Looking forward to this game tonight, but it does seem a bit weird. Almost as if the season had finished and is starting again, albeit very briefly. This should be a tough game, Hartpury will not be coming here to lose and The Reds will want to continue in this competition. Having said that, should Jersey advance, the cup will certainly play second fiddle to the annual slug fest against Guernsey on the 14th May. That really should attract a large crowd and will be a very close encounter.

We are allowed 1, the Jersey born and bred 20 year old Harry Doolan, so the Jersey Reds will play A N Other in the cup semi on Friday with JRFC our amateur side (+1) play the Guernsey semi-pros on Saturday, which should have a crowd of 3,000 plus!!…..it does get a bit complicated

Brizzer. I can't/shouldn't/won't get into details about the RC, because there'll be a disciplinary as always on these occasions & it's not for me to pre-judge that process. But you're right that the Reds had the ball in the build-up to this incident and a 'dangerous clear-out' would be a more accurate way of describing the alleged offence...

I had no problem with the red card which seemed clear to me but the contact was in no way malicious and the referee was right up with play and gave the card immediately. The match could easily have gone either way at that point but Jersey's game management when down to 14 was remarkable and they totally controlled things up to the last score. Two very good teams gave a cracking match last night.

Ealing 21 (3T) - Ampthill 7 (1T) HT - A very nice passage that went through ateast 4 sets of hands for Ealing's 3rd try. Ealing have the wind in the second half. Surprisingly bad tempered affair, and one of the Amphill players had a go at his own bench to quit heckling Sir.

Ealing 49 (doesnt matter) - Ampthill 19 (also doesnt matter) - A pile of tries in a ten minute span by Ealing, then a nicely worked fifteen or so phases for Ampthill to hit back. Then Charlie Walker danced through 5 players to score Still a very chippy affair. Sir seems badly out of his depth, with a number of howlers (and this is coming from an Ealing supporter). Attendance maybe 500.

Have no idea how we’ve managed to lose that tie. Big leads thrown away in both legs. Match winning tries inexplicably dropped with the try line gaping at the end of normal time and extra time. Maisey missing 4 simple kicks in a row in the last 10 mins of normal and extra time, which, other than the conversion, any would’ve won the tie. Bottle jobs

Well done, Ampthill, for going to Ealing and scoring 4 tries. The lesson to learn here is to stop them from scoring 8. Meanwhile, do Ampthill now progress to the semi-finals because they lost on aggregate in the first round, then lost on aggregate in the quarter finals? I will have to check the rules of this wonderful and meaningful competition.
On a more serious note, congratulations to my team for a solid performance in their first full season in this league. Enjoy your summer off.

The Pirates match summed up the Blues season, so much promise but not quite seeing it through.
Can’t blame Maisey, he has played so well all season so to have one off day with the boot, it happens.
Stedman also dropped the ball with a walk in and overlap.
Probably good to exit on a decent crowd which was higher than a round 2,600 quoted, as away to Ealing and then probably another away game if we own; the money stops. The players can now enjoy the off season ready to go again.

| The old maxim of forwards and defence winning matches whereas backs determine the points difference still rings true. Blues have lots of promise in the backs but forwards & defence are probably still important.

It clearly could have gone wither way at GR and Pirates had a bit of luck with Maisey having a bad day with his kicking. Carwyn Penny's touch line conversion (frist kick at goal he's had this season I reckon) proved the difference after fly half Robson went off injured and Penny stepped in to 10. The "prize" is an away game at Ealing!

Sharpy's Prog notes:Welcome to Butts Park Arena for our return fixture of this two-legged cup quarter final against Doncaster Knights. We surprised the bookmaking fraternity by winning an exciting game at Castle Park last week 22-35 and we look to protect that 13 point lead today, with progress to the semi-final stage being decided by the aggregate score of the two legs. Both the semi-finals and final will be single-leg affairs. Donny have had a very strong league season, topping the table for some time before just falling short and coming second to Ealing Trailfinders. Both clubs had applied for an audit by the RFU regarding minimum standards, a necessary process if promotion to the Premiership is to be allowed. The minimum standards require a ground capacity of 10,001 and with neither side achieving that capacity at the time of application, they were nevertheless comfortable that planning permission would be received in time to confirm their intent, not to be able to accommodate that number immediately, but in a sensible, phased manner. It was disgraceful, in my opinion that neither application was granted, in each case the minimum capacity criterion being quoted as the reason for denial. This from the RFU who bleat on about us having to be financially self-sustainable; why then be forced to spend millions on stadia that are never going to be filled? Ealing’s average gates are significantly less than 1,000 and Doncaster’s around 2,000. At least four Premiership clubs regularly fail to get 10,000 and this decision is no less than ring-fencing by another name. Note that in the English Football League, which is rather better supported than our game, the minimum standard for Premiership entry is a ground capacity of 5,000. The weather forecast for today is promising and the Cov lads are raring to go: we look forward to an entertaining spectacle. Let’s give them our wholehearted support and really make some special noise today. C’mon Cov! Jon Sharp Executive Chairman
Not the RFU's biggest fan, our Jon.

There are certainly some coming, but the circumstances of this end-of-season comp aren’t ideal (to put it mildly) with only a week between games offering little time to plan. The short notice & fact that we’re into the early stages of the summer season means prices aren’t cheap, altho’ more creative types may have looked at cheaper air routes from, say, Liverpool or Manchester & widened their accommodation options thru’ use of AirBnB or similar. Hopefully there will be longer gaps between KO rounds next season, followed (again hopefully) by a better overall structure from 23/24 onwards…

A week Islander? Five days, as each of our clubs took a day out of that week. I don't blame either club for their decision. I do think the cup was ineptly structured - gaps should have been before the knock-out stages between progressing clubs, not during the early stage when teams were known in advance.Add to that a Friday night game, and there in practice is a night over somewhere.
In my case I need to be in London early on Saturday afternoon. I looked, and couldn't find anything suitable and affordable.
Here's to a league match next season with sufficient lead time, and not in the Covid season.
