I just can't get my teeth into this season. Stop, start, cancelled etc. It just hasn't seemed real!

Have seen that Worcester have refused to move their fixture vs Wasps from the Sat 15th to Mon 17th May, citing that their players need the rest weekend scheduled... (they're not involved in any European rugby)

Very cynical IMO...

Given there’s no relegation this season seems a bit excessive.

Weren’t Worcester also one of the clubs that blocked moving games to the Euro gap that would have allowed more rest later in the season.

We never found out who that was, but I think its fair to say the speculation that it was Worcester seems stronger now.

Ballot applications for the Bristol match have been decided...!

I'm happy to say we'll be there on 5th June; very much looking forward to cheering the team on again. It won't be quite the full house the likes of Nadolo and Wiese deserve to welcome them, but at least it'll be something!

Will do mate don't worry!

Absolutely buzzing, not just for us lucky 8000 odd fans and the club but also those players like Wiese, Nadolo, Brink, Kelly, Moroni etc who have never experienced a Welford Road with supporters before. Counting down the days!
