They certainly have.England have been brilliant today.
I was in the third row of the Gallowgate, it was proper awkward.Farcical scenes at Sid James due to knackered PA system and now a delayed kick off.
Gutted as they are my local club and whilst I wasn’t particularly invested in them it was easy to pop over and watch a Premiership game. That’s probably the issue though, only a tiny portion of the local community could probably be called “supporters”. Attendances at the CBS have never been big and they seemed to be constantly giving away tickets for free.Wasps in administration now.
Off topic but anyone going to any of the RLWC2021 games?
This is pretty much what should happen. 10 team Prem and 10 team Championship. 1 up, 1 down from each league along with play offs between 9th, 2nd, 3rd & 4th.Gutted as they are my local club and whilst I wasn’t particularly invested in them it was easy to pop over and watch a Premiership game.

Obviously I don’t want any club to go into administration and it’s horrendous that people are losing their jobs, but this is a good opportunity for the authorities to really sit down and sort their shit out. Reducing the Prem to a 10 team league and putting some effort and investment into the second tier makes so much sense.
An 18 game domestic season makes sense from a player welfare perspective and should also keep the England players fresher for international matches. They currently head into the 6 Nations in February with their bodies battered after an intense Xmas period playing for their clubs.
If the RFU can afford it I’d even look at centrally contracting the England players to properly look after them.

Step aside sexton. Best drop goal I’ve ever seen. Watched it live. I shouted “oh my f***ing god” in excitement

Wife looked at me in utter disgust as if to say “you’ve never got that excited with me”….
Hope you're having a good time! Did you take advantage of the pre-match ritual that is the Swift Half? (Marquée on the field behind the east stand)I’m in Bath today watching the Northampton game.
Such a beautiful place.
It was a great game mate. Unfortunately I didn’t take advantage of the Swift Half. I didn’t roll out of the Saracens Head until 20 past 2. Now in Bellushi’s carrying on the booze.Hope you're having a good time! Did you take advantage of the pre-match ritual that is the Swift Half? (Marquée on the field behind the east stand)
Wish I could have been there today, sounds like we're finally playing some rugby.
Something to look forward to next time then. Glad you enjoyed it.It was a great game mate. Unfortunately I didn’t take advantage of the Swift Half. I didn’t roll out of the Saracens Head until 20 past 2. Now in Bellushi’s carrying on the booze.
