Thanks Chris - we had a good weekend down in Cornwall didn't we? Shame we've never done it again. Also rememeber that Pirates cup win. Their fans (including our own) were sure that it was the begining of something. Shame. Sadly I don't think planning permission at Camborne was ever an option and their return to the Mennaye was forced upon them. S4C now lies in abeyance while the Premiership and the RFU look after number one. You talk a lot of sense about the Championship but far-sightedness is not a strength of the Premiership clubs.

I would love Leicester to have another friendly down there. Maybe the opening game in S4C? Closer to fruition if there was some collective zeal...

Thanks again Chris, ref the local Leicestershire clubs, I'm sure Leicester Lions funded all their development by selling some land for housing and did not take any of the RFU's funding.
