Danny Cipriani will make his first appearance for Wasps since the removal of a plate from his ankle in July at tonights friendly against Glasgow Warriors at Firhill. Tickets to tonight’s game are priced at £15 for adults, £10 for concessions (including students) and £5 for under 18s. Season Ticket holders can attend this game, and bring along a friend, free of charge. Tickets are available from the ticket centre tonight which opens at 6pm. Also on show tonight against the Warriors in the final preseason clash for both sides is new signing David Lemi who will make his first appearance for the Londoners. Also on show tonight is an exciting back division including Wasps stalwart Mark Van Gisbergen, developing England and Wasps centre Dominic Waldouck and new signings Ben Jacobs and Tom Varndell. Captained by Serge Betsen, the side also features an impressive blend amongst its forward contingent with Lions and England prop Tim Payne, Wasps most regular starter in 08/09 hooker Rob Webber, and new signings Gabriel Bocca and Dan Ward-Smith named. Looking ahead to the game, Wasps Director of Rugby Tony Hanks said, "I think as the start of the season draws closer and closer the squad feel that excitement and hunger and these pre-season games are just a great platform for us to build some momentum and test the hard work the whole group have shown through the off season. "Glasgow will no doubt give us a good game and travelling up there gives us another challenge on the back of a solid performance at home on Saturday. We know there is still a lot for us to build on, but it is great to see another new signing in David Lemi prepare to wear the jersey for the first time, as well as welcoming back a familiar face to the field in Danny Cipriani."
