Of course, we have warm beer and cricket when rugby players take time off.

The older I get, the more the RFU leave me confused.

Just got my tickets for the April game ,Jersey Reds v Ealing  Trailfinders, league return fixture. Book quickly if you are going they are in demand. Seated near the half way line, £ 19 each .......bargain.

I got mine today as well + 4 others . Looks like there’ll be at least 6 of us πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ‡³πŸ‡¬πŸ‡³πŸ‡¬

There seems to be loads of cheap flights still available that day (the early Heathrow flight was being offered at £56) but the midday flight was almost twice that level. For the intrepid who punt for the early flight which arrives at 8.30 I recommend El Tico Beach Cantina Jersey – Cafe Restaurant overlooking the sea in Jersey (elticojersey.com)  for a memorable breakfast and a view to treasure. The number 22 bus goes from the airport straight to it and returns right back to the Rugby club. If you are lucky the bus will be a double decker and you will get the front seats upstairs and sing Jerry Rafferty songs all the way. If you have booked seats in the stand with the proper people take sun screen & wayfarers as they face due south towards the clubhouse and the sun should shine for both teams that day. I shall be standing against the boards with the usual suspects near the 5 meter line near the big screen. Have a great day lads.
Dont kick it. Pick it up and GO FORWARD.

Just to flag there is a possibility that Reds v Ealing on 22/4 may KO at 2pm rather than 3pm. This isn't yet confirmed, but will seek to get a definitive time soonest. Just thought I should mention for those planning trips...

ATM I think I'd rather be French
Identifying as British is pretty sad and embarrassing at the moment, and has been getting worse for about 12 years or more.

If that's how you feel Geoff, fair enough.  I'm proud to be British and even prouder to be Cornish!

Just to confirm: Reds v Ealing on 22/4 will now KO an hour earlier, at 2pm. This increases options for day-trips, with flights after the match to Southampton and LHR. Alho' seems a shame to come all this way and not make a weekend of it.
