Ospreys away 7 May

Post by justinr73 »

Looks like the East and West Stands are open - which block is likely to have the least Welshmen in it?

Any decent watering holes for a jar before the game?

I don't recall finding any on previous visits to Swansea!

Where are you heading for in terms of seats Justin?

I'm looking at tickets here myself, but keen to have some Ulstermen in the general vicinity!

Probably EL8 Tazz.

Dunno whether or not we'll have access to the rest of the stand?

I gave up some nice seats at Cardiff to hang out with the blazer boys!

I'll be bringing an Ulsterwoman with me but I don't know if going to 6 away games on the spin grants me honorary Ulsterman status or not :scratch: :lol:

You have already been awarded the honorary Ulsterman status when you turned up in Parma last season :red:

Much appreciated Rooster - it's been impossible to get rid of me since!

I'll settle for an honorary Ulsterman Justin, especially accompanied by a full blooded Ulsterwoman. And especially on Rooster's word! As long as I'm within guldering distance I'm happy!

Any ideas for pre-match beverages?

There's a Spoons near the centre of Town.
Was told it's the best place for a Saturday night out there

Looks like the 'spoons (The Bank Statement) and the No Sign Bar (haunt of Dylan Thomas) will work. Close together on Wind Street.

Should be knocking about from 12 but going home after the game sadly.

On previous trips to Swansea, it's been carnage on the main drag from noon!

Good stuff, sounds like there are a few options.

I get into Swansea station at 1, and likewise heading home on 8 o'clock train.

I've ended up in EL3 having had to use my mobile which doesn't allow the seat selection feature!

We might end up in EL3 then.

Looks like the type of seat that Hollywood Mike would take up to get on tele.
