Please tell me you're bringing more than one over

As I mentioned on another thread (before it got merged) don't count on actually seeing any of the Millennium magic games on the big screen in the more popular pubs in Cardiff.

Sadly Saturday 13th is 'Rugby Day' in South Wales. This is because Wales are playing Scotland in the 6 nations in Scotland (k/o 5pm) and virtually all the pubs will be showing that. Cardiff will be awash with drunk stocky looking blokes with short tempers wearing Wales RU jerseys (unless they wear their Italian ones because Italy are playing England in the earlier fixture) whilst the women will have Welsh coats of arms painted onto their Orange fake tanned faces and will be wearing glittery cowboy hats and probably carrying large inflatable daffodils. Later on that evening the same girls will be heard screaming encouragement to their boyfriends as they fight one another to a standstill or be seen holding one anothers dyed hair back off their faces whilst they throw a mixture of lager and half digested kebabs up all over the city centre before being thrown in the back of a Police van and driven to Canton cop shop to sober up.

Also Cardiff City FC are playing Shorpe at home on that Saturday and another popular city centre pub (the Prince of Wales) is considered to be a Cardiff City supporters pub on matchdays. It's fair to say that SOME of their supporters are not particularly keen on the English or Rugby league.

I've checked on the Walkabout website and that confirms that they will NOT be showing the Rugby League in Cardiff either.

Good planning to hold MM that weekend.

NOT

1) a Walkabout? meh
2) why are you interested in whether a pub is showing the RL games: if you want to watch them, go into the stadium.
3) It's the weekend it is because a consultation of fans, including an online poll on the RFL website, showed that having it as the opening weekend of the comp was the overwhelming favourite of the fans.
4) merger, hey …

Well you might find there are some supporters of either of the 2 Hull teams or Leeds supporters who might not really be that interested in paying to go and watch the likes of Catalans/Harlequins etc and might have preferrered to watch them for free with a few beers on the big screen in one of the city centre pubs.

Just a thought of course.

? If they're not interested in paying to go and watch the games, they'll still be Hull or Leeds. You are aware that your one ticket gives you access to all matches?

Or just poor trolling again?

Maybe some people whose teams are playing on the second day have only bought a ticket for Sundays fixtures.

Perhaps those same people would therefore have liked to have watched the Saturday fixtures in the pub rather than paying to go in on the Saturday too.

I've heard Yorkshiremen don't like to part with money unnecessarily.

holes … digging …

....like you had to ask
