Quote ="Dave Lister"So you wish to make up £105 worth of value? OK.
Judging by the car parks, it would appear that several hundred of our supporters park their motor at the game for whatever reason. Not being alcoholics, they choose to just come to watch the rugby. At £5 a go, going off 13 games, this results in £65 worth of parking. Add into the fact that the public car park doesn't open for all games, and thats a nice convienience to have. The free tickets amount to £20 depending on if you are a swine and flog them to your pals, so that's £85 already. So we're £20 short monetary value wise. £195 wouldn't get you seats in Gold for every game of the season and I don't think that £20 would quite make up the difference in price.
Is it a bit clearer to you now?

So car parking is the big reason why I would want a Harlequins season ticket?
If I'm an away fan I concede I would want to park in your car park. Once a season. So thats £5. Irrelevent, because as I live in Yorkshire I wouldnt want a Harlequins season ticket anyway.
So lets imagine this ficticious character I invented on my original post who is already a Harlequins RU fan took up this offer. There is a good chance he already knows all the free places to park near your ground, or he already lives somewhere in London or nearby, so most likely he will be getting the tube or the bus to the ground anyway. So the car parking offer isn't going to be of much use is it.
And as for the 'gold' seats I'll let you into a little secret. I have been to the Stoop 4 times now. Each time I bought a cheap ticket. Each time I politely asked the stewards if it would be possible to sit in the more expensive area seeing as there were so many empty seats around the ground anyway. Each time they said yes.
