Read more ›Report by Rob Kershaw Photography by David Cunningham Plymouth Albion overcame the stern test of Bishop’s Stortford to pick up their second consecutive victory at home in a 31-17 National League One win. Stortford arrived having won four of their opening 14 league games this season, making for what was expected to be a close encounter. On a bitterly cold, atrociously wet, and miserable day, questions were raised as to whether the game would go ahead. The pitch was damp, with standing water and one of the corners of the pitch was extremely waterlogged. Following a pitch inspection by the...
Read more ›Plymouth face a pivotal fixture this weekend with the visit of Bishops Stortford to the Brickfields as they start the reverse fixture programme in National League One. The game at the Hertfordshire based club back in September was heart-wrenching for the Albion faithful to say the least. Three second half yellow cards from Albion saw a 3-19 half time lead relinquished, as Bishops scored 29 unanswered points to snatch a 32-19 win! Since then, this weekend’s visitors have had an equally frustrating season and sit just two spots above Albion in the league, having played one game more game. Following...

Read more ›Against a spirited Albion side, Taunton stole the west country bragging rights in the battle of Somerset and Devon this weekend. In a free-scoring game, the men from Veritas Park took an early lead that, barring a purple patch in the second half, never looked like losing. The game kicked off on a cool but clear day and the home side were the first to hit their straps, opting against taking the points for a sequence of catch and drives against the Ocean Cities finest. Manfully, Albion put in a succession of strong defensive sets but it felt like, unless...
Read more ›We’re sad to report that a member of Leeds Tykes has returned a positive COVID test and the team have been advised by the RFU not to travel. Unfortunately, we have been left with no choice but to postpone the game. All tickets will be valid for the rescheduled game or we can issue refunds via Eventbrite. THE GOOD NEWSYou are welcome to join us in the Old J Marquee from 14:40 for a lively Q&A with head coach Damian Welch, and then party the afternoon away with Angel Flukes who is performing with her band from 16:00.

Read more ›Match report by Peter Redmond / Photography by David Cunningham Plymouth Albion bounced back from last week’s narrow defeat at Tonbridge with a dominant 49-22 victory over Darlington Mowden Park at Brickfields in National League One. Albion overwhelmed their opposition in an inspired display, scoring seven tries to the Sharks four, to lift themselves out of the bottom two in the table. Head coach Damien Welch was delighted with the performance in front of an appreciative home crowd before a crunch match at home to Leeds Tykes next week. He said: “Everything we discussed during the week as a group,...
Read more ›Albion v Darlington Mowden Park – Saturday 4th December Plymouth Albion’s topsy turvy season starts a defining run as the midseason approaches with the visit of Darlington Mowden Park this weekend. With a similarly punishing travel schedule, the team from the far Northeast have had an equally tough start to the season with just one win more on the log than the Ocean Cities finest and they will certainly be targeting their visit to the Brickfields. Of note, and perhaps quite ominous for Albion, is the fact DMP have won four of their last six games. Like Albion, this includes...
Read more ›Albion agonisingly short in basement battle Written by Chris Bentley Bill Murray plays a weatherman stuck in a time loop, unable to escape from repeating the same day in the seminal film ‘Groundhog Day’. It is a difficult scenario for his character to overcome as he suffers the same day over and over again. After the loss this weekend at basement club Tonbridge Juddians, it’s fair to say Albion are currently stuck in a Groundhog Day of their very own. Having travelled up the day before, Albion arrived at the Slade in fine fettle and ready for what was always...
Read more ›High stakes game for Albion Written by Chris Bentley It certainly wasn’t in the grand plan at the beginning of the season but there is no doubt Plymouth Albion face a must win game this weekend as they visit Tonbridge Juddians. Having lost their last 7 games, the London based club have found life tough in their debut National One season. Indeed, a solitary win against Sale and draw with Bishops Stortford are their only positive results of the term. Nonetheless, Juddians are only five points in arrears as they do like to score and have been picking up a...
