Leicester Tigers has called upon Stade Français to finalise the venue for their Heineken Cup Pool 3, Round Two match scheduled for Saturday, October 29 (kick-off 2pm - local time).
Leicester Tigers managing director David Clayton said: "As soon as we became aware that Stade Français were investigating the possibility of moving the fixture to a stadium outside of Paris, we contacted the club to express our concerns.
"We expect to take over 1,000 supporters with us for this game and a lot of those have already booked travel and accommodation. As a club we have over 200 booked on our official travel packages and we have also chartered a plane to transport the team, its support staff and supporters.
