Hi Guy's,
I was wondering if there was any bus being organised for going to thomand park for last match at the end of next month and what section do connacht supporters usually head for. Any info would be great.
Thanks,
Pauline

The Clan committee are in the process of Organising a trip to Thomond Park for the Munster match. Official announcement should be in the next week.

I can't remember where I heard it, but there was some talk of the time of this fixture potentially moving, to stop any team having an advantage over another in terms of what is required to get into a playoff position etc. Seems like they should have thought of that before announcing the time. Did anyone else hear the same?

I heard that alright. Glasgow are only a point or two away from being mathematically uncatchable; Ospreys are almost as far behind us in the rear-view mirror, and we play Munster, so it some down to Cardiff - if 3rd place is up for grabs on the last day either their game or ours will have to move.

Would be more likely our one since there is a double header in Cardiff.
Hopefully we can put it to bed before then by winning the next two and getting a helping hand from the neighbours ...

Neutral ground, Cusack Park, Ennis, GAA ground, don't know how possible it would be...

Connachta, unless I'm being thick here the fixture doesn't physically have to move(why would it??) the kick off time may need to change.

Oh I dreamt Pro14 would have considered Cardiff would have been too favoured by Principalty/Millenium Stadium double Judgement day... And offered Connacht the same "neutral" venue vs Munster.
Dream. I just want us in Champions Cup, I could have delirium to reach it

That's what I meant, yeah...

They may still need to schedule the Glasgow and Munster games at the same time as they will likely be battling for top spot, so could end up with all 3 at the same time.
It's odd that they scheduled Ulster/Leinster at the same time as Cardiff/Ospreys as they could never have affected each other (except maybe for home advantage in the seventh place playoff).
