It turns out it's 50 minutes. There's a good selection of seats available and I'm glad I waited.

I've drawn the short straw as ticket purchaser and money collector for my group. Anyone able to tell me what the upper tier of the south stand will cost?

Ideally in euro, most of us wouldn't remember much before it's introduction :lol:

As someone who was alive and had pocket money before 15th of Feb 1971 I can confirm that 30 bob, £1.50 and 1 pound 10 shillings are all the same amount of money.

Decimalisation - I remember the excitement well. Wanna tell the whipper-snappers what a farthing and a half-crown are? :lol:

Was such fun in primary school learning to add up pence and divide by 12 to get shillings then divide by 20 to get pounds.

To think that poor old people couldn't handle the decimal system where you could just move a decimal point or add a zero.

Hendo will miss this game now with a broken wrist.

They're saying that kelleher's injury is the same as the one he got in Paris last year - took him 2 months to get back from that one

Yet they've kept him in the squad which doesn't really make sense?

Unless they eventually discovered a suitable treatment for the injury which has a short time frame.

Think it's time to give JOB a run at 13 for a few games.
We've shipped a few injuries during the 6Ns and are likely to ship a few more over the course of the next couple of months so it would be good to see how JOB goes at 13.
