    Late change of plan and I'll be driving down to Rosslyn Park tomorrow. If anyone wants a lift PM me.

    £10 for adult non CRSC members Ashdown. Leaves from the BPA yes but time not given yet. Like last year, I'll be getting the train early into Brum for a few sherbets beforehand.

    If anyone is going up to Moseley on 23rd December, discounted tickets at £12 can be ordered at a table in the Arena Bar before the Plymouth game this Saturday. You can email [email protected] for details or below are the details in the email reply that I received. I will be seated at a table...

    Not quite mate, Pete White starts in place of Brazier at scrum half but not much between them anyway. I can't see it being anything other than a fiercely contested game and looking forward to it immensely.

    Phew! I didn't see that coming and I don't think many did. A phenomenal performance of relentless controlled power and pace which Moseley had no answer to. It’s hard to believe that this Moseley side beat a very strong Worcester side pre-season. If we keep playing like not many sides are going...

    If you want to keep up to date Ashdown, Tim Smith does match commentary on his twitter account Tim Smith (@CowshedTim) on Twitter A bit flaky today as he lost connection with 15-20 mins to go but usually very good. I didn't go today as I'm working for one thing but a big match next week against...

    Let it go

    That's exactly the point I was making. The more thoughtful and intelligent posters can see that. Let go of your emotional attachment to the club because it is not the CCFC of old and it is only a matter of time before the club will finally be put to bed. I've got no time for half-wits who...

    Clearly you didn't fully read my post. You are that special type of cretin that will be delusional to the end, along with that dribbling cabbage Grendel.

    Let it go

    This is not the football club that I recognise or feel any affinity to. The heart and soul of the club went when we left Highfield Road but the club’s death warrant was effectively signed when SISU took over. It took me a long time to realise that but I like thousands of others have come to...

    Protests Which will attract Buyers!

    There aren’t any potential buyers and neither will there be. SISU would have to pay someone to take it off their hands and even then they’d struggle to find anyone with the resources to take the club on. The club is worthless and dying a slow painful death. It’s been on a life support machine...

    BPA - Back On?

    I’ll not mention his name but at a recent Cov Rugby game at BPA, I was standing next to an elderly bald headed gentleman wearing spectacles in an overcoat. He was having a conversation with another gentleman about the progression of Cov Rugby and CCFC cropped up. He didn’t want too say much as...

    Cov Rugby begin their league season tomorrow !

    Yes that's right. The scrum must have been re-set 5 times for Moseley pulling the scrum down 5m out. Should really have been a penalty try but ref not strong enough. Judge for yourself with these highlights

    Cov Rugby begin their league season tomorrow !

    An absorbing hard fought game with both sides giving it their all. Cov dominant for much of the game but unforced errors in defensive positions and going forward costing Cov the game. Poor handling and some injudicious kicking largely to blame for Cov's demise. A lineout steal 10m out 13...

    Cov Rugby begin their league season tomorrow !

    Some scintillating Rugby today, particularly in the first half. A big improvement in all areas on the last couple of seasons, re-cycling of the ball, quick offloading, ball handling, creative running play with plenty of pace, solid forward play, consistently good in the lineout, solid defence...

    Not innocent of what? Having sex with a floozy? If that's the case it must make most men guilty of rape and reflecting on my youth, I myself must be a serial rapist. Unless of course you've led an extremely sad and sheltered life.

    Rugby World Cup

    I'm looking forward to England vs Wales too. I think it's been a great tournament so far and it's pleasing to see how far some of the minnows have progressed since the last World Cup. All in all thoroughly enjoyable to watch.

    Rugby World Cup

    Another thread that started out with reasonable people discussing things in a civilised and adult manner has yet again been derailed and marred by the usual embittered minority who tarnish almost every thread on the entire forum. This resentful bunch seem unable to face reality and are either...

    Literally lolling at some of this...

    My 2nd favourite kit of all time that Otis. Fond memories of Tommy Hutch, Dennis Mortimer, Brian Alderson, Alan Green, John Craven (not Newsround), Chris Cattlin, Alan Dugdale, Les Cartwright etc playing in that.

    I think a more accurate title of this thread would read "Literally desperate to console myself with any crumb of comfort over my bitterness."

    I was at Goodison for that match too and as odd as it sounds, we were actually the better side overall and widely acknowledged as that. Disappointing yes but still entertaining to watch but that's how it was under the GM era. The 7-1 defeat at West Brom was totally different, completely...
