That's right. The RFU are notorious for their favoritism towards Ealing....or is is it that they are famous for their incompetence? One or the other.

Definitely correct on both counts sir WinkLOLWinkLOL

I do like the recent team announcements from Bedford, openly stating how many loans they have in the matchday squad.

I think other teams including my own team Donny,  should do this.

5 in this week's squad for the blues
Donny playing 2

Was it a fan led idea?

Confusion reigns this evening in Oxfordshire. 
Are Chinnor away to Saracens in the Prem cup tomorrow or are they playing Ampthill in the Championship?
My understand was that a gentleman's agreement not to include anymore than 6 DRs in match day squads was reached between clubs, which seems to have gone straight out of the window down at Ampthill with their inclusion of 9 Saracens DRs in the starting line up and another 2 on the bench. 
Are things really that bad down at Ampthill already, so early in the season that the inclusion of all of these DRs is on an "absolutely necessary" basis.

I can't help thinking that Ampthill are slightly hamstrung by the Welsh SRC (Championship equivalent) being better organised than it's predecessors.

This has removed a pool of players which Ampthill have done well out of in the past.

Why does that mean you field 11 Dual Reg players?

Is their DoR that bad he can’t sign players?

Pirates 1 - 4 Ealing - attritional in the mud and rain
Doncaster 5 - 1 Nottingham - think Nottingham will run 4 tries in
Hartpury 5 - 0 Scottish - can't see Scottish getting anything here and Hartpury were running Ealing close for a while
Ampthill 5 - 1 Chinnor - Try bonus for Chinnor
Caldy 4 - 1 Cambridge - Caldy didn't look great last week, but should still win
Coventry 5 - 2 Bedford - really wanted to say the other way but I think we are lacking a couple of players for the win.

My edit was fixing spelling!

You are correct, I forgot to green them.  Blues have done it for quite a while really.
