    I am a Rugby Union fan Chelsea and try to get to a few internationals. I am trying to get out of a commitment on that date. Are the tickets still going? Cheers LT

    What a brilliant generous offer.
    I like going to the occasional international game and already have tickets for the Tonga game.
    Would love to be involved if you have any future offers.
    Cheers

    Not freebies but ..... extra tickets have been released to Deb Holders for England Rugby 6 Nations games both Home & Away. All around £100each. Not on sale to the general public, so happy to get them for you.

    Once again a nice offer <ok>

    Off on a bit of a tangent but related subject, was talking to someone outside the UK about where I am from and rugby cropped up in the conversation, although he was a fan and player of union he knew of FC and Rovers. I mentioned that in general rugby league is northern and union southern, he stumped me by asking which is the nearest Premiership club to Hull. Any idea?

    Cracking question.

    Is this accurate?

    I would be happy if we were getting the same crowds as the Tigers do in Leicester.

    If we define "Hull" as the midpoint between the MKM Stadium (which is where the rugby league team Hull FC plays) and Craven Park (which is where the rugby league team Hull KR plays), then "Hull" is half way down Brazil Street off Holderness Road - which, incidentally, is where ex-Hull City player Ken Smales lived when he was a lad.

    From there, as the crow flies, using Google, the distances to the Gallagher Premiership Rugby sides' stadiums are:

    Leicester Tigers 84.82 miles
    Saracens 148.37 miles
    Northampton Saints 107.34 miles
    Harlequins 158.89 miles
    Exeter Chiefs**
    Gloucester 152.68 miles
    London Irish 156.11 miles
    Newcastle Falcons 103.24 miles
    Wasps***
    Worcester Warriors 130.93 miles
    Sale Sharks 86.60 miles
    Bristol Bears**
    Bath**

    The bits in brackets are for the people who spend whole days posting about rugby league, as a demonstration of how little they care about rugby league.

    ** ****ing miles away, forget it.
    *** not even the name of a real team, surely. Anyway, it's 102.39 miles.

    Is that the not real team whose stadium holds 7,000 more than the MKM?

    Of course Ken Smales was best known for his exploits for Bridlington Town. For some of us, anyway.

    Not that they need it, they're averaging about 9,000.
