Agree that Cardiff stadium location better and hopefully next year I can see more than I did this time, Yes food etc quite dear the nearer the ground you got but isn't that the case most places ? Worse thing for me was although distance very similar it took me a lot longer to drive to Scotland.

Nothing it saves me a fortune at €7-€8 for a Vodka and 7up

I think we have to remember as well that a lot of SL fans who travelled up to Scotland for the weekend bought their tickets at the ground. Therefore the official figure is not really very accurate. As so many people in Edinburgh didn't even know that there was anything on I can't see that many locals would have bought tickets at all.

Give me Cardiff any day.

How many people actually knew that Scotland A were playing the French 1/2 a mile from Murrayfield on the Friday night? Not many. They didn't even advertise that.

Give me Cardiff any time.

And as for going to Dublin, forget it. What as Dublin got to do with the UK. Newcastle would almost be like going abroad as well, just imagine trying to understand the local jingo.

Give me Cardiff every time.

A quick niggle, following Murrayfield.

When we won the title last season, I was a bit miffed that they didn't play 'We Are The Champions' onver the tannoy. I figured that the RL didn't want to shell out for the priviledge.

Thank god they weren't so stingy when it came to something really important, like the Mascot Highland Games.

This weekend's CC games attracted just over half the numbers that travelled to Edinburgh last weekend.

Perhaps next season they should play all of the fifth round ties there in an attempt to boost the Challenge Cup attendances?
