The HEC experience - feedback

although i wasnt there, it looked great on tv....we need to remember 10 years ago leinster playing in donnybrook for a fiver in and munster not filling the old thomand etc......it's a journey and it's started. it will take a lot of work and will take time.

the academy is wonderfully productive. we have a competitive A squad. and a reasonable home ground. these are wonderful building blocks for the future.

need to grow the season ticket holders and yes getting fans through the gate is number one.

I also think we will hold onto more players if we can stay in h cup for next year.

all very promising indeed.

Just something that was raised in another thread.."Opposition Players Safety and Respect"...A number of people have commented on how they seen the Toulouse players heckled by teenagers and -_-s after the Game on Saturday, I myself seen one incident where the Lads involved were not very respectful and were more or less trying to Piss the Toulouse Players off.. It would be awful for us to be finally sitting at the Top Table of European Rugby and then for us to pick up a Terrible reputation. Invading the pitch is one thing but pissing the Other teams players off are is not on!!

Stewards or something must intervene on such incidents, Other posters have stated that some Stewards on Saturday were teenagers??

I really hope the pazazz and fireworks were not only for Toulouse but for the other 2 remaining hec games also.
it sounds like the glaws game might he a busy one too!
announcer good looking but pain in the bum to listen to!!!

Cheers Diom. I hope the branch will see that we've all had a great time and we're not here to bash, just note things to improve and make the next HEC matches even better. We've only three left, so let's make the most of it!

i gotta say i loved last saturday, the game was good, buzz around town and the sportsground was flawless.

music before the teams was my only problem, hell it was loud and didnt think it was needed,

i went to the clan bar after, was fairly full when most people left the bar was as full as i've seen it this year.

the new lounge in the clan bar is a work of genius. benchs all the way around with tables and stools.
i was sat there with 5 others, all drinking, another group sitting across from up, about 8 in there group. when we were leaving there were people waiting to sit down. felt very happy there enjoying what i love most. my friends and connacht rugby, the sport i live.

i said this last year, re season ticket, if the free pints were no more, then to hand out €2 coupons discounts rather than having full price. little idea for next year alex
