The Saints

The Saints are the Northampton rugby team. Having gone through some rough patches, including most recently relegation during the 2007/2008 season (they completed the year in National Division 1 with an unprecedented 35 wins from 35 games), they have rapidly come back through the combined powers of Jim Mallinder, Dorian West and Paul Grayson, alongside a strong combination of youth and experience.

Goodbye

Much to my surprise I have just realised that the London Irish match last Saturday was my last "proper" match of the season.  I thought I had at least one more, and if we were lucky two.  But the play-offs next weekend are on Sunday and we already have tickets for the Windsor Horse Show (summer activities sneaking in).  If we manage to beat the Sarries then the final is at Twickers but we can't go to that because it is "A"s birthday party.  I am left feeling rather bereft, I didn't say goodbye to the team or Franklins Gardens.  We can dull the pain slightly as we are going to the IRB Sevens at Twickers, but it won't be the same.

No-one text me the results, we will be recording and watching in the evening!
