Well, couldn't have two standalones in the final.
Naughty Pontypridd have released the fixtures early, there was supposed to be an embargo until the official announcement on TV tonight
Following Cardiff RFC all over from sunny Bournemouth in Blue and Black
Well I got it from the WRU site.
Maybe they did as well then, but there was supposed to be an embargo on the release until 18:45.
I reckon, given the fact that both matches are on TV with different KO times it has to be the Millennium Stadium so looks like another hotel night in Cardiff for us !
The Swansea v Cardiff match will of course need to be rearranged.
Will the match be played on the Sunday? Seeing as Lanelli Scarlets are playing the Cardiff Blues on the Saturday.
dare 2b different-dare 2b blue
WRU website says neutral venues for the games
Nothing new there Rich. Always neutral. Does not preclude MS double header.
Hands OFF
Could be the Sunday, the matches just have to be played sometime somewhere over that weekend.
It's the union that will be taking all of the ticket money and if they play the matches elsewhere they will have to dip into the takings to pay for alternattive stadia whereas if it is the Mill it's "in house".
During the draw yesterday we were told not a double header. Neutral grounds to be decided.
If your friends dont like rugby ....get new friends!
I have been told that the semi is at St. Helens on the 18th at 2.30pm
Are you sure S4C have agreed to the 14:30 KO, as I understood it the actual KO time is yet to be fixed.
I have posted what I was told in the CAC last night
We will be running a Coach to the game
£7 Members and £10 Non Members
Departing CAP at 12.00 and departing Swansea at 17.00
This depends on 14.30 kick off but will update
Sorry clicked on the wrong thing there!
Text updates please someone. I'm reffing in England that day.
Swansea Sunday 18th @2.30pm
Is there a need to get a ticket in advance......?
Thanks
No, it's at St Helens, I doubt there will be more than 1,500 there
Does any one know why the semi-finals are not being televised
Even more surprising given that the KO times had to be agreed with the broadcasters before they could be agreed and released.
