There was talk of some matches in Reggio Emilia at one stage but that never transpired, would be a decent spot also.

Parma is the better of the two for a league match, Rome is OK for international matches
No brainer. Parma. It's a class place for an away game. In the top 3 trips in the league season (Treviso, Parma, Galway). Hopefully there will be no clashes with the F1/Film Festival/Fashion Week for the Italian trips in 17/18.

Parma is by far the best away location. For those who have been... you all know why (if you can remember)... for those who haven't been - if they do play there again, take the opportunity.

Apart from the rugby, it is an ideal spot to branch out from to visit Milan, Verona, Venice.....

Sad if it goes. Was looking forward to a few beers in the square and a nice meal in la Forcetta!

Jono has done his ACL. He won't be here until Xmas.

I wonder has e-geek already highlighted to Jonno the games that they can lose/bother not to turn up :banghead:

I wish he'd highlight those games to me, then I wouldn't bother to turn up either,

Hard to believe they could conspire to promote less interest in the Diddy cup than they already have....

A great spot by Ruckover on the B&I thread - with the A side's games confirmed - we are looking at R1 away R2 Home R3 Home R4 away R5 away R6 Home games in the Heiny group. Only question is will the trip to La Rochelle be in Dec? BT would surely want Quins Wasps double header.

It would be traditional to send us to best trip when travelling is most difficult and expensive
