WSM have won only one at home this season. Hope our win on Tuesday will in-still a bit more confidence in the side but Mel’s comments midweek suggested confidence has been pretty low so I would be happy with a point.

Bit chalk and cheese to compare admission prices for a club in Somerset to one inside the M25.

19 quid is a disgrace regardless

It's also £17 if you buy online. And you can buy online right up to the match, so even if you do make a late decision to go there's still no need to really pay the £19.

Genuine question, why should there be no comparison? Are the costs of running a team in WSM significantly lower than London? I know player wages in some regions are lower but is that the case at WSM? Or is it that the market won’t bear a higher price? Each club will have a slightly different structure e.g. own or rent their ground, on site/offsite training facilities, debt/no debt, size of population in catchment area which may mean that geography is not a true comparator. I suspect that most clubs look at the local and national competition and then take a view on whether there will be an overall higher yield from the overall pricing architecture on certain assumptions on attendances.

No Hall in the squad today but otherwise our strongest line up with Bloomfield starting.
