Rugby:With defending champions Leinster joining Ulster in an all-Irish Heineken Cup final thanks to a thrilling win over Clermont in Bordeaux, all roads now lead to Twickenham but fans hoping to get their hands on tickets will face an anxious wait.

A few hundred tickets remain on general sale for the decider but are likely to be snapped up on Ticketmaster in the coming hours. A more reliable option for fans looking for seats is to go to the provinces but as both will only receive an allocation of 7,500 only season ticket holders are likely to be accommodated.

Ulster will afford 2011/12 season holders until 5pm on Tuesday to purchase tickets. In the unlikely event of any remaining they will be offered to 2012/13 season ticket holders on Wednesday. Affiliated clubs will then be able to purchase on Thursday and Friday.

Leinster have yet to confirm when their allocation will go on sale.
