	Millennium Stadium - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		The Millennium Stadium (Welsh: Stadiwm y Mileniwm) in Cardiff is the national stadium of Wales, used primarily for rugby union and football.
		Efforts were made by the WRU to persuade the rugby club to move to a new stadium, but these were unsuccessful; the stadium had to be completed with a break in its bowl structure (now known colloquially as "Glanmor's Gap", after, then chairman of the WRU).
		These matches will stop being held in Cardiff after 2006 and efforts have been made to attract Cardiff City F.C. to use the stadium for their own home matches (which would provide much-needed income), but the Bluebirds are apparently determined to build their own stadium.

	Panstadia VOL 3/No 3 - 'HEART OF THE CITY'
		The stadium is primarily to be the home of Welsh rugby but, thanks to the imagination and foresight of the WRU and Cardiff County Council, it has been designed for flexible multi-purpose use.
		In order to remain on the Arms Park site additional space had to be found to allow safe access and to provide room for the increased capacity and facilities.
		This is being achieved by the purchase of adjacent buildings to the south and east and by the construction of a new river walk by the Taff on the west side.

		The crowd packed into the Arms Park were soon venting their anger, and secret delight, as the game erupted after five minutes with punches flying between opposite outside-halves, Ceri Sweeney and Lee Thomas.
		Hence Cardiff began the second half in buoyant mood and despite the absence of the Robinson brothers, Nick and Jamie, from their back division, still possessed plenty of options, particularly in the strong running of Tom Shanklin.
		Instead, Thomas added a penalty for Cardiff who, with the five-point lead, were content to keep prodding the ball forward and keep the Dragons at arms' length.
