Was some night !!! On account of only getting into Cardiff at 3.30pm, I missed most of the madness outside of O'Neills. Did arrive in time to try and recruit Bernard Brogan for a bit of junior football in London ! 
I liked the stadium - Was expecting it to be a bit like most of the other out-of-the-box stadia that have been built but was actually good. Atmosphere was great from our lot as as always the Welsh anthem was class. Did bump into a few people who I knew going to the game : Could be totally wrong but not sure they would be regulars at home games let along away games but had tickets in the away end ?!?!
Some craic back in the Live Lounge after - Wasn't quite Campus in Glasgow but was pretty good all the same. 

Great first day back.

Fell asleep at my desk only an hour ago Embarrassed

Also had a meeting with the owner & managing director @ 10 am DeadLOL
Why no wine??!

I didn't pick up one anyway. Stopped lookin around 3 on Monday for one, I was just starting to get annoyed. So once I resigned myself to the fact I was watching in the pub it was grand.

You should have told him later that the 1960's phoned with a message for him - they want their attitude back!

You certainly don't need them to play for Scotland.

Think that you would struggle to do that. 
At the CCS because the turnstiles are fiddly electronic things there is usually a steward right by the turnstiles on the outside and another watching several turnstiles on the inside.


Did exactly this and got in. Know of another fella who did the same too


doubled up and told the stewards we got seperated from 1 lad but we had his ticket . We both had match tickets so only one of ours was scanned and we asked the steward to pass the ticket out the big gate that wasn't scanned and he did it no problem.


2 of us got in no problem, just picked a random young lad and told him the craic, great shout to try this anyway, little to lose, everything to gain Clap

I was talking to a few people who did that. Genius
