Kingsholm for the Rugby

Relates to Peregrinations

I finally made my first trip, in 26 years of living in the area, to Kingsholm last night to watch the Cherry and Whites! The Wizard had acquired seats in the grandstand from his parents who had decided to trade their season tickets for the warmth of Sky Sports. Despite a well contested match in which Gloucester maintained considerable possesion, the Wasps stronger defense and penetrating attack gave them a 27 - 17 victory. The atmosphere was electrifying in the sold out 13,000 seat stadium, with the roar from The Shed making Dallaglio, Dawson, Greening, Shaw and co less than welcome.

Almost made me want to pick up a rugby ball again…!?
