I've seen him quoted as 25, 26 and 27, so who knows eh? Never an exact science.

They carried on with mostly replay stuff when I looked (I was wandering all round the ground). Early days. It'd be nice if they used it for a count-down clock, and the attendance figure, list of scorers etc., but I'm sure that'll come. Sorry, can't give his name just yet (not sure if his...

It'd be nice to keep it 'stuck', at least for the time being. I got a bit more info on the ground proposals today, but it's no secret, so details are probably out there already - somewhere. Also learned that we've signed another with a football background. A back-rower who could have been a...

No names, no etc. As 'big' if not bigger, but 'better' is moot, but the main target is Kessell as he's already been here on loan and fits in really well and is a known quantity (and may even be slightly cheaper). I think all Cov fans would have him back (unless they're rather peculiar).

Agreed, all that. The 9 they are talking to is playing hardball on a silly salary demand (i've literally just been told), so we'll have to see.

It's an average of six measured over a period of time. One hooker, two props, two locks/back row, and a 9. (Kessell a possible, and he wants to come, but currently tied to saints. They have lost one, but have one more coming in, and it depends where Kessell ends up in the pecking order. A...

Setu played one league game, at Old Albanian in September (at No8) and did his shoulder. Litchfield rarely stopped moaning TBF, and really couldn't get to grips with artificial pitches, so I'm not in the least bit surprised that he's been released. #attitude Admittedly no props are big fans of...

Yep, that's what it says, but I don't believe it!

Really? Kidding, surely?

I had no idea who was coming in (they've tightened up on security somewhat). If this is the 'big' signing that blog refers to, then it's pretty underwhelming TBF, even though he's a decent enough stand-off.

Typically frank response by RW We were second best, concedes Winter – Coventry Rugby

Agree that Lincoln and Shrews did well by 'percentage'. Much better than us. But face it, they have nobody else for miles. All you see in e.g. Lincoln city centre is Lincoln shirts (and Man Utd, naturally). We're surrounded by higher level teams. Not saying that's a great excuse, mind!

Add Jeannot to the list of wounded. Forgot he was out too. But best just move on really. EDIT: Oh, and Olly Povoas too. How did I forget one of this season's most improved players (IMO)?

Refereed out of the game to a certain extent. He was absolutely determined to give Ampthill every possible chance, and succeeded. Add to that the number of injuries to the squad before the start, and adding in more during the game (and approaching 30 minutes when we were down to 14 and 13 men) I...

I think you're correct. Slipped right off the radar whatever happened. Not sure they'll retain him, but we'll see.

Ram's stats were well out of date it seems. Apparently he's played in pretty much all of Donny's games since his return in November, if I read it right. Good omen going forward. Three decent signings anyway, and answers a question about cover at full back.

I note that one of them played for the Army against the RAF last night (as did Nat Titchard-jones and Ravai Fakati. All started, loosehead, centre and wing).

Two of the mentioned lads are fairly regular (not ever-present, but over half) and one has played in about a quarter of the games. I don't know if injuries/unavailability (army for at least one of them I believe) have any bearing. Still, may be barking up completely the wrong tree names-wise!

If it's Aussie/Tongan loose forward Jack Ram as rumoured up in Donny, that's a good signing.

No clues on capacity (but 9 to 10000 tops feels about right given current capacity. If the Railway End is eventually developed I would think 12/13 thousand, but much depends on how much is standing. If the whole of the west side is terracing, then it could be up to 18000, but 15 more likely...
