The Chief executive of the RFU, Bill Sweeney, was a guest of the club at the game last weekend against Rams.

Without exception, you always learn more from a...

He stated that making the journey to outer space, along with other scientific endeavours, were choices his administration were undertaking “not because they are easy, but because they are hard.

Things were made considerably tougher in the build-up to the game with Robbie weeks pulling up following a hamstring tweak on Thursday night, and Henry Clement succumbed to sickness the morning of the game. With such short notice, Albion...

Read more ›Match Report – Plymouth Albion 8 Rosslyn Park 37 Report by Paddy Marsh Photography by David Cunningham In their first competitive match for 536 days, Plymouth Albion with nine players making their debuts were well beaten by a Rosslyn Park side who are one of the favourites to win National 1. Playing with a strong wind behind them in the first half Albion took an early lead and were very much in the game at half time trailing by only three points.
