Cat 2 to a cat 1 club. Makes sense :wink: Clearly impressed by our Wycombeness ;-) Wycombe don’t have an academy. Only just started the process of applying for cat 4 status. It will be the latent Readingness and reputation of our academy that is the allure. Plus the fact that they were scholars and...

U 21’s fixtures now on RFC website- took me contacting the club to make it happen
Most home games are at the SCL (6) with some at Bearwood (3) and a match at Aldershot in January and probably our home PL Cup fixtures will be at Aldershot as well when they are announced.

I am not expecting any coverage from the opening PL 2 match at Norwich KO 7pm at all from the club - which...
