With the ongoing cold weather, it may be worth contacting the home club if you have any doubt about your fixture going ahead. For those of you heading to Dublin to watch the Ireland v England match, enjoy and let’s hope that there are no controversial refereeing decisions. For our members, please feel free to discuss on the closed Facebook forum. From Monday, there will be an opportunity to discuss a clip from a recent match so you can all look forward to that!
