      First you dealt in logic, now it's truth! Lift your game or it's a card!

          Don't forget there's a yellow card for any display of wit.

            In fact we can give you a yellow or red card when we want.

              We can too. That's what's nice about a democracy - we can all be equally fascist together.

              • I am back. I am extremely tired. And that was good old British trains making me three hours late home last night.

                It was a poor game but the result will do nicely.

                Stade de Mediteranean is clearly a soccer stade used by the rugby club?

                And I have re-discovered my love of southern France and the Catalan region - not to mention vin rouge and vin blanc.

                Catch up with you later gentlemen.

                    Welcome home Havak, Finbar was missing you, he is not himself when you are not here.

                    A thousand kilometers for a poor game, Rugby can sometimes be very frustrating.

                    Stade de Mediteranean is clearly a soccer stade used by the rugby club?
                    No the Stade de la Méditerrannée is a Rugby stadium built for the Association Sportive Béziers when it was the prevailing club in France. I have been here once for a semi-final between the Stade Toulousain and the Stade Français (lost by the Stade Toulousain after a very poor game). The Stade is pretty but ill conceived, the weather in the area is always windy and the Stadium seems to amplify the wind rather than protect from it.

                    And I have re-discovered my love of southern France and the Catalan region - not to mention vin rouge and vin blanc.
                    Though Catalonia is a part of the area known as the Languedoc-Roussillon, never tell a Biterrois he is a Catalan if you don't want to have a rifle under your nose in a matter of seconds, the difference between the Catalan and the Biterrois is mainly that the second one will probably not shoot.

                    The area was once known as the Narbonnaise and was one of the richest part of the Roman Empire.

                    • Welcome home Havak, Finbar was missing you, he is not himself when you are not here
                      Merci Monsieur.

                      Finbar doesn’t seem happy with my having been to La France.

                      The Stade is pretty but ill conceived, the weather in the area is always windy and the Stadium seems to amplify the wind rather than protect from it.
                      I got the name incorrect because I was tired. Honestly.

                      You are right – it looks impressive but the ground is badly exposed to the elements.

                      Monsieur Tournaire received some very rough treatment - I suspect his Toulouse background caused it?

                      never tell a Biterrois he is a Catalan if you don't want to have a rifle under your nose in a matter of seconds
                      I am always very well behaved when abroad.

                      I flew out on the same plane as the Tigers squad incidentally which was rather nice.

                        Jealousy, that's all !

                        My reply was not meant to point at this.

                        You are right – it looks impressive but the ground is badly exposed to the elements.
                        Most of the teams have troubles with their kicks when they play in this Stadium.

                        Old habits are difficult to chase...

                        I am always very well behaved when abroad.
                        You are then behaving more appropriately than most of the french tourists abroad.

                        I flew out on the same plane as the Tigers squad incidentally which was rather nice.
                        Have you been lucky or was it prepared ahead ?

                        • Pure luck.

                          Nice lads on the whole. Tug Boat Kafer as well.

                          • Sounds like you had fun, even if the game wasn't up to your expectations. Welcome back Havak.

                              Rugby players are almost always kind personnas... outside of the field.
