We arrived at Chester's ground looking forward to a rugby feast. Newly-promoted Chester had started the season unbeaten and were determined to keep their record. Sedgley Park had seen their season so far see-saw.
So, it is the start of October and with pre-season games, we have probably been back playing rugby for at least eight weeks. What does appear to be true is that Rugby is growing in popularity.
As the second week of National 2 North approaches, Preston Grasshoppers are preparing for their first home game of the season in an all Lancashire clash with Sedgley Park.
