Its on sky sports 2 live at 2 PM....and the Rose & Crown in the village next to brandon is showing it (I rang the landlord and told him to expect a crowd of us) They have just got a new big screen as well.

I know this pub as i used to live in wolston. Its a good drinking pub, typical local village pub.

Wolston is only 15 mins walk from Brandon hall hotel so we should be ok for getting there and back.

The pub is on the main street in wolston....you can't miss it....but we might miss the hotel on the way back depending how we all are...lol

The details of the pub are
Rose & Crown
Main St, Wolston, Coventry, West Midlands CV8 3HJ
Tel: 024 7654 1248

The Pre match starts at 2PM

See you all there

I think it will be a real shame if some of you disappear to another venue, it will dilute the event.

Not as much of a shame as missing the rugby.

Some people say rugby's a matter of life and death. It's not.





It's much more important...

Seeing as the Rugby is on at 2PM and the night time drinks dont start till 7PM, I think we will have plenty of time to make it to the event....plus it gives us 5 hours to , , , , and still have time to get in to my

Damn.....According to the Tickets it says Pre drinks at 7PM and sit down for food at 7:45PM....Anyway the rugby will be over by 4pm...so we should have enough time to get back to the hotel drunk....and get more drunk....J/K

The lovely Georgina is correct fellas .... the accepted start time is 2pm ... apart from last year when it was 3, because it took us an hour to find someone and drag them out of some backroom and into the bar to open it
