Another cup final.

If you think that Leeds Carnegie is having a rollercoaster season then try to imagine what it is like to support Bristol. Totally underperforming all season & losing the Memorial Ground for redevelopment. For a club that, on paper, should be safely in the play-offs by now the season took another downturn when they gave up a 14 point lead at Moseley last weekend.

This had the knock-on effect of giving Leeds back its destiny. If we win all our remaining games then we are in the play-offs. Not an easy ask as we still have to go to Bedford! Still we start on Saturday with a trip to Moseley, scene of Bristol's downfall.

With our characteristic lack of consistency  anything can happen. Moseley have improved from the side we beat earlier in the season. Their pack, by all accounts, shoved Bristol off the park. The boys need to turn up. Diccon needs to keep faith with his fulltime players and, of course, we need to win !

Nervous!

OK so it is match weekend. We lost at Donny 2 weeks ago and now face a decent side, Cornish Pirates, at Cross Green on Sunday. I guess that being a Leeds Carnegie fan is somewhat akin to being a smackhead - you know it is not doing you any good but you just keep going back for more!

See you on Sunday!
