It would normally take months, if not years of training to get into peak condition ready for a match in Toulon, yet there we were with only a fraction of that time to prepare! RC Toulon has numerous rival supporters’ clubs who are incredibly sociable and hospitable to travelling fans, and who wanted to host … Continue reading A Weekend in Provence

Well, the Paddy’s Day game against Northampton Saints didn't produce the result that we all wanted, but I thought the Club put on a great day. A crowd of over 15,000 shows that move to Brentford is starting to pay off. There was so much going on both inside and outside the stadium. For our … Continue reading Programme notes for Harlequins

How are we all feeling about the team? Whilst three draws are very unusual, we were just one kick away from winning two of those matches. The moment Paddy Jackson’s kick hit the post to win the match against Sale was about as dramatic as it gets! A heart stopping moment! We seem to either … Continue reading Programme Notes for Newcastle

Well, who would have thought it? Two home games on successive weekends! From a personal point of view, I prefer the fixtures to be spread out more over the season. The fixtures tend to be like buses, you wait ages for one and then two turn up at the same time! We looked good for … Continue reading Programme Notes for Gloucester
