Apparently Lincoln, Wthycombe and Aireborough have pulled out, giving Beverley, St Ives (SW), and Old Bedians Away Walkovers - to add to the byes.

Possibly correct. But there's no doubt that it is "Papa Johns' brand name".
Can’t argue with that.

Ironically, they get it right in the text.
The apostrophe is only in the URL.

Hmmmmmm.... how to create chaos - the draws for all the PJCs

The lower end of the competition has something like 70-odd 1st Round Byes which means if your Leagues finished last weekend or this weekend you don't play your first cup game until April 15th.

Oh and the finals venues are StoneX for the South (not Ealing) and Darlington MP in the North


You have to cut and paste the link the ' is a link killer

So Dudley will get £796 for their trip to Alnwick, including the accommodation supplement.

That would just about pay for ten rooms in the Premier Inn in Alnwick on the Friday night, assuming the lads are prepared to double up. But not include breakfast or dinner.

And, of course, there is the coach on top of that.

Well some support so good for Papa John.
My interest in this subject started when I was looking for Billingham’s draw.
Despite them walking their Regional One league it looks like they haven’t entered,  so presumably financial support not enough for them.

Looks like you'll have to cut and paste it because of the apostrophe!

Don't know if it's current, but from the RFU website - travel support -

I think there may have been and earlier draft that made the explicit. But I could be remembering earlier proposals from the AGR.

As ever, communication by the RFU was its usual standard.

I have not seen - but I am not a treasurer at a club involved - any documentation on travel support, or prize money.

But communication does not hide the fact that in five weeks of competition, you are only guaranteed one home match, and - should you reach the final - could be away for the other four weeks.

Or you could be at home three of the five weeks.
