Unfortunately, they pay big bucks and it all comes down to
money. The RFU wouldn't be overly bothered if the corporates
were to sing, dance and pee out of the window, as long as
they're selling the tickets. And of course, the corporate boxes
bring in more money than standard tickets.

The corporate boxes aren't really an issue to anyone watching on
TV, which is most of the audience, nor most of those actually
attending. Yes, they are irritating from a hardcore fan's
perspective, but most people don't even notice them.

How many corporate seats are there anyway? I seem to remember a
couple of rows of seats in front of each box (the box I was in
was for 16 people I think), obviously at the back of the stand.
Can't have that much effect on the appearance, surely?

Its not rocket science. Just work out who wants a ticket that
qualifies and share them around across more than one fixture.?

Yes BB it absolutely has occurred to me and covered under the
"tossers" banned.
There's plenty of them who turn up at HQ and have never watched
a rugby game properly before, even though they sound/look the
type.
Doesn't mean I want them sitting near me, or rather standing up
all the time to let them get beers/bathroom/pie/see Gerald from
school for a 20 minute catch up mid game.
Just because their family share a season ticket . Also have to
agree with the earlier comment re £150 tickets. Maybe the answer
is reductions for STHs and 5+ games attended and £150 for
others?

So the rich people with more free time get preferential
treatment? Why? This does nothing to solve any problem that
isn't "I don't like the fact that normal people go to see
England play" :-)

Jammy stop being deliberately obtuse. Are you in Troll mode or
something?
