"Its called a try not a touchdown.
See, now this is the sort of faux pas I am trying to avoid.
5 points for a try
2 for a conversion
3 for a penalty
What's a penalty?"If one side do something naughty and their opposing team are given a kick at goal. It starts with a scrum, which is supported by the big lumps called props. The ball is chucked in and each side try to get it out of the scrum to their players. "Collapsing the scrum" is an offence. Once a team has possession of the ball they aim to get it down the field pass the line the goal stands on and place it on the ground. Successfully doing so is called a try and gives the scoring team the chance to try for a conversion by kicking at the goal. When a player has the ball the opposing team will tackle him for it. Players aim to pass the ball before they are tackled and lose it. They are only allowed to pass the ball to a team mate behind them, not ahead of them. If the ball goes off the field, it's chucked back on at the point it went off and the teams line up and try to catch it - called a line out. | |||

"I suspect the comment about Touchdowns was a wind-up. I wouldn't worry about knowing anything about the game. People will be ok with that. Besides, at big international games these days, most of the crowd don't have much of a clue what's going on - they're more interested in getting in their pink cowboy hat clad mugs on the big screen, downing beers etc. A Heineken Cup game will be better for that. Ulster fans can be pretty "one-eyed" mind! Things ain't what they used to be blah, blah, blah "One eyed? As I am going to be in Belfast I assume I am obliged to support Ulster for this game. | |||

"I'm off to Belfast next weekend to see Ulster v Montpellier Heinken Cup game. What do I need to know so that I don't look and sound too stupid? seriously.... cheer for the team in white... abuse the frenchies without swearing... stay silent at kicks.... and sing "stand up for the ulstermen" a lot" Is that what SUFTUM means? I had a message that I didn't understand. Thanks, Fabio. | |||

"You don't have to support them, but the majority of the crowd will be. You might get a little banter if you support Montpelier, but it should be good natured. There are pockets of pain in the arse supporters with some teams though - including mine (The Pontypandy Fisters). Seriously - don't worry about the rules. There's many areas of them that people who've watched the game for years won't know properly. I worked out I've watched Wales about 80 times over the years (and hundreds of other games) - I'm still mystified and not well up on some of them. I post on a rugby site and there's endless debate about many decisions during televised games - and this from really knowledgable fans. Even some commentators get things wrong. A classic example is the forward pass. In the recent Wales v Australia there were howls from the crowd that an Oz should have been disallowed as the last pass to the guy scoring was forward. Commentators mentioned it too. Everyone in my pub was up in arms. All were wrong - for very technical reasons in the rules involving the physics of throwing a ball to a teammate while running at speed (momentum can cause a ball passed backwards to drift forward etc etc etc). It doesn't matter if you don't understand the finer points therefore - get a basic understanding of a few key things and it'll be enjoyable and you'll be on a level with 99% of the people there. " Thank you. Are the Pontypandy Fishers a swingers team? | |||

"You don't need to know anything about the sport just like most of the people there ..............its all about class , status and business in rugby union.......... Most have never thrown a rugby ball in their lives ............... It's all about the "I was there" prawn sandwich brigade you'll be lucky to see anyone under 30 years old. "yip thats the english outlook of rugby will find Belfast different from that though im sure you will have a wonderful time whether first or hundredith time attending match irish people very friendly always had great time in belfast pubs | |||

"Did you have a good night in belfadt lickety x" I did, thank you. I sat in a bar listening to live music and drinking until after 1am. My plan to go out to the Giant's Causeway has been cut short so I am heading back into Belfast on the train and will just pootle around there before deciding what to do this evening. I will have to return another time to finish my to do list. | |||

"Bars def good in belfadt for good night" I am quite shocked at the amount of alcohol I managed to drink this weekend. I managed to find cocktails, cake and live music. I sampled stew and Wheaten, dipped my finger in some Guinness and experienced the strange thing of being given a free £5 matched bet in a pub. I lost my fiver by betting on a horse called Funky Munky. | |||

The food was fantastic, the service great and the bill relatively small. | |||
