Thanks as ever CRFC.

Been worrying so far comparing last season's results with this, but I see from the second half of November to mid-January, our results from last season in those fixtures would be:
W 1
D 3
L 7

So if there's anytime to do a bit of making up (or hopefully overtaking) of last season it's then.

by **CRFC Hammer** on Mon Oct 02, 2017 1:15 pm

Agree Dodger,

The remainder of this seasons fixtures month by month compared to the corresponding result last year
October = 3 games - 7 points
November = 4 games - 1 point
December = 7 games - 4 points
January = 4 games - 8 points
February = 3 games - 4 points
March = 4 games - 6 points
April = 4 games - 1 point
May = 2 games - 1 point
All is not lost on the Benchmark front :scarfer:

Given how disappointing last season was it's really something that after nine games we are now nine points worse off. Will we end up dreaming wistfully of a return to the results of 16/17?
