Kiddie Harriers are away so looks like a trip to 'the Glassboys' for me

All.  Don't forget Non League Day @ Rugby Town FC who will be playing at home in the FA Cup that day, plus we are playing Gornal/Shifnall Town where gate receipts will be shared so two non league clubs will benefit from your attendance. 

We have a seven a side tourney with teams from Leicester City, Coventry City, Northampton Town and Rugby Town competeing, with the winners taking home a huge cup presented on the main pitch at half time.  The tourney is free to enter as long as you come into the ground and watch the footie.  High standard of catering and an outside drinking licence means you can watch the footie and have a bevvy at the same time.  tourney will be played on state of the art 3g pitches.

A speed ball challenge will also be in action to measure the velocity of ones shooting. 

Come along and join us and don't forget to bring your flags and scarves....

To enter a team please ring 07865 094 814.  No charge.

Nice ground at Rugby, you can do train spotting from the top of the main stand when the game is boring (that's actual spotting of trains rather than injecting heroin, although I suppose you could do that as well).

Couple of very decent boozers in town but it's a fair trek from there to the ground.

Ha hahahah.  Mate.  New boozer just 500 yds from ground.

This pub is probably one of the best in the land which is a fifteen minute walk from ground.

Have you got any nutters? We don't do non-league grounds without nutters.

[cdbearsfan]

I thought you were going Dave? No problem on the nutter front then.

[Legion]

Can we export the one from the Walsall match last night?

[tomcrin]

Nutters by the dozen mate.  You boys/gals putting a side together then?  Cov in the final?  Gotta be done....

[cdbearsfan]

You expect us to play? Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.

Oh yes, forgot The Jolly Brewer, when I was down with Tamworth last season I didn't know it was there and consequently did all my drinking in The Squirrel and the Merchants, both fine establishments.

[tomcrin]

Tamworth eh?  Pre season, think we lost....

you enjoy your experience Dave?

[Dave Cooper please]

Tamworth won 3-2, McKenzie hat-trick.

Yes, it's a good ground for that level, but of course it was built when the old VS Rugby had money wasn't it?
