You have clearly upped your offering to recognise Chinnor's new Championship status despite easier access to the beer. Interesting background information and a great advertisement for the club (as long as you don't plan to sit in the roofless stand)....and you resisted mention of the Mob's selection this week. 

A couple of questions which you may be able to help with. Has Jason Worrall retired and do you know what happened to Joe Browning...has he signed elsewhere?

The RFU are not the only governing body to screw things up. In league, London Broncos were relegated before a ball was kicked following a review of clubs with their brightest stars signed by other clubs before the end of the season as a result. I dislike it when people make decisions that lead to the playing field being as level as Caldy's pitch.

Linked-In has Joe Browning living in Australia and playing for Randwick

It looks like Jason Worrall has retired, his Linked-In profile has his rugby career ending in May 2024

I was surprised and disappointed by the turnout yesterday, for what should have been one of the standout home fixtures of the season. It was a nail biting match but the performance and atmosphere was subdued imo. 

Genuinely I think this is what happens when you neglect a competition with no/unrealistic promotion and relegation (at both ends of the table). That doesn’t excuse Ealing from not really building on their core support but when there are a lot of alternative entertainment options on offer within 30 mins travel time, there has to be some meaning to the competition otherwise how do you attract local casual rugby fans? 

Anecdotally round here, Champ rugby is seen as being on a par with non-league football and that really is the fault of the RFU and PRL.
