I'll reply to whichever threads I like.
The question was asked is anyone going to the RWC, I gave my answer but also stated that I would probably watch the matches - whats your problem?

I will take that ticket off you if you don't want it. If Ireland win the pool France / Argentina v NZ will be a great game either way. I am going over  to the France & Argentina games.
