Sudbury cancel... you'll never guess why!

The on-going injury crisis/series of increasingly remarkable coincidences/ staistical blip (delete as applicable) contines with Sudbury now having to cancel Sunday's fixture.

Until a couple of weeks ago it was looking like we were going to have to cancel, but after last weekend we looked to have something close to team (certainly with Ampthill's help anyway) - so this is a bit of a shame.

Not sure where we stand now - but in practice I suspect that a training weekend would be no bad thing. A few who played last weekend are still carrying injuries that are not fully healed, which might be okay against newcomers like Ampthill but against major opposition like Sudbury (or Basford, who were also likely to attend) risked being inflamed. With no major games now until the New Year (county game against Canada aside) we can now be reasonably confident of starting 2008 with a full team - something we have never come close to managing throughout this season to date.

As for what we do this Sunday... watch this space.
