The same ones that they'll be playing Mose under...

Who knows - but I'd be inclined to imagine Champ rules as it's not a league game and the season won't have started. Could be wrong.

I have heard, not official, that all Champ clubs playing friendlies against lower league opposition will have to adopt the new tackle laws.

I know that Coventry will be playing to the tackle "law" (which isn't changed at all, just enforces what the law says already about high tackles.  

You know, because Champ sides, like the sides in the leagues below it,  have such high tackle related concussion rates.

Don't get me started.

which makes sense - they can revert to 'normal' (as mentioned below, er, pretty much not applying the actual laws) again afterwards, while the lower sides will be desperately trying to prepare for, er, having pretty much the actual laws properly applied. So are in more need of practice.
