I think what people are wondering is if Ulster was a well run professional organisation that knew what it was doing and 'fought for every inch' would the match be taking place at Ravenhill? What are your thoughts?
He wouldn't have his own thoughts. Just that of his employer.

Everyone is fully entitled to express their opinions. The events of the last week have been a complete and utter fiasco.

The email from UR said there would be something about "refund options" next week.

How much does a full Ravers generate for an ERC game - £750k maybe?
Well if you bought a ticket for the game - the refund option is straightforward.

If you are looking for some sort of recompense as a season ticket holder, this is where they may provide you with options

Everyone says he is a jolly nice chap who visits clubs and engages with Ulster fans wherever he goes.
But as a CEO he has done Sweet nanny Adams.
Can anyone list one improvement he has made since his appointment.
But sure everything will be allright . He will leading the singing at the Ulster Carol Service next week. If it's not moved to Dublin because of weather conditions.
Personally think engaging with fans over Twitter isn’t a good idea. Some of the comments from our fans are beyond embarrassing to him.

I’m not sure what a CEO at ulster rugby does so it’s hard to pass for me to pass comment.

Couldn’t agree more with this comment.

Facebook ulster rugby supporters are beyond an embarrassment. Would never dream of posting or engaging with someone on there. It’s a cesspit!

Jonny and the grounds team would have had a better feeling about it than any external person 24hrs out given the forecast. I'd doubt it was offered and I probably think they wouldn't have taken the risk. Hindsight eh.
High chance I reckon.

Doesn’t look like BT Sport are going for the free to view option for the match. Didn’t hold out much hope for it. Feel sorry for the French fans as I can imagine what it would be like if roles were reversed. Incidentally has anyone heard any comments from them?

I’m guessing he hasn’t got his flights and hotel booked.
I'm pretty sure that was meant sarcastically.
I doubt it.

Zut alors!

Sure they'll all be having a whale of a time eating overpriced crepes at the Continental Market. Most of 'em probably only came to do their Xmas shapping at Primark.
