CHAIRMANS MESSAGE
SCARLETS Vs MUNSTER
SIMON ANOTHER WEEK, ANOTHER HUGE GAME AT THE PARC AS WE WELCOME THE PLAYERS, SUPPORTERS AND OFFICIALS OF MUNSTER TO LLANELLI. Hearing Sosban Fach, Yma O Hyd, Ar Lan y Môr and Hymns and Arias reverberate around the ground last Friday night was pretty emotional for us all. It has been a long time since we have seen and heard you all back here in such numbers. As our Chief Operating Officer Phil Morgan outlined in his open letter to supporters this week, the night didn’t go without a few issues and I can assure you we are working through them all to make sure we can make our matchday experience as positive as we can. As Phil outlined, Covid has had a significant impact on a number of our processes. We had to work to counter the loss of our supplier for season ticket cards which meant they were sent out just a couple of days before the game. It is also well documented that the hospitality industry is experiencing a huge amount of challenges in terms of staff shortages and recruitment. We are encountering the same challenges at the Scarlets with a lot of our match-day operations reliant on casual staff, many of whom are just starting out with us. Hopefully, you will find that many of the issues of last weekend have been smoothed out and everything about our match-day experience is back to where we all want it to be.
time runaround and we have live entertainment in both our supporters village and the bar in the East Stand, before and after the match. I spoke to a lot of people after the Lions game and they were really positive about where we are as a club, off and on the field - some of the tries scored on Friday night had the Scarlets DNA running through them! Hopefully, we will see more of the same this afternoon. Enjoy the day, enjoy the game and cheer on the boys loud and proud. Diolch Simon
