In spite of it being Round 2 of the Six Nations Tournament, Premiership Rugby still continues. That seems slightly crazy, especially for those teams with lots of players featuring for their country. And so 2 such teams, Saracens and Bath Rugby faced each other at Allianz Park. My journey was a different one to my … More Saracens v Bath Rugby – Event 15
With Premiership Rugby taking rest and the LV Cup making a return a trip to Saracens still beckoned as they welcomed Super Rugby team The Blue Bulls. I can feel myself going into match report mode but that’ll come later – so back into blog mode! My game day morning was spent waiting for carpet … More Saracens v Blue Bulls – Event 12
With Saracens playing in France I was in need of a rugby union fixture, so I booked myself a ticket to watch Wasps take on Leinster in the European Rugby Champions Cup game. I had no idea when I picked the game that it’d be the decider for the group! Result! Being a bit of … More Wasps v Leinster – Event 10
As I arrived at the Stoop last week I thought to myself – why aren’t I coming here again next week? Saracens were playing Munster at 1pm – Quins v Wasps started at 7:45pm that was a huge gap between the 2 games – it seemed a plan to do both! And so a ticket … More Harlequins v Wasps – Event 9
After a chilly afternoon watching my 1st live rugby league game of 2015 next up was a somewhat bigger affair with rather more at stake. The relabelled European Rugby Champions Cup, strangely sponsored by no other than Heineken would take me to 2 games in a day. The 1st was Saracens v Munster Rugby kicking … More Saracens v Munster Rugby – Event 8
A pleasantly good nights’ sleep in Gloucester saw me awake at stupid o’clock for a Saturday – but gave me time to write about my disappointing experience the night before. I need to make a note to self at this point – Buy breakfast the day before when staying in a hotel! Note taken on … More Harlequins v Leicester Tigers – Event 6
For some very strange reason a week ago I wasn’t going to the Gloucester v Saracens game; I sat with friends after the Saracens Storm game and listened to their plans, this got me thinking – why on earth am I not going?? Needless to say my ticket for the game was bought by 8am … More Gloucester Rugby v Saracens – Event 5
The 1st day back at work after the Christmas break is always a bit of a struggle, what a nasty shock when my alarm clock went off at 6am! Just nasty! Not so bad though when I had a rugby match to look forward to! Monday night is usually meeting night for me so I … More Saracens Storm v Newcastle Falcons A – Event 4
An evening in a Hotel, in this case the Holiday Inn Express, Filbert Way, Leicester, the one opposite the King Power Stadium, tends to mean dinner alone. The hotel don’t have a restaurant so I wandered round to the Steak & Grill Restaurant attached. And so, the lady eating alone in the evening scenario occurred, … More Leicester Tigers v Bath Rugby – Event 3
It will soon become plain that I am in fact a season ticket holder at Allianz Park – home of Saracens. Some very clever marketing saw that happen 6 years ago now; £10 to watch Saracens play Northampton Saints at Wembley was too good to miss for a sports fan. Then it was rude not … More Saracens v London Irish – Event 2
