Obviously the Ospreys think we are, £15 to go to listen to three men I wouldn't cross the street to talk to, I can go to watch the team play for less!!!

The Ospreys Supporters Club are proud to present an evening with Scott Johnson and Andrew Hore on the 15th July at the Liberty Stadium.
This is a fantastic opportunity to hear what the future holds for the Ospreys. There will also be a Q&A session, so if you have some burning questions that you have always wanted to ask, here is the opportunity.
On top of that, we have Rick O'Shea appearing, who will be providing some thoughts and stories on the game in Wales.

Finally, there is a high quality buffet and a young artist will be exhibiting her work.

Price is £15 per ticket, available from the Liberty Stadium ticket office, cash and cheques only please.

Kick off is at 7.30pm

Seems very reasonable. Don't see problem.

Depends - are you allowed to ask any questions you like? I'd have thought it could be worth £15 to tell them what you really think of how they run the Ospreys

The buffet costs £15.

Would anyone PAY to hear that three?

I don't think that's a bad deal at all.

We'd have done something similar last season in Edinburgh but the security costs of ensuring Moffatt and McKie weren't beaten up would have far outweighed the profits from the venture.

Depends how good the buffet is. As a bloke scottJohnson is an entertaining aimiable individual with some interesting views on rugby. Andrew hire is a jumped up conditioning coach.

The blues are doing a similar evening with dai young and OJ Simpson. They're calling it "getting away with murder"! There will be as many peters pies as you can eat and dai will do a stand up routine on his tactics and he'll also be showing us how he hypnotised the welsh press. Theee will also be a drag routine from Chris czekaj. he'll just be modelling the pink strip!
Tickets £22 or just hang around the ground long enough and you'll be handed a free one.
Paul Tito will be dressed as a clown and Bradley Davies will be on the door!

How much would it cost to get Rick O'Shea to stay away?

I'm personally not going to attend, but I don't see any problem in the organisers trying to recoup their costs for holding the event. The buffet certainly isn't free and neither is the cost of the venue.
I think it's a good way of having a clear the air talks between the more hardcore Ospreys fans and the coaching management.
It also gives fans a chance to discuss certain issues they have with the coaching team, their selections and their methods. At least the coaches are honest and brave enough to go out and speak to them as well, they could so easily hide away after a dissapointing season, yet they are prepared to come and see the people on the terraces who are so obviously frustrated at our season.

There always seems to be a lot of negativity towards Rick O'Shea, I wish I knew what he'd done. I find him very entertaining on Scrum V and he always comes across as one of the boys which in my mind is far better than some greased up smart bum using all the cooporate psyco-babble that I find frankly insulting. He's a fun guy who loves rugby and makes things interesting. To me he''s a guy I could easily make friends with and enjoy a beer and a chat about rugby down the pub, though few people seem to feel the same way as me.

£15 for a buffet sounds a fair price to me.


If you dont want to hear them 3, put some ear plugs in.
