    Yes. No sense in giving this wonderful person any more attention and possibly getting our own into trouble.

    To try and get on topic:

    DB, what did they actually say was the problem, was it a case that sky wouldnt allow them to show it in a public place?

    Sky weren't going to let them show it for non-domestic purposes.

    That was it really and add the lack of rooms and you have yourself a huge problem.

    If its going to happen next year guys it really has to be more of a group effort. I was on my own for a long time and we could have at least known sooner than 30 hours before the events starts if we had more help.

    Hard luck DB, you put a lot of effort in for all the lads. Weird I just thought 5 minutes ago about how deserted the PW forum was going to be tomorrow night. A real shame for all of ye who were meeting up.

    Minute by minute commentary on how the Boardsies were falling one by one. And then DB's sudden, shocking heel turn at 3am before the Cena/Miz match :pac:

    I would have put somebody through a table by the end of the night so it was probably for the best that this was cancelled. FOR YE :pac:

    Hello! First time poster, long time troll (the good, quiet kind :p)

    I've been looking at this thread for weeks, hoping the event would be a go. It was great to read that everyone was enthusiastic about watching Mania as a group. After reading that it wouldn't go ahead I was disappointed for you guys.
    PW meet-up for Mania would have been epic. You'd be bored of watching it online on your own (at least I am anyway). I haven't watched it on a proper tv in years!! :O
    It is such a shame that technicalities got in the way. I would have loved to have been there, unfortunately I have a thesis presentation Monday morning so wouldn't have made it.

    I was really impressed by how everyone chipped in and made the effort to try make it happen. Well done to everyone (esp. DiabhalBeag) who had a hand in trying to organise it; ye should be proud.

    There's always next year anyway. Would be cool to watch Taker reached 20-0 (hopefully!!!)

    Hard luck guys.

    RL

    Its the only way to fly.

    In all seriousness, We should hopefully have garnered enough interest in the efforts to try and arrange this for next year, or maybe even SS? I heard thats on a bank holiday monday?

    Unlucky lads it's so hard to actually get people to commit to anything. Being cynical the fact that it involved wrestling and meeting people from the Internet meant people would be reluctant to push it too hard with their friends and wouldn't go out on a limb. Credit to those that did by the way. I was never going to be able to go but I was hoping ye'd get it up and running

    This pulling teeth to get a meet-up sorted is why I never entertain any American b!tching about having to pay $45-65 for a PPV! Try watching it until 4am!!

    Hmm....Do you think the IWW or DCW etc are meeting up to watch mania? I know there's some similar wrestling promotion doing a show and watching Mania afterwards in Scotland...

    I presume that people going to the Indy show in the afternoon could sort out something as I'm sure the majority would be watching Mania.

    Theres not one wrestling fan who wont be watching mania. Especially if they are a wrestler. Any who say they arent are liars.
