watched it on the screen and was 10m away perfectly good try.

A lot has been said about the Cheshire Caldy/Sale combinations, very little said about the Cornwall chances for todays game.

If Cornwall go on to win this it shows just what it means to them.

Cheshire made up exclusively of now Championship Caldy and 2nd place in Nat 1 Sale FC surely down as favourites

And all credit to them, not an easy journey.  They always travel to support their county (I guess because there's nothing else to do on a saturday down there beyond support that new club in the lesser code) Great fun supporting Cornwall. There is always a special atmosphere. The players know what it means too. People seem to just enjoy supporting their teams down this way. I watch Plymouth Albion around the country with a group of fans and it's the passion that keeps us all going. Often think it's probably different living in London etc for people. Nice words Carlos. Was following from afar for this one and was a bit nervous at 5-0 and 19-21. Hertfordshire have a good history in the competition. I agree with the comments on the structure in the thread as it may have been Cornwall missed out when they had played two games but knew that was just the way the fixtures went, it could have been Cornwall with Surrey and other counties would have been able to say but Cornwall haven't played etc. Looking forward to playing Cheshire again, an interesting match ahead after most of their players finished first or second in National 1. Looking forward to the final ,Cornish supporters are a great bunch think its the only time some of them ever leave Cornwall is to visit Twickenham .Cheshire do have players in the squad who played at level 7 this season so should be interesting.
