    Great turn out, although I thought the atmosphere wasn't great.

    Don't know why but last year seemed to be better. The Seniors seemed to be a lot more muted and relaxed this year. I remember last year they were hanging out the bus, punching the air and really up for it. I guess most of them have seen it all at this stage, but with 3 in-a-row I was expecting something a bit more special.

    I guess the weather didn't help either. Oh and don't get me started on the quality of speeches (Compere, players and managers aside), surely they could've got guys with a bit more fire in their belly, to take up the mike.

    Did I hear correctly on the radio that thousands were turned away from the city due to the numbers who turned out?

    The weather was the real problem - everyone was cold and damp. Last year it had a sunny festival atmosphere. But we cant complain!!
