As long as that figure is more than zero then it would be a really shitty thing for EPCR to do considering they've been advertising the KO time for several months. fair enough but the police only changed the FA CUP start time a few days ago. as others have mentioned it will impact the TV audience, ...

it's not hate.John. It's schadenfreude. The more the person loves the sound of his own voice and chasing down the media to get in front of a camera, the sweeter the schadenfreude is. Only today, the special one has thrown his hat in the ring to be the next french coach!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: https://...

The quote today about being too big to accept an assistant coach job isn't a particularly good look. He's also speculating publicly about another coach getting sacked, again. That's Priceless! A touch of Alan Partridge thrown in too. The gob on the special one is f**king enormé, to borrow a phrase.

Meh. No interest in wasting energy hating anyone. Or letting them "live rent free in my head" as the saying goes. it's not hate.John. It's schadenfreude. The more the person loves the sound of his own voice and chasing down the media to get in front of a camera, the sweeter the schadenfre...

While I see your point, I would be surprised if there were a lot of fans doing that before they knew who was in the finals. No? As long as that figure is more than zero then it would be a really shitty thing for EPCR to do considering they've been advertising the KO time for several months. fair en...

Moving the kickout time doesn't really benefit a lot other than TV audiences who'd watch both or people looking for a better selection of sports bars It's gonna take up your day if you're going. London can take a few big games and the police were happy for the event to stay the same time. It's not ...

Yeah, just screw over the people who’ve booked flights based on a kick-off time they’ve been advertising for months now. Great strategy. that's a fair point for those flying in and out the same day. it's expensive to do that, at the best of times and not many airlines will offer free cancellation, ...

FA Cup Final is confirmed for a 3pm kick off, currently clashing with the rugby (2:45pm). Apparently the EPCR don't want to move the time as their audience in France is impacted with a later kick off with the French Cup Final PSG v Lyon and the Cannes Film Festival. Police moved forward the FA CUP ...

As an aside, I bumped into one of the ECPR team on a flight from Dublin to Zurich a while back. He is from Cork and commutes regularly to Lausanne. I doubt they knew the FA cup final dates when they announced their European rugby weekend dates. It moves around a lot...usually the last sat in May. Lo...

Any tickets pls

there's a separate thread for tickets. https://leinsterfans.com/forum/viewtopi ... 91#p863725

A lot of the tickets already sold for the Investec final with a 2.45pm kick off stated would be a further issue. Especially with many having travel arrangements booked. While FA CUP Final tickets aren't released until after the semis. yep, it would be disruptive but they don't issue the tickets unt...

shame that there's a clash but I think London can absorb two massive events like this. Let's face it...lots of soccer stadia around London fill out most weekends in London, along with Hyde park concerts etc and it doesn't grind to a halt.

John G has collated the run in very well on the Quickening thread:

There’s surely no chance of us flying players out for the second game? I’d have rather expected players to fly home. i would put mostly the same team out next week. give them a chance to redeem themselves, so to speak. flying out a cavalry is not a good idea imo. munsters win almost cancels out the...

Another painful loss for La Rochelle yesterday. Sitting in 5th (top 6 teams go into the playoffs) 3 points clear of 10th place. Badly need a win against Toulon next week to stay in the mix and, at the very least, qualify for champions cup next season. Genuinely cannot see the special one cope too we...

This year's trip to SA is very akin to last year's. Underresourced team. Surely we could have given Kelleher and Conan and Connors much needed game time? Andrew Osborne has got more opportunities than merited to my mind. His defensive reading makes Stockdale look good. But maybe that is down to our...

yep. Munster did us a massive favour beating bulls.

3 points separates 5 to 11. squeaky bum time for Connacht & Ulster for the playoffs. Whatever happens now, it's been a great league this year. Probably the best in memory. Hugely competitive. agreed. I think the SA teams have been a fantastic addition to the URC. Shame about the welsh teams but...
