Fair play to Donny - just saw they've posted an 11-minute "highlights" video of a game in which they failed to score a try, didn't trouble the scoreboard at all for the final 50 minutes & lost by 40. Many clubs would have just parked that one and moved on...

I don't think anyone is getting promoted, but Newcastle needs to be relegated.

Completely agree. With no danger of relegation it doesn't matter how awful they are. A team that could well go the entire season without winning a game stay in the league. What a farce.

Yes but they've got a big ground so all is ok!

I really don’t think you need to be that touchy about a match report from an opponent that you beat 54-19. Chip on the shoulder by any chance?. 

What a strange response... Touchy? Just pointing out a fact, and why would I have a chip on my shoulder? I'd hope any balanced report would acknowledge the good play of the other team whoever that might be.  It's just good form.

I wonder did Ealing win the lineout or @%*× it up ?

I boarded a plane at about 3:30. It was 0-9 in Doncaster’s favour. I arrived in Alicante just under three hours later. Ampthill 49-9 Doncaster. I was gobsmacked. Doncaster are a top top Championship side. I shall enjoy my short spell in the sunshine. Who ‘s next?

The fact is, and I speak as a Bedford supporter, that we don't know how to beat Coventry.
Since Cov's welcome return to the Championship we've been done over on most occasions.
