Not only us that think that, most Champ league games are pretty
dire quality, which makes a lot of comments about being kept out
of the Prem by some of the Champ clubs utterly pathetic.
Also taking a coach from the Champ would be a stupendous gamble.

Also on the 18th of March an important match for our women’s
development, with the university of Surrey looking to be
promoted to WBSR, Ealing, Exeter, Hartpury, and Loughborough all
have affiliated universities in the WBSR.

Hope not. His CV isn't that impressive for what we need. We've
been burnt too many times giving the job to someone without much
of a pedigree or success

Funny, in the Champ we find the £30m Prem clubs are paid
compared to the £160k Champ clubs get paid utterly pathetic when
so called rugby fans think Champ clubs have any opportunity to
play at Prem level.

The Champ clubs play friendlies against Universities.
In the ones I have seen, the students run around a lot, only to
be shut down by the club forwards.
The last Cambridge club fixture I can find against a BUCS side
was in 2022 - when we were still in Nat 1 but on our way to
promotion - when we beat Durham 33 - 27, albeit neither side was
at full strength.
Now BUCS may have got better, but Exeter and Loughborough both
have Saturday sides that are in the relegation places in
National League 2 West.
BUCS may well be closer to the Quins spirit - lots of throwing
the ball around, while the Chump was traditionally more about
big packs rumbling the ball up.

You think Prem clubs should get more? Confusing
