Ospreys Move Match to the Millennium due to Swans Vs Middlesbrough Switch 12:48 - Feb 28 with 6046 viewsjackharris

Due to European Rugby insistence that the Ospreys match is to played on Sunday 2nd of April at 5.45pm, the match has been moved to the Principality Stadium.

Very proud to be voted Planet Swans Poster of the Year 2017 by my fellow posters. Especially on a site that nearly had 20 million impressions last year.

It'll suit the French side. Should be played at Llynfi Road.

Even more to do with the fact that the t.v. deal insisted it was on 5.45 on Sunday.
Both the Swans and the Stadium company were willing for the liberty to be used on either Thursday or Friday.


I'm told the Ospreys asked the European Challenge Cup organisers to change it to the Thursday - they wouldn't

Odd that one of the biggest club sides in our National Sport gets a match in a big European competition forcibly moved on just so a mere fooball team can play a league game against Middlesbrough.

Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.

Not odd. Premier League football gets stadium priority at this and any other stadium in the country that happens to share with rugby.

There's a fair chance Ospreys may get a decent crowd for that. Considering the catchment area stretches as far as Bridgend and includes Maesteg etc these places have better rail links to Cardiff. The city of Cardiff itself is more rugby than football as well so many will probably turn up on the day for the sake of it.

This is down to the funding/grant (that was provided by the FA?) to build the stadium in the first place.

The Pl & EFL demand that football matches take priority.

The Dragons were scheduled to play at home on the last day of their season but it clashes with a home fixture for Newport County.

Despite the Dragons owning Rodney Parade, they have to play elsewhere.

And even if they didn't, the Ospreys would still have to move.

Does football take priority due to more policing needed?

Ever since my son was... never conceived, because I've never had consensual sex without money involved... I've always kind of looked at you as... a thing, that I could live next to... in accordance with state laws.

There is nothing wrong with supporting both teams, I hope to be at both matches that day.

Incidentally does anyone know when the first Swans match to completely sell out at the liberty was?

I looked on Wiki under Liberty stadium and the first capacity attendance was for the Ospreys.

No segregation in rugby.

Not sure why the ospreys having no segregation, would have any bearing on the Swans selling every available seat for a game.

We sell out pretty much every game now, my question was when was the first time we did it?

I'm guessing it was in the championship.

Wolves were the first to sell out the away end, I doubt we sold the home seats out though

Fairly certain the Forest play off was a sell out.

We haven't sold tomorrow out yet.

I have a feeling that the Leeds match in 2007 was a sell out. About 19,000 and I think that was our maximum in those days due to segregation.

First Swans match to sell out was the first evening game against Yeovil in 2005 I think. Certainly a 19,200 crowd there which was the initial capacity minus segregation wasn't it?
