Where are they?

Where are the fixtures?

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!  I hope those fixtures are wrong,  I have to work 20th December, No way I can book a day off.  I NEED to go to Redruth.  At least I have seven months to come up with a cunning plan.  

Fixtures sent out by Ivor Horscroft from the NCA,Bay at Polson on Oct 25th

Can we have a full list ASAP? Many thanks.

We had better get the travel arrangements sorted for the first match.

Bleddy typical!  Getting into Nat 2 gives me a chance to go to an away game at long last (Redruth) and the fixture will be on our busiest Saturday of the year, 20th December!!!    
Whoever devised these fixtures has clearly never worked in retail.

  Get your xmas orders in early this year with wino so that he can shut up shop and go to Redruth to support Bay!.

Good plan, Merlin  

Mind you I'm looking forward to us all staying at DaveH's on 18th April    

I hope he can fit us all in,still apparently he has a large scullery so some can kip in there.

Does that mean we have to sleep with his servants?  

At least we get one of big hikes out of the way quite quickly,let the Plane take the strain, or is Dennis in for a very long weekend?

Yes much better than the Reds, we go to Blaydon on Jan 3rd, what's the chances of snow falling then?

I can't wait for the Cambridge home game.  Cambridge have got a very large and load supporter who has to be seen to be believed!!

Roll on the 13 September!!!

Well he should be head of security at their gaff!!.

Morning all.
I went to a function at Stourbridge yesterday[Bay away there on September 20th]. I saw Pirates win there in, I think, 2002.
A very friendly , pretty middle class club with v good facilities. They have a big fund raising[for club and rugby charities] weekend in May. Yesterday's lunch was attended by over 800 and included as guest speakers Sean fitzpatrick and Graham Poll[chavball ref].Incredibly well organised.
Tonight their end of season ball will be attended by 750.
Interestingly the first XV are virtually absent from any of these events; the club run 5/6 other tems plus colts and minis, so the Div 2 team is virtually a club within a club.
I suspect the Boarding Party will be made very welcome and it should be a great trip[and one of the shorter ones!]

I will certainly be going to that one.

Almost down the road for us, Exile. We played them last summer in a pre-season friendly. They were the better side, but not by too much. Mind they should be when one takes into account their budget for the year.
