"D-Day" for the Dragons. The Newport RFC vote is tonight - 75% support needed to accept the WRU proposal/takeover. According to all the chat on twitter, it is not a sure thing even though a No vote would effectively see the RFC go out of business with the ground being sold to property developers, to cover as much of the existing liabilities.

Some of the shareholders see it as a glorified takeover by the WRU.

Pity. They are not worth a w-nk. Nearly as bad as Zebre

Worse than Zebre, at least the fans there are friendly

Interesting appointment by The Dragons with the news Bernard Jackman is coming in.

First things first Bernard, P45 for Kirchner and Henson. You've made a name for yourself keeping a team in the Top 14 on a comparitively low budget compared to the rest of the teams. Those two guys are a waste of your wage budget.
