Why not? It is one of the finest stadiums in the world and hosts a lot more than "just" rugby. O2 pay £6M a year for a tiny venue in concert terms. The Principality has hosted Taylor Swift and some massive acts recently. It is a legendary stadium and easily worth multiples of what they get now.

All I can hear is the despairing sobs of Welsh rugby fans.

After the autumn series, I think we'll all need something a lot stronger than Paracetamol. I don't think there will be anything in world strong enough to take the pain away without having an anaesthetist delivering it.

What a farce. URC hasn't got any spectators and he's saying that the TV revenue is rubbish too, so what is the point of it?

The WRU are absolutely slaughtering the game in Wales and completely missing the point of their job. What a terrible time to be a Welsh fan.

A brilliant analysis of the #RedRoses v #Canada at the #rwc2025 as per usual from @squidgerugby.bsky.social

A great call to arms for all of the other Rugby Unions around the world to step up and support their phenomenal teams as well.

They did it. After a world of pressure on their shoulders, the Red Roses are finally World Champions, overcoming Canada at a sold-out Twickenham. We dive into how England adapted their gameplan, nullified Canada, and saw the title home...

Mate, this is a fantastic video. Absolutely brilliant and I couldn't agree with your comments at the end about the growth of the game more if I tried. Well done for all your work over the last few weeks and enjoy the break. You've deserved it.

Excellent work here. This is significantly more useful than the abject proposals and "consultation" from the WRU.

I support the conclusions wholeheartedly.

The substance is a simple one. If all we ever do is criticise and shout, then your voice gets ignored. If you can work with people you have common ground with but don't agree fully, then there is hope.

If all people do is yell, we are opening the door for Farage and his goons to goose step through.

I have zero knowledge of you or your circumstances. In the same way you have no idea of mine.

What I do know is that my Grandmother still has the tattoos from Auschwitz on her arm when she was ripped away from her family by fascists. I don't want the same thing to happen to anyone.

No. I got annoyed because people are acting like complete dicks. What's your excuse?

You are making it very hard to be an ally to you personally. That's for certain. I have made no comment on any policy. I showed some mild frustration at the left yet again fighting amongst itself and you go off on a ranting tangent.

It is no wonder the right wins elections most of the time.

Can you see my surname?

Please be angry at the people who are doing whatever it is you are angry about. Shouting at an ally is about as pointless an activity as it can be.

I notice that you just insult people without knowing anything about them.

How pathetic.

Just listen to yourself. I have done nothing of the sort. Has all rationality gone and just been replaced by hatred?

This is as bad as trying to discuss anything with a Reform voter. It is just a long list of bile.

We are in such trouble politically in the UK.

I'm not a Labour member. I sure as shit won't be telling anyone who to vote for. I just know who I'll be voting against.

Oh get over yourself.

You expect a dissertation? You know precisely nothing about my views or me personally, but you feel happy to make very personal insults.

Social media really does bring out the worst in people.

I am the one who has been insulted, yelled at, sworn at and generally bullied simply because I made a comment about trying to work as a team and not default to hatred.

Yet I am the one acting like a child? Yeah. Whatever.

I am not here to defend him. Just ask that we don't just continually scream blue murder even when something positive is done.

I want us to act with balance rather than screaming bile at everything all the time.

It means not just taking potshots. It means recognising when something good has happened rather than just relentless negativity and criticism.

It means acting like adults rather than petulant school children.

I haven't made any points. I simply want us all to work together rather than yelling at eachother and dividing ourselves.

This thread proves why the left can never win anything. It prefers fighting amongst itself than actually doing anything useful.

I'll take "looking like an arse" rather than being an internet hardman and bullying shitebag hiding behind an anonymous log-in.

As for the last word, please. After you.

Only because you like it. Interesting that you like to use a gendered term as a smear.

How very chauvinist of you.

You can try and excuse Internet pile ons and bullying as OK if you like, but it really is simply shit behaviour.

I expect better from people who try to pretend they care about others yet then act like this.
