Indeed - but the Scarlets went on a 3-month unbeaten run between 15 October and 16 January, unless you count the 28-0 defeat in the 'match that never was'! Wink

Premiership football crowds are down on average by 20-25%.

Having said that I can assure all that the players are super excited to have any crowd there...and a 7-8k crowd would actually be a great outcome in my view.



I am envious of those who will be able to attend, and hope that everyone who is there has a fantastic time.

Ymlaen, Scarlets!

We can’t qualify for anything now can we? If Cardiff have a 0-28 win awarded against Toulouse

The way our injury list is heading we'll be lucky to field a team in the URC let alone play in Europe.🤕🤕

Its unlikely but a 5 point win by 31 points difference gets us above Cardiff. Of course a win of any sort should get us into the Challenge Cup knock out stages.

We might be able to overtake one of Stade/Castres. We won't catch Wasps PD unless Munster hammer them. 
Challenge cup at best.

If we don't get into a KO fixture, we can play the postponed Dragons home game in April instead!

I think you both need to re-look. We can pass all 3 if we get a 5 point win. Stade play at home to Connacht & have 2 points currently. Castres play away to Harlequins & have 3 points. Wasps are away to Munster & have 6 points so by my calculations it is still mathematically possible as is passing Cardiff, unlikely but possible.

Cardiff result has all but certainly taken 8th off the table. Win and challenge cup is very like. Castres not likely to beat quins. 
For the losers now, will be later to win.

So if Wasps, Castres, Stade and us all lose (all quite feasible), Cardiff are in the last 16 - hysterical

I haven't shifted any £5 tickets to friends/family which is unusual. I literally can't give them away!!

Covid doesn't help, for sure. I certainly wouldn't judge anyone who was still worried about their own health.

For once I can make the train times from Hwest, so I'll have a few pints!

Oddly we have taken everyone we can. If people are still scared of Covid, I doubt they will ever come back imho

Nothing to do with Covid. Glad you've shifted a few!

Of course if we beat Bristol by a margin of 31 points or more and score 4 tries, we overtake Cardiff Big smile

   Totally agree Nigel . We have so many players who go from one injury to another . The worry for me, many are quite young .
     When making new signings there injury history , needs to be looked into in great detail.

The 28-0 win for Cardiff has been confirmed.

Toulouse intend to appeal, but doubt anything can be done to change the 'result' at such short notice, unless they can change it retrospectively - we didn't get any joy with that.
