Fair play to England, big win. As a Wales supporter it’s bittersweet that England knock out a team we haven’t beaten since 1958 in favour of a team we have beaten twice this year already but on the flip side they need to beat SA and England’s defence looked solid AF (bar a try from a long lineout- wtf?!). Should have been by more as I thought England were hard done by with that try dis-allowed for obstruction, looked like NZ tracked the wrong man to me. Impressive stuff.

What an amazing performance by England. Surely an ENGLAND chant at today's game is well in order. ENGLAND ENGLAND ENGLAND ENGLAND ENGLAND ENGLAND ENGLAND ENGLAND ENGLAND Lots of similarities between this England team and BRFC. We're don't pass it forward, either.

There is a lesson we can take from England, which is to to hit them hard from the start and take our chances. Dithering around waiting to see what the opposition have got, hands the initiative over.

Not sure about that, NZ looked bloated on past success, like they only knew they were in a game until the start of the second half. League football is massively different because from the first whistle everyone knows they can beat anyone else. In other words it’s comparing apples and oranges comparing a rugby side that plays what, less than 10 games in a typical year and wins almost all vs a football team that plays 46 games in a season and will undoubtedly lose some because of weight of numbers.

And they’ll dust themselves down and go again next week. Honest bunch of lads who worked their socks off.

You’ve just reminded me to check where Walsall are, wish I hadn’t bothered. Poor old DC seems to have lost his spark and his knack of getting results against the odds

Bet a few pubs are making a mint! Only the ones who have a licence for early opening.

You really are the most completely ignorant, stupid, bell in the history of the world...which is the greatest understatement in the history of the universe. Uh............it was a joke! Ok...then so was my response.

What I do know is that it will be extremely difficult to find a Welshman at work today. Normally you can't shut them up, and if they've won a rugby match they're unbearable!

Have to say on rare occasions I have popped into the club shop there have been seminars etc taking place at the ground. No doubt others might be able to delve deeper into club accounts to find info about non match day income. I've seen Motorcycle CBT training down the bottom of the car park too and what looked to be a filming crew set up last season with cabins everywhere. Cognitive behavioural therapy eh. Poor motorcyclists

A lot of pubs have longer hours anyway. Not sure how hard and how costly it is to be honest.

How can anyone guarantee something like that? Pretty unreasonable question, really. Apart from saying that if there is no alcohol licence, the attendance will be zero. Anyway, it's too late. The club needed to apply at least 5 working days in advance for the princely sum of £21......

We did open for England nations league game. Expect we will open for the Euros next season. Don't think it's worth trying to get a change of licence for one rugby game though.
