The stadium may change, but the dream will remain the same!

I've always looked down on East Wales.
I think a lot of them, deep down, are quite envious of West Wales in many ways. They see everyone from west of the Loughor as part of a big clique that they are not welcome in. I quite like that.

I can vouch for this. Mate of mine said he was "off to the beach in West Wales" last summer. When I asked him where, he said "Pothcawl". Happens in most countries though. |

They've always looked down on West Wales in the East. They think Bridgend is West Wales in Cardiff. This is not a specific thing to rugby but to life in general. I'm sure some of the Cardiff based Scarlets on here would echo my view on this. I thought Mark Davies came over well on the programme. He looks a very stable measured individual.

One of my mates is an English football fan but was bored and watched the documentary! He wants to come down and see a Scarlets game now! He was impressed with our stadium too

Let them get on with it, why I don't post anymore on these 'other forums'. Jealous is probably the correct word to be honest, and even though they'd cut their right arms off before admitting it, it is pretty obvious looking in from the outside.
I thought the series was informative, and more should be shown on the box from all of the regions to be honest. That way, we can all get a good honest insight to how all of the regions are run as professional businesses. Maybe then, more people will understand the day to day runnings of professional rugby, instead of making up their own minds on a foundation of sand.
Let me put it this way, if the Blues, O's and Drags did something similar, I would most certainly watch it and support it, and not take the piss. We're all supposed to be working together for the better of Welsh rugby, not taking the piss or having a dig at the first opportunity. Edited by Mrfwon - 14 February 2014 at 10:46am |

On one forum for sports in general, the views coming form people outside of the region have been pretty positive. People's opinion of us being run by armatures with no clue seem to be waning and people are starting to accept that we are running a professional business that is doing its damnedest to survive.

For them to watch the series and comment on it then surely that just means they are jealous of all the publicity our club has had and how professionally run it is compared to their crappy club

Taking the piss really, nothing worth reading to be honest.

I think to even things up Ponty should get a documentary if one of those rubbish sky channels have a couple of quid to spare.
It seems popular nowadays to show how these chavs survive at the moment. My you they would need a red button so decent folk can understand there grunting plus there very difficult to learn club song. Could be like that show about Brum just more down market. |

To be a Scarlet is as good as it gets
