Round 1
Predictions Nottingham 0-5 Ealing - Banker Amptill 3-3 Donny - 5-2 either way more likely but one of my ties of the round Cov 5-1 Blues - At Home even without a full house Cov to win in a high scoring match Hartpury 4-1 Mond Could go either way but Salad to score at least two tries for Students Pirates 2-5 Sarries I hope it's the other way Howay you Pirates you do well when I predict you to lose. Jersey to keep a clean sheet and draw the bye Nil points each. Stay safe and support your teams anyway you can. ------------- Dont kick it. Pick it up and GO FORWARD. |

Round 1 Predictions Nottingham 0-5 Ealing - Will win most games, have played half a season already Ampthill 1-4 Donny - As above, Donny are full time and will be too slick Cov 4-1 Blues - Cov strong at home, Bedford will be exciting but lack forward power to stop the dreaded rolling maul Hartpury 4-0 Mond - Two quiet teams so far, will depend on imports for H and how ready Richmond are Pirates 0-5 Sarries - Pirates will be up for it, their Cup Final, and one of Sarries hardest fixtures but now its serious cannot see too many getting close |

Round 1 Predictions Nottingham 0-5 Ealing - Ealing have a huge, professional squad and 9 games of preseason. Even if we have had trouble in Lady Bay in the past, I can't see it this week. Ampthill 1-4 Donny - Ampthill looked good against an experimental Blues side, but I like the refreshed Donny team from what I saw in the Championship cup. Cov 5-1 Blues - Cov strong at the Butts, and Blues still trying to get their squad gel based on what happened with Ampthill over the weekend. Hartpury 1-4 Mond - Richmond kept together a very good core, and I think that they'll be out for revenge. Pirates 1-5 Sarries - If anyone is going to surprise Sarries, then I think it will be Pirates at the Mennaye during the 6 nations, but I think that they fall just short. |

Nottingham 0-5 Ealing - Banker Ampthill 0-5 Doncaster - Donny too strong Cov 5-2 Bedford - High scoring game. Bedford’s attack will be as good as anybody’s this season and are capable of winning if keep penalty/error count down and compete at breakdown, but I’m living more in hope than expectation Hartpury 1-4 Richmond - Most attritional/closest game of weekend. Hartpury have had no pre season. Richmond to edge it. Pirates 0-5 Sarries - Sorry, don’t think this will be as close as some people predicting. This is proper season now and Sarries will win this comfortably with or without England players. Pirates capable of losing try bonus if Sarries have game sewn up. ------------- Championship Prediction League Winner 11/12 |

Nottingham 0 - 5 Ealing Ealing will want to set their stall out Ampthill 1 - 5 Donny Could be high scoring Cov 5 - 2 Bedford Lots of tries in this one Hart 5 - 1 Richmond. Students(?) full of running Pirates 1 - 5 By gathering some insider info they put Jersey to the sword and score line didn’t reflection the match. BUT this will be different. Alex Day will give the Sarries boys all the inside info. Saracens to put their own marker down. Unfortunately also think across the games we will see 3 red cards for high/head tackles

I understand Hartpury had a runout against a Glaws xv the other day. I tend to agree, having seen them take a decent Cov side apart, that Sarries will be comfortable winners here too. ------------- Our Club |

Ampthill 0-5 Doncaster Amps lacking grunt up front and missing game breakers behind Cornish Pirates 0-5 Saracens Sarries cant afford to slip up so their squad should reflect that Coventry 5-1 Bedford Bedford struggled against average Ampthill so Cov off to a flyer Hartpury 1-4 Richmond Bargain basement clash so hard to predict Nottingham 0-5 Ealing Trailfinders should hit their straps comfortably |

Nottingham 0-4 Ealing Ampthill 5-2 Doncaster Coventry 5-2 Bedford Hartpury 1-4 Richmond Pirates 0-5 Saracens Being an Ampthill supporter I am probably slightly bias and optimistic, but I am loving how everyone is predicting them to finish either 9th, 10th, or 11th. There is no pressure, no relegation, and ten more games to adjust to this level. Other teams beware. Me. I am loving the ride. |

Can’t remember the last time I did the predictions, or indeed post on the forum. Well it’s been that long that I forgot my login details so I’m back on with a slightly altered name, but not much!. Looking forward to the season!. Predictions: Nottingham 0 5 Ealing - Trailfinders have set their stall out already with beating Sarries twice, comfy away win. Ampthill 0 5 Doncaster - By all accounts Donny looked decent in pre-season so I think we should get a good win here. Coventry 5 2 Bedford - Bedford always good in attack so I expect a points-fest with Cov narrowly squeaking it. Hartpury 4 1 Richmond - no idea really, a stab in the dark. Cornish Pirates 4 1 Saracens - First match shocker for fallen giants. ------------- Donny Knights - best team in Yorkshire |

Nottingham 4-1 Ealing - Nottingham have nothing to lose, are at home and fresh. Ealing are under huge pressure to challenge Sarries, away from home at a ground where they seldom win and are probably tired after all those pre season matches... Ampthill 0-5 Doncaster. Donny get the only away win of the round. Coventry 4-0 Bedford. Cov seem strong and Bedford are a scratch side. Hartpury 4-1 Richmond. Could go either way so home advantage. Pirates 5-2 Saracens. Why not? Ealing beat them twice and they won't have their stars. ------------- Forever Green. |

Nottingham 0-5 Trailfinders - Big win Amptill 0-5 Knights - Knights strong this year and a significant pre-season Coventry 5-1 Blues - Should be interesting Hartpury 1-4 Richmond - No idea on this fixture . . . would like Richmond to right the wrong of two seasons ago. Pirates 0-5 Saracens - A big win . . no half measures now. Lets hope for no injuries, no red cards and no French refs :-) ------------- Run with it |

Nottingham 0 Ealing 5 Can't see how a team that's been assembled in the blink of an eye will get anywhere near the ambitious TF's
Ampthill 0 Doncaster 5 Donny been getting ready for this for months! Coventry 5 Bedford 1 Tryfest! Hartpury 1 Richmond 4 Lottery game of the round - anything could happen! Pirates 0 Saracens 5 Much as I would like to say otherwise just can't see Pirates scoring 4 tries or getting within 7 points of Sarries

| Admittedly there is still 15 minutes to go but I have just checked. With Hartpury winning 38-10, no-one has forecast a 5-0 points forecast for this fixture. What do we know? |

So far the Coventry tryfest has not happened A relived Bedford follower ------------- The older I get, the more the RFU leave me confused. |

Feel the most happy about getting the Pirates v Saracens result correct!. Massive shot in the arm for Championship rugby and it will do wonders for Pirates as a club. Saracens lost twice to Ealing in pre-season but I think the result today is far more embarrassing for them. That was a team still packed full of top drawer players who by the sounds of it got properly turned over. ------------- Donny Knights - best team in Yorkshire |

We need a couple more teams to do this and then it is all up yours PRL and RFU co-conspirators. So pleased for Pirates (sorry for doubting you boys) ------------- Onward and Upwards C'mon Donny! |

| Apart from Sarries which current Championship teams have facilities satisfactory for promotion? |
Posted By: castleparknight
Date Posted: 06 Mar 2021 at 17:47

You overlook alternative facilities e.g. Keepmoat for Donny Knights etc. For clubs who want to go up they do have that as a choice. We did have plans that would have had Castle Park up to standard by the end of November with Keepmoat approved for use up to then....and I am sure Ealing will have, Pirates may have options....
