Been wondering whether or not to run an 1895 comp. Now realise that the term “Cup Challenge” can bring the new Cup under the same umbrella.

[sizeSO [/size

We are in for a Round D that will be staggered over almost a full week with a Challenge Cup QF this coming Thursday and at least one 1895 game the following Wednesday.

Info is a bit hard to come by. Auntie Beeb seems to be ignoring the minor Cup (surprise, surprise!), but Bongser will do his best to find fixtures & results for you.

In the words of Paul Weller, “THAT’s Entertainment!”

As soon as the first CCup QF is decided, Bongser intends to begin summarising. Further results will be later edited into the same post (multiple edits) so that this thread doesn’t become a dog’s dinner!

“Well they’ve got a very good bass section, mind, but no top tenors, that’s for sure.”

Speaking as we SHOULDN'T BE of top "tenners" the Zulus didn't even make the Billboard Hot 100 until Paul Simon's (beltin') "Gracelands" album.
