Big sides to visit Cov

[Ashdown]

Toulon, Bath and Leinster are all due to play Wasps at the Ricoh. If nothing else it will bring in a few quid for the Cities business again.

Heres to three heavy defeats for our insect overlords.....

Are Bath a big side, honestly i have no idea. I have heard of Leinster and Toulon (as Johnny played for them). Shows my limited knowledge on egg chasing...

I think they are a big side. They have at least 3 6ft plus forwards and most of them weigh at least 16 stone.

So not as big as the people in Huddersfield Giants??

Wasn't it only 22k when they played Leinster at the Ricoh last season?

Decent but I wouldn't call them big. No surprise that they are playing wasps at the Ricoh when they are in the same league .........

Toulon are the big money boys in Europe from the South of France and European champions, Bath have a following all across the Sth West of England and Leinster have a huge following from the Dublin area. It's not right but I would expect 3 capacity crowds and an influx of money bearing visitors to the City of Coventry. I just hope Cov Rugby can ensure they somehow benefit from all the hype that will follow.

Surely Ashdown was referencing the European group for next season?

I figured that, but I was pointing out the fact that they will play them at the Ricoh anyway.

Was it that low because people had to start paying for the tickets?
