Can see what he’s saying though, he’d rather play in front of 70k instead of 30k.
Hopefully without him :biggrin:
How can Gabbidon claim that there are plenty of fans who can't get tickets when the Ireland game didn't sell out?
I guess he meant plenty of fair-weather fans who only want to turn up for the biggest games.Quote:

I don't understand Vokes' comments either, as up until then we were constantly being told that the team wanted to play at the CCS
Even John Hartson said that the CCS was the home of Welsh Football.
The millennium stadium is great when full, but is fecking dire when half empty.
I live in Cardiff and keep telling my son how fortunate we are to have so much on our doorstep.Quote:

Comment of the night must go to Ginge Collins who said in the post match analysis after watching Spain's 4th goal
'Certainly the team me and Dave (Edwards, the co pundit) played in, we never conceded from set plays, in fact we rarely conceded goals at all'.
I had to rewind it several times to make sure he did say it.
England were the opposition the previous time we played there and so there was quite a big build up to the match and what happened was that England scored two in the first ten minutes and then took pity on us and declared - Wales were pitiful that day.Quote:
