Indeed, probably written by a junior member of staff and not proof checked by their senior.

Gentleman, thank you

Season running right till the end of June. Fair to say much of the rugby will be played during better weather months which will suit us.

The purist who will enjoy forwards grinding it out in the winter mud wind and rain will not be happy.

What is the point of bringing the South Africans into the league this year as the way covid is spreading over there the chances of games against them are increasingly remote. I am not interested in another disrupted season and when we don't even know the extent to which the stadium will be opened up for spectators I think I will give my season ticket a pass this year. I paid £65 last season for club membership and to be honest it was a total waste of money.

Now is the time to live with Covid. If all concerned are vaccinated then no current variants will increase hospitalisation or deaths. The unvaccinated are a potential incubator for new variants. Life has to go on now.

Find it incredible that professional sports athletes haven't been given priority in receiving the vaccine, really all the teams and their staff in the URC need to be vaccinated.

Priority can only be based on vulnerability. There would have been a major uproar if professional sport was able to jump the queue.
