Can someone tell me what's the difference between the Honours Bar and the Members' Bar?

I suspect some bright young thing in the office proposed it was more WOKE and inclusive not to call it the members bar anymore (sod the history) , and given all the boards with names of players who have achieved international call ups are on the wall, it was 'logical' to rename it to that...

If wanted to be totally honest they should rename it The 'We pay more than others, but not as much a Debenture holders, for our seasontickets' membership bar...

Reading DOK's post maybe they should rename the Honours Bar the Pie & Chips Bar to highlight its main selling point.

Plenty of good places to eat and drink in the warm and dry in and around Twickenham. Just leave in enough time to get to the ground and get the atmosphere. Only if they loose income will things change. I enjoy my match day experience, but don't spend much time other than the match at the ground.

Not knowing what is happening next season will deter many from shelling out money for a season ticket

Alternatively it’s not ‘WOKE’ at all but instead it reflects the fact that Jester & Club memberships no longer come with access to the bar. Hence the need to rename it from ‘Members Bar’.

Um, not correct.  In recent past (i.e up to this season), if you didn't have a more expensive Season ticket (Premier & Gold) and you wanted access to bar, you could purchase a 'Membership package" that allowed access amongst other things, like 6N ticket draw, reduced cost of hire of boxes at stoop etc.

I would be very reluctant to renew if there is still nearly half of 2019/2020 to go. Anything might happen in this chaotic period.

Because I purchased PRC Final tickets direct from Sale, I have just received an email from Sharks which, amongst other things, states that the season ticket arrangements foe 2020/2021 will be deferred until more information is available regarding the shape and timing of next season.
This seems to be a very sensible idea, and one which I think all clubs should follow, rather than asking supporters to buy a pig in a poke.

I spoke with the club today regarding the "Club" members who had access to the Honours (Members) bar....

I argued my case and told them this decision was made without any consultation to those it affects, they sympathised and said they acted for H&S reasons and upon feedback received regarding the overcrowding and they want to make the "Gold" and "Premier" members match day experience better!!... What about the "Club" members experience? Oh yeah.... you can use the Kings Bar, Oh that's ok then, because that's not overcrowded is it? Sorry Quins you're just creating another problem elsewhere. How long before the Kings Bar gets access restrictions on it?

There’s a chance that the club may have one or two slightly more pressing things to deal with at the moment.

Not quite sure what you are saying. Surely if entrance to the Honours Bar is important then a Club Member is free to upgrade their seat to achieve this?

Also easier to get an England ticket if you are a member of a club like Richmond.
