Ospreys building up for the ‘Blackout’

HAVING been brought down a peg or two at Thomond Park, the Ospreys hope Liberty Stadium can be equally as hostile to Munster for this weekend’s Heineken Cup tie.

The Welsh region have launched a ‘Blackout’ campaign to drum-up as much local support as possible for tomorrow’s crucial tie in Swansea.

Though the Liberty Stadium may not have the same kudos as Munster’s legendary home in Limerick, the Ospreys are notoriously tough to beat there, having lost just once, to Leicester’s injury-time try in 2005, in the stadium’s five-year history.
