Think I'm with Fergal on this one. Yeah, sure, a good atmosphere is great to have, but we're paying quite a bit of money to see the team play, and it's pretty hard to get excited about the muck we're getting at the moment.

complete tangent but Fergal Keane's book Road of Bones is possibly the best book I've ever read, top 3 definitely

IMO atmosphere at Leinster HC games better partially as people can sit with their friends without having bought tickets in the same purchase

I haven't disliked the atmosphere at a Leinster match for years, when we ran the old farts who hated chanting/clapping/standing out of town.

Could well have been cancelled when it became obvious that most of the questions were going to be about whether there would be a terrace included in the RDS redevelopment, which there won't.

Hold on! Is it now certain that there won't be a terrace? :shock:

Not from Leinster, that's for certain. Word is still that terrace will be included but who knows as it is RDS gig
