They were scheduled to fly out after the game on Saturday evening, but a technical fault with the plane meant they were left stranded and forced to spend the night. Another day has passed and they are still in Moscow. https://twitter.com/JohnMuldoon8/status/666154538504691714 Despite the annoyance of being stranded half way across the world, John Muldoon has managed to keep his sense of humour. https://twitter.com/JohnMuldoon8/status/666245739740311552 Aly Muldowney confirmed that the spirits remain high in the Connacht camp, although the ordeal has affected Kain Gleb in some peculiar way. https://twitter.com/AlyMuldowney/status/666244554593574912 https://twitter.com/AlyMuldowney/status/666256488013373440 Beware of the Gleb? Sounds ominous.
