I stumbled on here in april 07 as I had 2 tickets spare for tigers v scarlets which turned out to be a great game
I stayed for a while to exchange views and ideas with fellow rugby people. It's been interesting , its been fiery, passionate, there's been plenty of thrust and counter thrust, plenty of baiting and the odd harmless mickey take. I hope no-one has taken any offence if so I apologise. I just like a debate but hurting people is not my intention.
overall its been fun and interesting insight into england's best rugby club
you know where my allegiances lie and come what may tomorrow and beyond I wont be the kind of cat that purrs as he steals the cream. every dog has its day and thats the nature of competitive sport
This is the best game in the world. the culture is the best in the world. it has grown properly at the right speed showing respect for all peoples and cultures involved. lets hope it stays that way and the roots stay strong enough to survive the onslaught of commercialism and self interest.
In the meantime I'm sure one day probably unaware we will cross paths on a wet day in rugby country. You cant miss me Ill be screaming at the ref.
As with all visitors on here, even beyond our understandable parochial leanings our real love is with the game itself. It's always good to quit before the Lord mayor's show, not after and tomorrow is pretty close to being such a show.
Besides, win lose ro draw, it doesnt change anything, if you truly believe in something you dont need proof
so thanks for your hospitality and until we meet again, good luck and good night
