Bedford's crowds are truly incredible, 4500 is amazing for Level 2 & for a non-PRL side. 

The home crowd for Bedford v Ealing seemed particularly sphazelnut recently. Anyone know the attendance. I am comparing this season to past hone crowds at Bedford.

Ampthill v Nottingham 4 - 1 - Ampthill mob to protect their home field against the Nottingham squad in a part time battle.
Doncaster v Coventry  1 - 4 - Gut feeling that Donnie are due a slip up.
Hartpury v Ealing 0 -5 - As I said above, I really like this line up for Ealing. I'll guess a win by three tries.
Jersey v London Scottish 5 - 0 - Scottish not very good. Jersey very good. Analysis not very good.
Richmond v Cornish Pirates 4-1 - Arrrrgh you kidding me? No. Pirates to sneak it, but Richmond are better than their record suggests. Will this get played? I don't know.

We would play no matter what, Jersey should be COVID free and then we would get a team out. It is too much money to lose.

That was only 2,172. I think it wasn’t the best day and there was quite a bit of international rugby to watch. You generally get a core of 2,000 say and then the other float a bit, with generally at least 2,200 up to 3,200 and then Boxing Day could sell more like 8,000 if we could get them in.

It is just a bit of a tradition you go and watch the rugby on Boxing Day or New Years Day.

I went to welsh's last ever game as a pro club when they beat Scottish 35-7 , crowd felt massive that day. I wonder if any has a statistic for that?

We don’t exactly have a big squad so if we can’t field a team, we can’t field a team

Described as a small number of + cases in Ealing Squad - I hope they make a full and swift recovery ahead of the Pirates match.
Dont kick it. Pick it up and GO FORWARD.

Yes. We played Richmond last week, who also had positives. Of course, London is one big plague pit at the moment. Had two tradesmen cancel woth Covid this week.

Reds 24 Scots 6 - visitors actually led 5-6 for quite a while, but 2 converted tries in last 5 mins broke the game open, Reds sealing the BP & hopefully won't stop playing like they did last week...

31-9 to Doncaster, so much as anticipated.
Sounds like Cov have another injury to work around (in the first few minutes) and three yellow cards probably didn't help.
