Logically Most of the Lions squad should be Irish or English - consistently the best 2 teams - however with the coach being the ex-Wales coach they should get a good few in the squad.

Finding it difficult to make any sense of your post.

Well from what I can interpret the Sunday Times experts have selected a team of forty-five players so my money would be on that side to beat everyone!

Has anyone managed to get a refund of their tickets?

If so where did they purchase the ticket from.

I am getting fed-up being told 'we invite you to be patient' some 7 months after the original date of the game.

I have just seen confirmation that all outstanding 6 Nations games will be played without a crowd.

As such I have emailed my ticket supplier asking for an immediate refund.

No crowd at all at the moment, and as Italy is now showing (small) infection increases again very unlikely I should think

Well the England game in Rome has been re-scheduled for late October - does anyone know what size crowd if any will be able to attend?

Written in today's papers that government are thinking of restricting all mass gatherings to 500 people.  Not sure if this would be Country wide or just in certain areas.  Only 1 confirmed case in Cornwall at the moment.

Thanks everyone.  Couple of the blokes I was going with employers have added self isolation restrictions greater than gov advice so its a no goer for them, meaning we have decided not to go.  Lost flights, one night hotel, train and airport parking unless we there are greater restrictions placed between now and next Thursday.

Lesson in future is pay that bit more for flexible/cancellable tickets in the future!

Now just hoping Mhazelnutille in May not similarly afflicted.Cry

I booked my flights last April, hotel and tickets in June. Unfortunately my wife and the other couple who were due to go with us, all work in a Care home for people with disabilities so didn't wish to take the chance of passing anything on to vulnerable unfortunate people. I have tried KLM, the hotel direct and via the hotel booking company today. I haven't bothered with the ticket refund as a postponement they will still be valid whenever it is played. So far to date to no avail as I've no doubt they have thousands of people in the same position and we'll be well down the pecking order. As a last resort I have tried also the credit card company in the hope that I'll be able to claim for a refund under Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act on my credit card. Worth a try!
As previously stated we all need the FCO to say it's a no go then we can claim on our travel insurance 

Further update I have rung the travel insurance who have registered my claim but have said must try Credit card company 1st. KLM have offered me a voucher valid for a year to pay only difference in fare for rearranging flight. Hotel have offered to allow rebooking up to 30/4. I have contacted CC company who. have registered also claim but atm no one wants to put their hand and pay out. 
My Advice is get claims in with everybody before it's too late. I'm going to other CC company about tickets. Will have to see how it goes from there.

Not sure when they will get to reschedule these games as well as Ireland v Italy, back in 2001 Ireland had to complete the games in September and October when there was room to put them in!


I wouldn't be surprised if they games ended up in the Autumn..

Government needs to pull its finger out and ban travel to Italy, then hopefully most can get their money back on insurance.

Ireland offered refunds to those with match tickets - hopefully Italy will do the same.

If France do enough in the last two games to be champions anyway I wonder if they will not bother to re-arranged the cancelled games? They could always pay some sort of compensation to Italy and Ireland.

The airlines are cancelling a lot of flights later in the month - pure economics, as nobody is booking flights to places like Italy, nothing to do with passenger welfare.
