Wow, you clearly know a lot about the 'Quins! On what facts do you base your 'sour grapes'? Why would we want your ground? We arent having the best season, but we'll be ok - form is temporary, class is permanent! As for our coach Matt, he's doin just fine thanks...! 2 League Wins and a County Cup in 4 seasons. Yep, he's doing a terrible job......

I am a development manager for the Oxfordshire area working for a company called Rugby Evolution. The company was set up by Paul Grayson, Brett Taylor and Jonny Wilkinson. We are currently spreading throughout Oxfordshire and I am looking for coaches to run the afterschool clubs. If you have any sixth formers or students (or anyone else) who would be interested in some work we are able to come down to your club to give an induction to all those interested. We can also put those who aren't qualified on courses. The pay rate is �20 per hour.

My number is 07796271319. If anyone is interested please ask them to call or email me.

Many thanks
Tim Holgate

Hello Guys and thanks for your generosity -- Hugy, 02:09:40 01/29/05 Sat [1]

Hello Chaps!

Happy New Year to you all and many successes to the club this season and the following ones.
I had many messages relayed by Julien (The Frog that come trumps all the time, if he is not sin binned) and I thank you very much for them.
Apparently he is running again (like a Diesel engine, slow but powerful from what he told me...).
I hope you all had a relaxing break and came back relaxed and ready to roar on the pitch again.
I am not going to mention the six nations and the usual rivalry and banter that will arise in the club as the competition devellops. I am sure it will be interesting.

Just to let you know that I miss you all and I also miss the decent beer (Here in Frogland they do not seem to be able to fathom how to create a decent Ale, luckly enough we can have some Guiness).

All the best and if you want to drop me a line you can do so at: hugues.augier@excite.com

Cheers (he says with a glass of wine in his hand...)

Many thanks for the send-off and the shirt at the Christmas party. Best of luck for the future.

I'm now set-up in Victoria on Vancouver Island with a car and job, and we're starting to look for a house now.

It looks like there's several rugby clubs in town so I'll be joining one soon. Rugby is pretty big in this part of Canada.

My email address is daviesrw@hotmail.com so drop me a line if you are ever thinking about coming to this part of the world.

Oxfordshire Nomads/Oxford RFC History -- Tubby Tyrrell, 04:19:15 07/14/04 Wed [3]

This is a note for any older members or relatives who may just be looking in to see how things are going at the Club.
I am researching and writing a book on the club's history, and am currently writing in 1948 and looking in 1950/51. Any old photographs of this time, and pre war, would be very much appreciated, returned, and credits given. The 'history' will probably be in two parts, the first being from 1909 and beyond, up to 1959. I can be contacted by e mail or telephone or message at the club.
Regards
