Blimey Doc, you've got a good head for names, I clearly should have retained the programmes from all of our games. Suppose I could interrogate GMS but I have a life.

Don't rely on GMS for match cards, it's crashed - again.
As per, the RFU are blaming everyone but themselves.

Ha ha, no we won't get promoted, getting vertigo from the dizzy heights of third place TBH. I guess you're going to give HLH a good seeing to next weekend to secure your place?
Especially after this.

Game on! Couldn’t think of a better way to end the season than the HLH boys sending the might ossett back down to Y3!

I was told about the bollocking they got on Saturday after their result with hemsworth, from what was said it didn’t sound pleasant.

So either the HLH Boys are thinking about their summer holidays or a pumped up HLH will be looking to turn it around before the cup run.

On that note anyone associated to Corinthians know if they’ll be competing in the cup? After their no show last week.
More to the point, will they be bothering to go down to Woff for the last league match?

Emphatic win for us at Ribb today seven tries to one, we scored two early converted tries and then got our coach binned for backchat. Bramley then kicked two penalties to get within eight points.
Second half we started fast and soon scored two converted tries to give us our bonus. Bramley threatened mainly through their dangerous full back but our forwards were in the ascendency in the tight and scored another three tries to one from Bramley to give us a convincing win.
Fair play to Bramley who brought two teams on a bus trip and ran our Stags to two points in a close game. We wish them well in their next game and I am sure they will be ok.
It was good to meet Mr Caravan Man who will , I hope, confirm that DR Rucks assertion that we would save money and not entertain the Bramley masses was wide of the mark, and we helped in staving off Anorexia for the Bramley hierarchy for at least another two days.
Good day for two good rugby clubs.
I'm told you've now got your money back from Yorkshire?

The explanation provided doesn't seem to make anything clear. Only one vacancy to be filled above in the championship. How does a reprieve at every division below tie up?

Can anyone clarify if its just a straight 5 points for getting a walkover. Is there any points difference awarded. a 25 - 0 win is somewhere at the back of my mind.
Straight 5 points to the 'winner'. -5 points to the team crying off. Declared a 0-0 result. If, at the business end of the season the points for/against come into play, then relevant adjustments will be made.

Promotion will likely be settled today.

The relegation battle must be the closest and most exciting for years. Although Glossop down, Crocs, Brid and Scarborough are all more or less winning consistently.

Need to keep an eye on Stockton in R2N as it's looking possible that only one going down from our league. If we've read the revised regs correctly the team finishing 13th with the best record will not be relegated. Currently that's Old Crocs ahead of Stockton.

Anyone got a view on that?? The email was very confusing.
There's only one additional promotion spot (to replace Jersey), so surely the trickle down effect will only be relevant to the division/leagues affected by which team takes that extra promotion spot. Currently it won't be a team from the Northern division.

I have tried and left two messages at the county office, but so far no response. Suppose they are getting their story together so us plebs are kept in the dark. It may or may not be true but that is what it feels like. A closing of the ranks.
Dawn doesn't work there full time.

Thanks Stella. We have not received said email!!!!!
Hence the suggestion to take it up directly with Dawn.

              still waiting for a response you, you seemed happy to quote what had happened, and then accuse our Hon Sec of keeping our club in the dark, to which she took exception and rightly so, (which is definately not the case) its loose comments such as yours that can cause issues amongst volunteers. I think it would be much more proactive if you could explain why some clubs did not receive the email, in the first place, rather than cast aspertions around a very hard working club secretary, that anyone who knows Lucy will, I think, agree with.
I look forward to your response or will you be like others and hide behind your anonymity and simply throw hand grenades over the garden fence.
An annoyed Flagman.
No further action to be taken regarding the meeting referred to earlier has the email was definitely sent and many clubs did respond. Not one club put forward an alternative candidate for the role. Most clubs just vote by proxy for the nominated candidates.
According to the Handbook, YRFU do indeed have the email addy for Lucy and this would suggest you have her named on GMS. The emails go out on a group post/mail, not individually.
Might i suggest you contact Dawn Rathmell, the YRFU Secretary direct to get to the bottom of this? Afterall, if one email has gone missing, have others?

Just so everyone is aware and no malicious rumours swirl around. We have decided with heavy hearts to concede our Trophy semi final against Bramley this coming Saturday. The biggest reason is that we have a, hitherto, unprecedented six players in the U20s county squad on Sunday that at a stroke wipes out almost half our team. With another couple of injuries from Saturday at Yarnbury we have reluctantly decided that our aim of promotion this season has to take precedence. It is the first time that I am aware that Ribb has done this but I just wanted to post the truth on here before the rumour mongers go into overdrive. Another consideration was that the final was 6 weeks after the league season ends and we would have had seven players unavailable due to Cricket commitments. Why Can the cup comps not be played before the regular season ends like it used to be.?? A six week gap is far from ideal in my opinion. Can I just say that we wish Bramley all the best for the final and apologies again from us.
To add insult to injury, the game was called off due to waterlogged pitch.

Just to confirm, it’s published as Abbeydale. As mentioned previously, too many clubs don’t read the posted information.

Thanks Stella,
                    lets hope their independence comes through and there is a re-run. Would Salem second my proposal if that happened?
I have to stay neutral on that for a couple of reasons. I know we as a club got the email on the 2nd, i have a copy of it.
Wait to see what happens. It's surprising how many clubs overlook notifications. However, something caused the meeting to be held. What i can say is those involved at the meeting are held in the highest regard.
