Gay Cruising Parks In Dc

when you hold us ... William

At the beginning of the year, I am more and more addicted to the ball oval. I'm going to propose an article exclusively rugbystiqu, especially on the first game of the year MHR of Montpellier, against the USAP Perpignan, which was held Saturday afternoon at the Yves du Manoir stadium.

And yes, we started in 2011 with what we might call the challenge Languedoc-Roussillon, or rather Languedoc Roussillon vs. In fact, it's regional supremacy was at stake in this Saturday Cloudy. A match against a backdrop of hand because the Blues had gone to Montpellier beat the Catalan Blood and Gold on their land Perpignan last August.

Who would have thought a few years ago, that could claim the Montpellier regional leadership in the field of rugby?
Indeed, the MHR is a very young club. He was born in 1986 from the merger of Stadium Montpellier and Montpellier Université Club (imposed by Georges Freche). And it only 8 seasons as Montpellier evolving in the elite French rugby (after a first passage in the 90s). His record is blank, except for a European Shield victory in 2004, a European Cup second area that has survived three seasons.

However, our region has experienced prestigious clubs, starting with the AS BĂ©ziers which celebrates its centenary this year . The team Beziers was 11 times champion of France. Only the Stade Toulousain (14 times) and the Stade French (13 times) are most successful. In the 70s and early 80s, Beziers dominated French rugby. Today the team plays in a federal (third division).

The RC Narbonne also had his moment of glory, much smaller than its neighbor Beziers, but has still won two league titles in France in 1936 and 1979. For the record, the club Narbonne celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2007. The ceremony took place after the last game of the season, lost to Narbonne, which marked the descent of the team in second division after a century in the elite.
Both say that the atmosphere was rather sad to Narbonne on the evening of Centennial (I was there ...).


And if one goes down a little further south-west (is it a coincidence?), It falls on Perpignan. The Sports Union Harlequins Perpignan won 7 times champion of France. The last in 2009 against ASM Clermont-Ferrand, who took his revenge last year. The rugby was born in Perpignan in the late nineteenth century and the first title of the city dates from 1914.

So you see, Montpellier little brother figure is in addition to these iconic rugby teams regionally. But I do not dwell on the past and it is clear that the MHR is the team that goes in the 2010-2011 season, for my greatest pleasure and that of his thousands of supporters .

And thousands, there were 15 stage on Saturday afternoon, a record. It must be said that the time, though cloudy, was particularly sweet for January 8. In addition, Perpignan being only an hour and a half away, supporters of the USAP were out in force. Quite simply, my friends and I were surrounded by blood and gold.

Here is a video game I made for you and I will comment later.



The MHR was anticipated that this match would be difficult, as the forwards were in great demand and especially that the opponents would be sturdy, as evidenced by the displays, concocted opportunity (photo cons). The match ended in a 12-12 left me a bitter taste at the time. Indeed, this is the first time this season that my team does not win on his land. And not for lack of trying.

After being dominated in the opening half (you could see on the video test refused to Perpignan), the Montpellier spent the rest of the match trying to pierce the defense of Perpignan, without success . For its part, the USAP was content to spend his third balloons online Samoan Henry Tuilagi, a force of nature (photo-cons) so he tries to cross the lines of the Blues, with no success either.

As you have seen in recent footage of the video, Montpellier produced the game until the last minute. Our little Blue are really brave, they played until after the victory, at the risk of taking a cons. Finally, it is the strikers who scored all the points on penalties.
I would also like to take my hat off to Perpignan Jerome Porical has quite a kick and we again proved yesterday.


In hindsight, I think both teams could win this match, although one of them has a game much more appealing. So, the draw is not a disaster for us. I would say it is quite encouraging for the rest of the season.
Indeed, getting out with the honors of a match difficult, painstaking as that of Saturday, can only strengthen the team at the psychological level.
I'm sure our little Blue will finish the championship in the first 6 places (synonyms finals of the Heineken Cup and ) for the first time in their history.

As to what is the best team in the region, Montpellier is undoubtedly this year (at least so far). But the USAP is a great team and I'll probably encourage him to Barcelona in early April for his match against Stade Toulousain relocated.

If you want to have another vision, shifted more of this afternoon's rugby, I advise you article the other best blog Montpellier, The aperitif Friday.

Finally in music, here's an excerpt from the concert that my friend and co-blogger, Mister 110 Volts, and I've been seeing on the evening of match. These King Salami & the Cumberland 3 . It was great and I'll tell you all that in my next article.
