flyingscot Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 Seeing Clive Woodwards comments criticising the Barbarians game as a circus and embarrassing to professional rugby. He really is a numpty isn't he? Perhaps it would have been less embarrassing if England had turned up and played the game against a team thrown together. Or maybe if England would consider the effects of a stupidly tough club season and Eddie 'drill sergeant' Jones training camps. Woodward managed to outstrip the New Zealand Herald's criticism of Pat Lamm for worst opinion piece in a newspaper this week which was good going. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingscot Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 Edinburgh being busy. New temporary stands on back pitches making a 7.6K stadia around a 3G pitch. New logo (which was fag packet) and colours of orange and blue it seems.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm presuming the image below is simply missing the pantone colours that a professional would use. However they have been marketing themselves as Black and Red Army. Pretty drastic change to the blue and err orange army. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyingscot Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 And in further SRU news, the 3rd 1872 fixture won't alternate, so Edinburgh get home advantage... Glasgow and the west shafted yet again! No doubt another nonsense kick off time which saw folk struggle to get home by public transport. Joy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detournement Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Forcing Glasgow to lose a home fixture and taking the Pro14 games off FTA TV. Has Regan moved to the SRU on the quiet? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northsea80 Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 I think they’re trying to pitch Murrayfield as a neutral venue for the final 1872 game. Doesn’t seem to be working with a lot of Glasgow fans judging by replies on twitter. A price hike and a game fewer than what was promised last season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Connolly Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 The simple solution would be for the two earlier games to be at Scotstoun. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presumably Edinburgh’s home game is at little Murrayfield but the neutral one is at Big Murrayfield I would find it easier to feel sorry for Glaswegians if I had never been to matches against the Old Firm at the “neutral” venue of Hampden 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northsea80 Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Little Murrayfield won’t be built in time for the new season. Both games will be played on ‘the international pitch’ at Murrayfield. The situation with playing Celtic/Rangers at Hampden and Glasgow having to play Edinburgh at Murrayfield as a neutral venue are completely different. While Celtic and Rangers get the lions share of the stadium they don’t play there every other week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
