Leinster fans ???

willyd50

Was just wondering how many Munster supporters will be cheering for Leinster saturday !??! Im from Leinster and supprted them in semi-final obviously not like those LUNSTER fans but if Munster had of won id have cheered for them because im IRISH !!!

So childish , just like the Munster fans who are selling their pre-booked final tickets to Leicester fans !! If thats not throwing your toys out of ur pram after being honestly and well beaten i dunno what is ...

What ye guys think ???

I've supported Munster on every occasion they've been to the final and I've no doubt 90% of Munster fans will be supporting Leinster. There will always be bandwagoners and eejits who wont, but you get the same from Leinster fans.

The main thing that has changed over the years I think is the very distinct identity the 2 teams have formed. Fans at provincial level are no longer Irish rugby fans in my experience, they're Munster fans supporting Leinster or vice versa. So I'd imagine there will be lots of Munster jerseys at the final who will be cheering on Leinster whereas maybe a few year ago they might have worn blue or, dare I say it, a Leinster jersey even.

I wouldn't wear a Munster jersey to a match if I'm being perfectly honest, but I'd still cheer for them if Leinster are out of the competition.

Hopefully they'll get behind us anyway and we can do a job for them and keep Leicester down to 2 trophies in the hunt for most sucsessful team in Europe

I'm a Munster fan through and through, but it'll be Allez le blu on Sat! Support your own and all that. It's great for Irish rugby, and as long as that cup comes home to Ireland...that's all that matters.

Btw ...dont think I could make myself wear a leinster jersey, but Ill wear my Ireland one and be waving a Leinster flag! :P

In every rugby team there are always supports who wouldnt support others, but in general...judging from the people I know going....Munster fans are fully behind Leinster to win.

I'm not going but if as in other years I had the trip booked I'd be heading there wearing my Munster Jersey but shouting for Leinster and would probably be as gutted for Leinster as any of their fans should they fail to bring home the cup.

It must just be all the Munster fans i know that would not cheer for Leinster so ......

Was at the game at Croker in my Munster jersey and was totally gutted when we lost. However, on any occassion that Leinster are playing in Europe (against anyone bar Munster) of course I hope they win, was on the edge of my seat for the Quins game. Will be wearing something navy and will be cheering on Leinster and hoping BOD lifts the cup after a gr8 season. Anyway the sooner Leinster win the Heineken Cup the sooner Munster can get around to winning it back off them Allez Les Bleus!!!

I'm a Munster fan - bought my tickets and booked my flights for the final months ago (yes I was one of the cocky ones!) but I am still going over to the game to shout for Leinster - flying out tonight!

Had a couple of spare tickets and offered them to Leinster fans that I knew but they said the flights were too dear to travel...hmmm.

With the state of Leinster's support (spare tickets, too dear to travel) they will need Munster supporting them to have any numbers....

Maby you are not aware there is a recession going on and people who could afford to go to matches last year,even a few weeks ago may not.Dueto wage cuts and job losses.Maby it has not arrived in Munster yet!!!
Anyway I hope everyone enjoys what we all hope will be a great rugby match.

Ive been a Munster supporter for a long time and have always supported Leinster when they play(except against Munster). But Im very surprised at the apparent lack of support Leinster will have in Edinburgh. Tickets are everywhere and Leinster fans don't seem to want them. I have tickets and accomadation going spare (at cost) and still cant shift them.

It might be that they tried to sell their tickets to Leinster supporters first but finding it hard to shift them they went and offered them to Leicester so as not to see them go to waste.
I myself have tried to sell 3 tickets at cost on the LeinsterFan site for the last few weeks with no luck. So last night I handed them over to a Munster mate that is going over so as to at least have them in the right city...
That might help them shift...

I hope that the cup comes back to Ireland.

Sorry, do you have any statistics for this or are you just trying to start another retarded pissing contest? It's all very well to goad Leinster supporters who can't travel to Edinburgh but, you know, some of us need to pay rent and put food on the fvcking table. There's a recession on. Some of us are feeling it a lot worse than others but I can guarantee you that there won't be many as Munster supporters travelling to Paris this time next year should they make it to the final again. By then the full extent of the damage done to this economy will be well known.

Alot of munster fans got final tickets and accomadation off leicester supporters in 06 and 08
So no, munster fans kinda owe leicester one.
Munster fans are being honest and loyal by repaying the help recived from leicester

So if anything, you complaining about it is throwing your toys out of the pram.
You obviusly dont understand the pride, honesty and good sportsmanship of rugby
