RWC 07 Build up starts here....

[Kaip]

I did'nt go cause I could'nt be ****ing arsed

[FatTony]

would you call 50 quid + to see the japs in a one sided game reasonable tickets? no, i think not.

time to shut the **** up fella

A world cup game, maybe one of the only world cup matches to be played in this country for many, many years....yes 50 quid is reasonable.

never mind shutting the **** up.... the truth hurts.

At the end of the day you have your opinions and I have mine.

My excuse for not going was that it was a Thursday night and couldn't be bothered to go when I wouldn't expect to be home before 12-12.30am with work the following morning, plus the fact that it was live on the telly so I could watch it on my comfy sofa sipping a glass or two of wine.

I can't tell you why every other Welshman/woman was not there just guess at some reasons why it was almost half-empty!

If you care so much about the Welsh game and it's fans why didn't you go along then?! If you did, well done you, but if not why?

I'm not into egg chasing, the only interest I have in it is from a betting point of view.

I'm sick to death of rugby fans taking the piss out of football, claiming that its the national game, the welsh don't really care about football, yet the game can't even half fill, let alone sell out a wc match.

I'm not having a dig at anyone who didn't go in particular, just shocked that there wasn't enough interest in it to sell 74,000 tickets.

-Wales has the population of Birmingham, but spread over a much larger area
-It was a weekday

Those two simple facts meant for any working people from West, North, or even Mid Wales it was going to be difficult to attend. It was overpriced, against toilet opposition, and not everyone is made of money. Enough people attended to have nearly filled Anfield. Not good enough, yes, but evidence of Wales not being such a rugby loving nation after all? Ermm..no

If you want to know how much of a rugby loving nation Wales is then you might want to look at the number of people watching it in general, not just on one occassion. Maybe go around the pubs when the rugby is on and see for yourself, or better still see this much more common sight at the Millennium stadium... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZpYog...elated&search=

Stick to what you know then.

Fair enough!

I knew the stadium wouldn't be full anyway as it was against Japan and at 8pm on a Thursday night. It's usually the case with these types of midweek matches, even if it was a WC match. That's life!

Ireland Argentina

Am I right in saying that if we beat the Argies by more than 7 pts and score 4 tries against them, both us and them will finish on 15 pts?

If so, does it come down to head to head meaning we will go through?

[ronan]

yes i think thats how it works
not going to happen though barring a miracle
utterly rubbish so far.all talk.
either way were out imo
even if we beat the argies nz are going to wipe the floor with us.

[thesilverfoxlfc]

Im going to this on Sunday im well used to Miracle matches having been in Thomand Park for the Sale and Glouster matches but i will go mental if they manage to do it on Sunday.

If im been very positive we have a big match in us and we are a better team than Argentina man for man but obviously not in this World Cup

I gotta have hope im spending enough to go over
