Hi. I've never been to The Sportsground before. There are standing tickets available for the College Rd Terrace and Bohermore Terrace. Is one better than the other and do you use the main entrance on College Road for both or can you go in a different way for the Bohermore Terrace?
Thank you.

Do you prefer rain hitting you in the face or the back of the head?

Up the back of the Bohermore terrace for me - proximity to the big screen being the deciding factor.

For a change no rain in Galway so hopefully no rain in either direction tonight!
Thanks very much.

The college road side enter through the main stand entrance and bohermore side enter through the clan entrance a couple of feet down towards the g hotel from the main entrance. No real difference betweenness both. Although the screen is behind you on the bohermore side

Perfect. Thank you for that.

You enter college road terrace from the main stand side while you enter clan stand side if you have a bohermore ticket.

Thank you.

Surely you can call it Bundeephobia?

A light breeze would put Henshaw out for months.

Knowing ye lads, that's not metaphorical

Something tells me connacht will do it again and turn us over in the sports ground.

I'm on connacht +4 @evens and win @13/8.

In saying that, I've probably just put a hex on them

Injury declared late but 2 hours before the game, so before warn-up, I'm confident it could be mainly precaution for a light back injury, and we'll see him next week. + confident about Kerins too!
