Think you can bet on a December game... weekend of 8th or 15th.

Exeter not allowed to play on Friday nights. Ground v close to M5 motorway, traffic bad enough without a game on. Can get a lot of Sunday games.

Got return flights for the Glasgow game out early sat morning back sun afternoon for 124 euros Aerlingus excellent value !. Also picked up an early aerlingus flight to Bristol on the Sat of the Exeter game for 29 euros wonder if there will be a late extra flight put on owing to the late kick off on Sunday back from Bristol ?.

Got the same flights for Glasgow with Ryanair for 78. I'd say you'd get nothing close to that now the fixtures are out.
Can I raise a practical question at this point? Are we gonna do "Stonehenge" tomorrow?

Got these flights this morning after the fixtures had been released seems really good value !. Trying to get back to Dublin late Sunday night or early Monday morning from the Exeter game if anyone has any bright ideas ?.

Exeter to Dublin Sunday Night highly unlikely, except on the team charter. Quick look at GB Rail Timetable will get you to London/Birmingham before midnight after leaving Exeter St Davids after 8:30pm. Early flights from LHR, LGW, LCY, BHX. Cheap fares on trains available from 12 weeks of travel.

Thanks Hornet those seem to be the options unless Ryanair / Aerlingus put on an extra flight from Exeter or Bristol . Remember it took a while to get out of the ground the last time. Looks like it's Monday so !.

For what of a better place to pose this question can STHs still add/buy additional seats (together) for their group so to speak for LR games?
