Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread
Oh fùck me, the media love in started in 2000, when Rog kicked that conversion in the famously bright sunlight of Thomond Park at 5 o clock on a January Saturday. The point was that Munster got the 2.30 slot prior to the floodlights being installed and kept it. It was the main/only rugby slot on RT...

FWIW I read somewhere on Twitter today that last years round of 16 match at LR generated € 1.4m for Leinster, after the € 400k rental fee, and 35% of the gate receipts going to Ulster. It really shows the importance of a home match in the round of 16; and must have Ulster and Munster looking to use...

Interesting quote on the BBC website re Man Utd:
They faced 28 shots here, their highest total on record in a Premier League game at Old Trafford, and 62 in all in two league meetings with Liverpool this season - and yet have not lost in three games, the FA Cup tie included.
