Good news on both fronts

I believe that John Inverdale mooted that we will get a fixture list in May for the N1/N2 leagues for 2021/22. 

I think they are waiting to see that the roadmap is progressing as we can't even have scrum/maul training until at least Stage 3 of the Government roadmap, with full contact matches no less than two weeks after so no non-adapted law games could take place until 31st May at the earliest anyway.

I'd rather wait a month and know we have a more settled schedule than get a less settled schedule early. Hopefully we could get some friendlies going late July/early August so we can then stay after the game in the clubhouse to watch the Lions Tests.

Given Nat 1 and Nat 2 structure is staying the same for 21/22, clubs taking part in those leagues are known and there is no relegation from the Championship would it not be a good idea for the fixtures to come out soon so that clubs can plan pre season /pre-season friendlies plus any other potential fund raising activities they might wish to run. Not sure the reason for having to wait? Halliford- any thoughts as the man in charge is at your club?

Personally I'm just glad we all seem to still have clubs (unless anyone knows different) - players I'll welcome when they turn up!
keep the faith

Another re-signing with Fullback Paul Jarvis signing on for another year in a player coach role - 


Hopefully some other clubs may start to announce some business soon I’m starting to feel a little lonely on this thread 😂

More great news coming out from DMP today, club stalwart prop Ralph Appleby resigns for next season for 13th year with the club - amazing that Ralph who has played more than 300 games for the club since 2008, and almost 100 in the first 15. 

Not bad for a lad who I am told is still only 30ish. 


Great to see the club retaining the core of the squad
