Guys

Check out the Glasgow Warriors website: www.glasgowwarriors.org

Looks like Sat 5th May is also the start of the Glasgow 7's, part of the HSBC World Series 7's

Glasgow are setting our match up as one of their biggest games of the season in trying to make the play off's of the Pro 12

Full day of rugby in Glasgow, morning and afternoon, get a chance to see some of the world’s best 7’s players then on to our match to finish off the Pro 12 and maybe help Ulster grab the last playoff spot

Hey all,

Please indicate interest in this. Also if you are NOT going then please let us know as it will give us a better indication of the percentages involved.
I won't be going myself.
Thanks. D.

As Clan Chief could you or one of the committee see if you could get in touch with Farrell's and see if they could get some prices or deals on a hotel in Glasgow. They must know where the team are staying and it will be the last game of the season.

With Clan members taveling from Galway, Dublin and myself from Drogheda, it would be difficult to arrange the travel but at least we should all try to stay in the same place. Also don't particularly want to end up booked into a Ranger's hotel. A Paddy in Green on the worng side of Glasgow !!!!!!


Another Connacht fan in Drogheda??? :woohoo: :woohoo:

i dont think that id be able to go to this due to moneys but as i said before, if were in the heineken or amlin next year we should have a poll early on in the season where we choice two games, that we could bring a group the size that went to toulouse to two places next season.
after the poll is done maybe the clan or someone would take it on them to ring hotels to get deals, best prices etc. when everything is planned then we could book if ourself hopefully most people staying in same hotel, transfer from airport, same flight over maybe a tour of the city etc

Not to mention UK based supporters who will make their own travel arrangements but might want to have the hotel option sorted...

Leighton wrote: Not that far in advance ConCows. It is best I think if people book flights independently. It's something of a trek by coach and Larne ferry and at €50 ex-Dublin by air you can hardly go wrong. I'm pretty sure the branch can ask for a ticket allocation to ensure we are in the same place.


Accomodation will be the issue, think the whole point of the exercise is that it will be a Clan outing a la Toulouse rather than just random groups in Glagow doing their own thing...

A big one nighter in Glasgae with maybe the squad hanging around for a couple as it's the last game...
