@simonrug@FinMorrison Good report but perhaps missed the issue of people just getting fed up with the wru, they're proactively p'ing off people who actually put money into the game (regional fans), I've barely missed a wales home game in 20 yrs but couldn't bring myself to attend this one, wru fatigue
@AlasdairGold Disappointed it didn't go to general sale like the Villareal game did, for some fans its our only chance of going to a game, annoying to see empty seats when some of us would happily have taken them
@JacquesMaree73@thepaulwilliams Yup youre right population of j'burg 4.8m, llanelli 25k, and yet one doubles the average crowd size of the other, guess which
@thepaulwilliams C'mon Paul how many are actually there 14? 15 people? More scarlets fans there than lions by the looks of it, absolutely zero interest in being part of this league
@JackoRugby What happens when the tv money goes down because we've got one less entrant... we'll be in the same situation. Trying to alienate the people actually buying into regional rugby seems a poor way to start
@URCOfficial@amazon Also nothing in there regarding
- kick off times
- irregular pattern of the season
- International player availability
- one slight mention of refereeing standards
ALL shite by the way
@URCOfficial@amazon Even that survey assumes away fans don't exist in this comp, says everything. I said I've been to games this year then asked to score my own teams facilities this year, didn't say I'd been to a home game (I live 115 miles away)
@AndrewJ0y@simonrug Well in part yes I do, how many aspects were down to a lack of match practice, line-outs for example. Did you think we'd go away to the top team in France and win? It's disappointing but it is what it is, I wouldn't say it was down to lack of effort
@ChampionsCup@scarlets_rugby You might have forgotten how much us scarlet fans have fought off a bit of travel adversity before when coming to games in the west country, Bath 2002 anyone? We'll be there regardless
@ChampionsCup@scarlets_rugby I'm all for supporting the next generation of talent coming through but I don't expect to see it take a hiding against a pro outfit and the fans expected to fork out top dollar for the privilage. Considering moving the game back a couple of days could probably solve things
