Only 20 000 tickets sold for Scotland V Ireland

SRU article

The SRU are practically giving tickets away (costing 10 or 20 quid) and yet we can barely get 20 000 tickets sold? Even if somehow they manage to double tickets sales before Saturday that really is a pretty poor effort considering how cheap it is

Roundball season is back in full flow already Everyone knows its wrong, but it's like a guilty pleasure!!!

Well me and 3 of my rugby mates will be there in full voice. However it's not surprising that so many will be staying away, Scotland have hardly been setting the heather alight with our perfromances.

RDW you coming along?

Because Irelands economy is more valuable than the Scotland trophy cabinet.

Radge - I am going with 4 folk from my work, the missus, my dad and 3 of our friends, my sister, brother in law and 8 of his (Irish) pals so we should be in good voice too!

DaDubst - fantastic contribution there

RDW, I was going to suggest meeting up for a cheeky wee Pint if you are interested? but it does sound like you have quite a wee gathering yourself!

I have pals headed to it from Ireland.

But really when England and France are playing at home, the away trips will struggle to draw a crowd. Especially when the other away game is in Bordeaux in southern France.

Thanks for the offer Radge but some of the guys from my work are coming through from the Weedge and have never been to Murrayfield before, and everyone else is descending from various parts of the country so have no idea where I'll be before the game!

It is?! Might be the other way around? And maybe Scotland's trophy cabinet owes less to the ECB and IMF?
