details

The RFU need to be forced to review and amend the price of Rugby World Cup tickets to ensure that the event is available to all.

Prices for some of the lower graded games are priced extortionately. If these games were at a more attractive price The RFU would fill the grounds up and help subsidise the higher graded games. In turn this would make these matches more accessible to home nation fans and not just businesses, clients and higher net worth individuals.

The issue is fairness and these prices are not fair for the normal supporter. It is a disgrace and it is a sign of greed and RFU ignorance of Rugby development.
