Quote: brooker "We had to fold the 2nd team at the start of last season as we couldnt get a team when we lost half the 1st team to Thatto Heath which crippled the 2nds and we were struggling the season before that for a team in division 2 as alot have retired.We are basically a brand new team as the 1st and 2nd team have had a big influx of players I dont think the nwc think we would get a team this season so they put us in division 6.
I personally like this division as quite a few of us cant train due to work,familys and coaching kids and im not getting any younger so its just about a game and a pint on a saturday for me,but on another note our game last week against Folly Lane was just as hard as a division 2 game and when i played in this division 8 years ago is was very much pub rugby and getting your head knocked off week in week out, fair play to every team ive played they all seem like a good bunch of lads.
As of yesterdays game we were phoning round trying to get a team as we had 8 players missing so there will be weeks when we are struggling like all other teams are.'"
which half of the 1st team left for thatto, about 3 i think.
