There is a lot of that, no doubt, but your comment singled out Cov as one of the offenders, and I'm not having it. Others here have pointed out some of the Woodlands and Coundon Court boys who made it, but there were many many more at Cov, plus many from Barkers' and Broadstreet Sec. Moderns...

And hasn't watched Julian Fellowes' The English Game on Netflix.

Full time Ealing 19-13 Cov. Bollocks.

Don't hold your breath. Ealing have the advantage of the wind in the second half, and have a tendency to ramp things up as necessary. Cov have already done us proud though, whatever transpires.

Am hearing that Rob Knox is definitely on his way (down a level) and Will Owen, who has bought a house with the lovely Demelza, and is building a business, is also leaving. Together with Burrows, Boulton, Fenner, and Barton, that's a big hole to fill before September. I'm sure there'll be more...

Cov lead 10-6 at half time.

Oi! (Second and third sentences absolutely fair enough though 😉).

One more player announced as going to a Prem club. Josh Barton to Newcastle. Bit of a dead end club in the overall Prem picture, but I wish him well, and hope he isn't just going to be picking up splinters or loaned out to a rival Champ club. He's a good lad, and has been doing a very good job...

The RFU? Thinking? Using their own assets to promote their own competition? Hah. The very thought.

Ealing prevail as expected, so Cov have to make the trip there for the final. They might get a crowd of 1000, with Cov supporters making up 50% of that number, whereas you could probably guarantee a minimum of 3k if it was at the Butts. It's almost as if the RFU aren't interested in attracting...

Brandon Estates really need to have the book thrown at them. Utter bastards.

Agreed OSB. However, I was actually fairly pleasantly surprised by the last financials given the Covid period preceding them. Could've been far worse. I'm hearing one or two pleasant rumours on the player front, but nobody should expect too much given that there's nowhere to go next season...

Good question. If PzN win, the final is at the BPA. If, as predicted, Ealing win, it'll be at their own midden. Don't ask me about RFU logic...

Decent result tonight in Jersey in the Championship Cup semi-final. Jersey 17-20 Cov, and they progress to the final next week against Ealing or Penzance & Newlyn. Quite a turnaround from the heavy home defeat to Jersey just a few weeks ago.

Certainly not fifteen years. But shit way to do it nonetheless. Contractual. Lawyers. Blah, blah.

This morning, I 'ave mostly been pinching out sweet peas. Planted 50 of the seeds I collected from last season's plants about six weeks ago, and 50 came up. Not a bad return. I'll be planting them out in the next few days. Love sweet peas!

Van Gooly-bollocks as my late friend used to call him. He was awful, but I knew people that actually rated him. Nowt so queer as folk.

He'll certainly be missed by Eddie Kidd, among others.

Only just heard this. Shocked. Rest easy Banger.

You mean you didn't get her a dishwasher for Christmas after all? Take care Houch. Best wishes to both of you.
