Got to wish him luck though. I know people felt let down by him, but he gave us so much magic, and you could see why he wanted out.

I thought it was his best game for ages.
He has gone so far down the route of favouring the attackers these past few years, and I have always felt he was the number one victim of the All Black cloak of invisibility.
Credit where it is due, he allowed defending teams to compete on Sat.
He has never been a bad ref, but as I have often said elsewhere, he could knife the mascot and by next week it would be forgotten by the media who seem to build up refs the way they do players.

Well, the Club, the players and the supporters would all welcome Kurtley back with open arms. Fingers crossed.
How much broken glass do I need to crawl over to get him back?
The ultimate WLR replacement...

Hello all. I am Mark.
As suggested by my handle, I live and work in west wales, and can normally be found in Scarlet-land, where I work for a rather successful independent school, teaching Chemistry and doing a bit of soccer on the side at lunch, having also taught bits of maths, PSE etc. over the years. I am also Health and Safety officer for the school.
I am from East Essex originally, and moved down here for Uni from state grammar,  where I studied for a Bsc, then Msc, then Ph.D, before grabbing a PGCE on the way out.
I first started supporting Wasps back in the mid-late 1990s. I used to do about 6-8 home games a season at AP, with 3-4 away games, plus soccer and England HQ games, but that was prior to my daughter being born in 2010. Nowadays 3-4 matches a year at home is the max, with 2-3 away depending- Bristol, Bath, Worcester, Sale and Glaws are where you are most likely to find me in  terms of away games, whilst at home I rarely sit in the same seat twice.
 I don't drive, but am fortunate that tend to go to matches with my Dad, who does, meaning I can train along the M4 and meet him from Essex if needed. He also pays for the tickets, so that makes him double hero. My daughter now accompanies us to some matches, whilst I have even dragged my Cardiff supporting wife along a couple of times. England Wales matches in my house are not always fun :-[

Hello all and good morning all.
I have never posted on this site, although I notice a large number of familiar names from DWs. Prior to DWs I was one of the interruptions from tumbleweeds on the official board back in the AP days.
I guess this is where the cool kids hang out? Or at least those who dislike reading "this site is awaiting update"
I shall now fill in the "who are you thread?", for those interested.
