Chinnor's website lists Hampson as Head Coach with Nick Easter Director of Rugby.

None of Chinnor's loanees from Ealing are playing tomorrow. I've no idea if any agreement was made over Hampson playing against Chinnor

Here is the Chinnor side

George Worboys is listed on the bench for Ealing tomorrow vs Chinnor. He has been on loan to Chinnor from Ealing at some point this season, playing at fly half.


Worboys started twice and came off the bench once

I wish Chinnor good luck this evening, it'll be an intriguing match up and Ealing will be wary of not 'doing a Caldy' and being beaten by newly promoted part timers as they were at Paton Field two seasons ago.

Providing their is some trace of grass on the pitch and the lights have been topped up with Duracell Bunny juice, It'll make for a good evening. Hampson will be able to tell his (playing) colleagues about the 'coach to clubhouse' farm yard walk too.

There are 10, yes 10, Saracens players starting for Ampthill tomorrow. For context, Bedford have one Saints player starting. I’m not as opposed to DR as some members of this forum, I do think there is a good balance that can be achieved. But 10 is completely taking the pi**. I think Ampthill should be considered favourites for the game tomorrow. London Scottish take the most flak on here but I don’t think even they have fielded 10 Quins in the their team at any point.

That is ridiculous. What is the point of fielding a starting lineup with 10 players who are essentially from a different club (Saracens) under the banner of it being an Ampthill team? 

The Mob fans might as well just go to the StoneX and watch Saracens 1st team play if they are content with the direction of travel and ethos that Ampthill have adopted.

They are an old club who fought their way through the National Leagues to Level 2, but have clearly lost their way now, which is a shame. Perhaps agreeing to become a Saracens 2nd team is part of a deal if they want to stay at Level 2 when Prem 2 arrives.

Cov's erstwhile record of seven wins from seven is in danger of being bookended by a run of seven defeats from seven if they continue to name lineups like tomorrow's.
Rather worrying.

Ampthill had 11 Saracens in their squad when they played Chinnor in September but I don't know what the split was between starters and the number on the bench. London Scottish started with 9 Quins and had another three on the bench against Chinnor in December. All three Quins subs came on but I don't know if they ever had 10, 11 or 12 Quins on the pitch at the same time.
