In keeping with the trend of partnering with a major sponsor from outside of the traditional rugby heartland, what about the Muff Liquor Stadium?

Did we ever stop? Really and truly I'm sure most of us could hardly bring ourselves to say it or at least felt awkward in doing so.
I have my own tv channel, what have you got?

Given our last performance the Ben Dover stadium may be appropriate.

Sponsorship by Pornhub would be interesting....although it would probably offend our local virtue signallers who aren't offended by Kingspan or BOI, but innocent young men..

Shame Bolton have beaten us to the Toughsheet Stadium.

Ridiculous price for a programme - typical Ulster Branch gougers!

Outrageous.

The programme only contained the starting XVs and Tommy from Comber's great-granda was less than happy with the accuracy of that.

For reference, a seat in the Granstand was also 3 bob (the equivalent of about £11.75 today)

Little known fact: Corneilius Rae tripped on the steps and was awarded 3/7 in compensation.

Surely the three bob was the admission price with “complementary “ programme? Even UR can’t be charging nearly 12 quid equivalent for a programme!

I also heard that Cuthbert and Doris Quinn put in a complaint, but they had to withdraw, because there was no access to family planning at the time.
