ColinMills 1,728 Posted June 8, 2014 could someone in rugby area arrange a social club to let us use on 5th july?....if someone can contact them, explain why we need use of a hall, at 2-3 in the afternoon, theres no way you will be refused, as the custom would be fantastic for drinks,, no club is overly busy between 2-3 oclock Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There is also the Roseycoombe Pub on the Rugby Road, just up from the stadium they used to run the Cocked hat and I'm sure would be very approachable. Next you have the Oak at Brandon...?? We seem to have posts going on three different threads which isn't too helpful, maybe we could get them merged? I think Falsedawns suggestion to get the supporters club on board is the right idea. They may know more than us about the situation with the club. But as it stands we don't have any true idea of what is actually going on with the club. That info is vital.
