No thanks. Whats all this ‘judgement day’ crap anyway. The highest Welsh region in the URC is 9th in the table and unlikely to be anywhere near the top next June. Scarlets are rock bottom with a points difference of -87 ! They should call it ‘wooden spoon day’ instead. PS. I know they have only played two games but thats not the point.
If we can make money out of the day when nothing else is on I think that's a no brainer ?Quote:

Weren't you dead against having the upper tier in the Ninian stand only recently? Looks like the extra seating could have made us the money if the egg chooses to go there.Quote:

Not a problem at all.
Many, if not all, of the stadiums used in the rugby world cup are primarily football grounds.
The only lovers really are the pubs in town.

football season is long over by then with more than enough time for the pitch to recover
If the income goes against the football club accounts and help us with 'Fair Play' rulings I can't see any reason to say no.
As long as it's end of our season I can't see the problem.
£50 or £60 a ticket sounds about fair:hehe:Quote:

On, but slightly off topic, I agree if applied to football for all decisions.
Attachment 5890
Last season that would have been spent on 0.834 of Ryan Allsop save.Quote:

VAR is awful.
Someone said that the VAR guy should get one look at the incident in real time, not slow motion. That’s it. Any obviously wrong decision would be overturned, otherwise we crack on. I like that idea. Obviously there is a chance the VAR guy could cock it up too but I’m fine with that, we live in an imperfect world.
One replay, full speed, to overturn any obviously horrific on field errors. Otherwise STFU and play on
The point is that the season will be over and it would produce revenue before the pitch gets relaid.Quote:
