It is now behind closed doors at another ground.
I expect Bill Sweeny will be shoving me out of the club bar at 5pm, after said club wins a game, a rare thing this season.
The older I get, the more the RFU leave me confused.

Another blow to Cambridge, especially financially. How many tickets/hospitality places had been sold? Behind closed doors, is that really necessary, a bit of a debacle. At least both sets of players will get some minutes in the legs, so all is not lost on the playing front at least.

That's a 4G pitch.

Genesis on tap. Which is another good reason to go there.

Not much parking.

I am guessing the last point is why it is officially behind closed doors.

Is Genesis a beer, or Phil Collins’s band?!

Phil has gotten a little thicker around the middle, but I'm not sure I'd call him stout.

Surprised at the location, Bedford (4G). Shelford has 4G, but has it got floodlights? Ath have a minimal level lighting.

Shelford do have lights, and parking.
But they also have four matches today
Two men's games featuring the PeaHuckleberrys themselves
Then two evening matches between Northampton Saints and Yorkshire U17 and U18.
