I idly thought yesterday about putting in for the ballot for some tickets for the rugby world cup (in England 2015). However, when I looked at the prices, I thought, just how much rugby has changed and the authorities are just taking the piss - even worse than the SSC think they can take the piss! There are a small number of 'almost' affordable tickets and a small number of cheap tickets for games that will barely 1/4 fill the stadia they are being played in:

I wont be joining their posh fest. Among the Scotland fans, it sadly has moved continually towards the upper end and will be mainly the rich spoon fed union jack waving No voting tory voting rugger bugger fans that will attend. I have been to plenty of Scotland rugby matches in the past and hate the snobbery shown in certain quarters. Will just get too angry these days to be amongst these snobby dickheads. Sod 'em.
Cheers
