With such a small fixture list (Only 4 home league games left?) and our income streams dimished by covid and mediocre crowds (On the back of poor performances) Isnt it high time the scarlets seriously focused on chasing up a lot more events at the parc to raise their revenues and profits? Have they got the right team in place to do this?
Theres infinitely more concerts in swansea (Liberty and singleton park) and most other comparable stadiums. So why not the parc? Have they really exhausted all possible options in the 14 years at the parc? What events are planned for the next few years?

Given the anniversary of beating NZ and our 150th anniversary there’s sweet fa being done for supporters only an expensive anniversary dinner. Nothing for normal fans. Can’t get things right off the pitch and on it.

No but you brought it up based on 4 home games with no consideration to what other commitments or community games might have been organised so we assumed you had a raft of amazing ideas......or is it just another stick to bet the club with??

| I was contemplating going just to see Babymetal supporting but £53 a ticket put me off.
I'm sure any metal purists reading will be tutting away at me admitting my appreciation for Babymetal

If you were there could have a decent head bang my intelligent friend.
My son in the RAF got me to listen to Sabaton...their music highlights the unknown soldiers and heroes of the second world war...to be honest its like listening to a history lesson with metal music...its superb...watch their videos....jeez they even did a video above where the Bizmark was sunk, their songs even let you know about less historic events. Songs like " the great war" "soldier of heaven" " the attack of the dead men" are true historical events, " prisoner 4859" who was waging his own war inside Auschwitz...all great stuff tbh.... so looking forward to it .
First time I will see Babymetal.
Seen every rock band going Monsters of rock at Donnington..seen all rocks groups on my motorbike since 1978...its a case of who I haven't seen.
Seen the best...I love rock and metal.

A lot of the above i wouldn't go to see but we do need to ask why the stadium isn't being used to it's full potential as that was one of the selling points and i'm not sure how many events have been at the parc since it opened but i'd hazards a guess you wouldn't need to take your socks off and for once you can't blame the WRU for the lack of effort from the parc it's like having a sidecar on a motorbike but making 2 journeys for 2 passengers in other words a waste of time.

Unfortunately a lot of us are of an age where our heroes are at a vulnerable age and more and more are going to pass sadly.
