Matchday guide: Tigers v London Irish

Figure image
Leicester Tigers host London Irish in Round 4 of the Aviva Premiership Rugby season this Saturday and there is still time to book your place at the game.

Kick off is at 3pm and match tickets are still available. This fixture is not scheduled for any live TV coverage so the only place to see all of the action is at Welford Road.
 
Saturday’s line-ups are announced at noon on Friday on the club website and social media channels.
 
The Tigers roadshow vehicle, known as The Maul, hosts activities outside the stadium and the Junior Tigers Club VIP area in the MET-Rx Stand is also open from 1pm.
 
Turnstiles and all bars and food kiosks open at 1pm and the Tigers Club Store is open all day with the full range of home and away kit. There are also extra merchandise units in the MET-Rx Stand after the turnstiles are opened.
 
In the pages of the new-look match programme we hear from Mathew Tait, 10 years on from a Premiership debut against London Irish. There is also a Tigers In The Park photo gallery from the opening day of the season, Tiger Hunt images of supporters abroad, Matt Hampson’s new Heroes & Villains column with scrum-half Ben Youngs and all the news from behind the scenes, fixture and ticket information, and the Junior Tigers Club pages. The 100-page programme is on sale throughout the stadium, price £3.
 
The team behind the new 500-page Official History of Leicester Tigers are in Final Whistle on matchday before and after the game so come down and order your copy on the day. Everyone who places an order before the October 15 launch will be entered into a prize draw to win an exclusive leather-bound edition signed by some of the past captains.
 
At half-time we’ll have entertainment from the Big Boot with a cash jackpot of £1,150. And we also introduce Challenge Welford on the pitch for our younger supporters.
 
Arriva’s matchday bus services are in operation from Market Harborough, Oakham, Nuneaton, Market Bosworth and Melton Mowbray, all scheduled to arrive 30 minutes before kick-off.

Please allow plenty of time for ticket collections and to get to your places in the stadium ahead of kick-off.
