Red Army face a Munster task

IF Munster fans thought the scramble for transport, tickets and accommodation for last year’s European Rugby Cup final in Cardiff was difficult, they ain’t seen nothing yet.

The resourcefulness of the Red Army will be tested more severely than ever before on their journeys around Europe after it was confirmed that Munster must travel to Llanelli for the knockout stages of this year’s competition.

Early indications from airlines and ferry companies suggest the usual large travelling contingent will be heading for south Wales on March 30 to see Declan Kidney’s men take on the Scarlets.
