Everyone wearing the red shirt of Wales in our hospitality facility had to put up with my overly confident pre match prediction of England smashing the Welsh yesterday! A chorus that was repeated by hosts joining me for the day, Peter Richards and Matt Perry.
Things were going according to plan in the first half and I felt the end result would be a lot more than I expected. I was bragging of an England grand slam in the making, sat next to my Sales Executive who happens to be welsh. I even threw a bet in the mix re grand slamming England. Luckily for me she refused the bet!
Suddenly, the switch was turned off. England's game completely deteriorated and at the same time Wales brilliantly succeeded where England had failed, by turning possession into points; scoring two well deserved tries.
Post match Simon Shaw, Lee Mears, Matt Stevens and Mark Regan popped into our facility - see photo gallery They were all too gutted by the result and couldn't explain where & how it all went wrong.
Third time lucky next year in Cardiff, I hope!
