Today’s Football And Rugby Fixtures
Forget about everything coming down to the finish, or the start influencing how things go, it’s the heart of the season where most games are played, where most points are won or lost.
It doesn’t decide things but, my, this phase of the season is probably more important than the start or end, despite popular belief.
So this weekend has absolutely massive meaning to our sides. All bar three of our football and rugby sides are involved in battles at the top or bottom of the table. It could and should be another cracker.
