Really? From memory the clubs are told provisional dates in early June with fixtures confirmed in July…. Or has my memory failed me? |

 It still isn’t clear which teams will be competing in the Championship yet. We don’t even have a firm date of when this will be decided |

Well, they are releasing the leagues for levels four and five, so they think they know who is playing at those levels. I assume National 1 will go one short if Wasps fold - the league with most travel and least support - or are the RFU going with the idea of adding RFU Barbarians sides to make up the numbers. |

We've got the dates for the season's fixtures at L5, but not the fixtures themselves.

The make up of Level 6 leagues also announced . My friends at Stockton have 4 coach trips to Cumbria to enjoy and pay for, which will be a factor in deciding whether to enter PJ cup next season (if there is one).

Given this was posted under 'clubhouse chat' I'm guessing it refers to level 3 and below. The Championship fixtures are usually a bit later and given the continuing uncertainty over the make-up of the 2nd tier, they're probably a little way off yet. Wasps' latest deadline is the end of May, according to yesterday's Times article...

There is a problem with the Cumberland clubs, there are not enough of them at this level to be a league of their own, and they are a long way from anywhere. Either the East coast clubs have to travel cross-country, or the Lancastrian clubs have to head up the M6. I do not know which is easier, but the Lancastrian clubs had been squeaking for a long time.

I wasn’t trying to suggest that travelling across country was a big issue. The lads like a day out and the Lakes is not a bad place to go. However, clubs have to find money to pay for a bus and it’s approx £1k a trip. Of course, the Cumbrian clubs have to make twice as many cross country trips .

Has anyone kept a tally of how many 'deadlines' Wasps have had so far?

Enough to make it clear as day to everyone that if you are one of the Premiership Old Boys Club members or (nearly) an RFU founder member, then they will bend over backwards to try and save you.

Difficult to calculate - are you including the deadlines for paying back the bond?

So with the demise of Wasps and Worcester apparently sorted does it mean fixtures for 2023 - 2024 season will be issued shortly

I would imagine they will wait for the London Irish saga to play out |

fixtures for levels 3/4? - don't know, but quite possibly... Champ fixtures? - doubt it quite yet, as per CPK observation below...

NCA AGM tomorrow, is it not? You would have thought that some relevant issues might be raised there. I hear there could be news about promotion from Nat 1 to Champ at end of 23/24 season. And it might not be very welcome news.

Broken down. Beyond repair.
