Grow up……..piss@d up valley slappers and pretty-obese fat valley boys who can't sing the anthem and don't understand the rules. Complete stereotypical cr@p. Wouldn't mind if England win.


Love how the valleys get slagged off. Pretty sure The Valleys makes up a big percentage of Cardiff`s away followings and at the Cardiff City Stadium. :roll:


Yes you're right mate, it's a fact that 50% of Cardiff City's support comes from outside Cardiff, which is fine, because we're all bluebirds :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

I'm no rugby fan and agree the crowds on international day are about the occasion not the sport BUT i was impressed yesterday by the atmosphere specially the way the crowd were worked up pre match. (Music, fireworks, smoke etc) Dont understand rugby but seeing our players annihilate the opposition was impressive.

As to wishing Wales lose then slagging malaysians off for flags in ground is beyond belief.

Hmmmm... Firstly a 75,000 crowd with a closed roof is always going to make much more noise than the CCS also the Championship was in the bag with 20 minutes to go so the celebrations were building for some time before the end and against our arch rugby rivals as well.

The other comments made on this thread do have some parallels with us though. Clueless new fans jumping on the glory bandwagon wearing red with red dragons depicted everywhere. Perhaps when Tan invested he chose the right country but the wrong sport. :ayatollah:

That is pathetic, there are women and children there, supporting their country, my sister and niece are there, but hey that is the sort of one eyed comment I would expect from football only supporters, there is far more friendships made watching rugby, no segregation needed, just people out for a good time.

75,000 Fat pissheads 3 times a year, not week in week out a Fact.


I was up my local and found it very funny, men and women screaming their heads offbut but know fu*k all about the game and never go and watch the Blues or Wales. Glad they won of course but if i am honest I just couldn't stop smiling we won and and rivals all lost and looks like Palace are going to lose as well. :malky: :malky: :malky:

It was a great win for Wales :ayatollah:

The atmosphere from the start with the rugby was electric, there is no getting away from that.

Clive Woodward said before the start of the game he has never experienced an atmosphere like it and hes managed a world cup winning side.

I dont like rugby as a sport, and as I have already said I am not really patriotic, but listening to the players and fans belt out the national anthem was spine tingling.

75,000 * 3 = 225,000

20,000*23 = 460,000

When you factor in the freebie tickets they are terribly supported. We'd get stupid people through our gates as well if we had a massive stadium and gave out freebies. The Brighton game was proof enough that if something is free people will take it regardless.

Im more proud of the fact we, a section of Wales, take in a lower yet consistent amount over a season than 200,000+ in just a few weeks period.

If we had United, Liverpool, Chelsea and Man City one after another at home in our fixture list we'd fill the Millennium Stadium if we could use it and were giving out that amount of freebie tickets. Make no mistake about it.

Granted there would be fans there who want to watch just a game of footy, fans who support the other teams in our end but then at the rugby there are fans there who just go to go on the lash or have a day out.

The Blues give away shit loads of free tickets and their attendances are really poor. Welsh football charge minimum prices for tickets too.

The fact is that Welsh international rugby is brilliant to watch for the social and the great sports on display. Nothing to do with freebies as people pay well over the odds for rugby tickets.

Fact is there's something to play for in Rugby......if Wales football could get on a good run or qualify for something they too could get good crowds and cracking atmospheres back. :ayatollah:

Add another 2/3 games every year for the autumn internationals.

People say how Germans create atmosphere and how can we get like them. Well they make a matchday like an event, just like the rugby, they buildup the atmosphere all day like the rugby. Whether you like it or not it puts us to shame.

Re: Say what you like about the Egg Chasers

Never understand the slagging off from some of our fans towards rugby. I'm a City season ticket holder who also went 2 the rugby yesterday. Was probably the best atmosphere of any game, any sport I have ever seen! Although it was expected with so much on the game. I'm expecting the game we get promoted 2 be just as good though! Also why do people seem 2 think the WRU gave so many freebies out? Tickets for yesterday's game were like rocking horse shit and I didn't hear of many freebies?!

Rugby atmos sounded great but it was a massive game that went brilliantly well. Bit like City v Leicester in play offs, Jacks when we won etc.

And the magic is still there away Polo - I still love it.

20,000 tickets were given away by competitions for Ireland game.

Source? I don't believe the WRU gave away 20k especially when they only had 2 home games this tournament!

Re: Say what you like about the Egg Chasers

Sun Mar 17, 2013 10:34 pm

They didn't give them away no.. but radio competitions and newspaper competitions buy out thousands of tickets for Wales games and sell them on which they will make loads of money by texting a certain number.

Also I am sure quite a few thousand tickets go out to Local Welsh rugby clubs like Pontypridd and that.

If you honestly believe 75,000 people buy tickets from WRU for the price they charge then you are most likely brain dead.

Yes, clubs and schools all get ticket allocations... Guess what, they still have to be paid for & certainly aren't "given away". :thumbright:

They don't pay the price they charge to people who go the ticket office. Our rugby club usually gets charged like £10.

Re: Say what you like about the Egg Chasers

Sorry but nothing you have said is a fact.

20k+ free tickets and £10 tickets for rugby clubs?

Think you've got this wrong mate. Every club in the Welsh leagues apply for an allocation of tickets for each game and then sell to their members. Every time I have ever done this through my local club over the last 10 years I have paid face value for the ticket.

Sell to their members? They sell the tickets to anyone on the cheap.
