That thought occurred to me too. Time will tell no doubt.

Do you reckon more than 10K will turn up ? I intend heading down after church so shall be suitable attired,

I'm disappointed not to be able to go, but if I was going, I'd be in my Ulster top. As WW says, UB haven't specified what should be worn from what I can see.

From the 606v2 site on Thursday from a poster called Rava:

I have just returned from Ravenhill where I spoke to the staff in the Ticket Office.
There isn't a specific dress code and people are encouraged to attend in whatever form of dress they feel is appropriate.
I will be wearing my Ulster shirt as will those travelling with me.

Thanks Moondance. I'll be coming from church so will be in good clothes but i may pop the Ulster shirt on over the top

I would be very much surprised if it was anywhere near that.

Old stand and terrace being used. Good 2000 plus here already

Around 4000 people turned out I'd say.
Rory Best give a nice speech about Nev.
Also was nice to see the whole Leinster squad there plus BJ Botha Paul O'Connell and dougie Howlet. Thought i caught a glimpse of keith earls as well.

POC,Dougie Howlett, BJ & Axel Floey there from Munster and what looked like the entire Leinster squad.

Correct Snipe, Leinster out in force and also Munster well represented, fitting tribute and service to a very decent person.....

Enjoyed the service, Rory was very good indeed.

Hope somebody dealt with the eejit from Ballymena. It was an occasion where you hoped there wouldnt be 'always one'
