Re: Is the nation ready for the Lions’ roar? Good article. Am not sure Lion's supporters refer to themselves as 'Barmy Army'. Quote In two weeks time, he expects nothing but British and Irish: "I’m not too sure Rotorua is ready for the hooligans who are going to hit the town. And I’m worried about the locals getting involved," he says. "I’m praying everything runs smoothly." Unquote. What hooligans? There were 40,000 Lions' travellers in australia in 2001 -- at different times -- and there were no significant arrests. I was in Sydney only, party started Darling Harbour 8.00am, and it was the safest easiest celebration of sport you could image, right thru to beyond midnight, and despite losing. If you're a Kiwi and live anywhere from Bay of Plenty to Invercargill, you'll be stunned at the amount of visiting support, and how Lions' followers can, well, hold their drink.
