[QUOTE="valley commando, post: 773597, member: 72217"] I'm glad there are others who feel this way especially from sides we have played in the BIC, it was massive for us playing the likes of you guys, Worcester, the Pirates, Doncaster, The Bees etc, obviously you had bigger fish to fry in your respective league, but it meant a hell of lot to some of the clubs in Wales notably, Ebbw, Keys and us. Ponty fans love away games treating them as mini tours, pre region we had the largest volume of away fans in Wales, more recently in the 1st year of the BIC we went to Scotland to play Ayr and took more fans than the regions take to Scotland. Several 100 fans stayed in Worcester all weekend last season and its only a 2 hour drive from Worcester to Ponty, maybe the extra few bob we put into the local economy was the reason Worcester fans urged their club to play a pre season against us, but I suspect it was down to the atmosphere created by 2 decent sets of fans.
