18th Season In Charge

By Blues Ed
September 9 2022

Only hours to go before the big kick off with Blues in Coventry for the first game of the Championship. The RFU has deliberated and some Friday games are off but it looks like ours is on...

Coventry say:

Following the guidance of the Rugby Football Union, our first round Championship fixture against Bedford Blues will still take place, as scheduled this evening at Butts Park Arena.

With a respectful continuation of sport, the professional and community game will be bringing fans together to show their respect following the tragic death of Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II.

We are all deeply saddened by the news, and our thoughts and sincere condolences are with the Royal Family at this time. 

Gates will open, as scheduled, at 5pm before our 7.45pm kick off, and we look forward to welcoming you all to Butts Park ahead of our season opener. 

Thank you for your patience in this highly delicate matter. 

This is the squad Mike Rayer has selected as he starts his 18th season in charge. What a record.

Blues: 15. Matt Worley, 14. Seán French, 13. James Little, 12. Michael Le Bourgeois, 11. Dean Adamson, 10. Will Maisey, 9. Alex Day (Captain); 1. Joey Conway, 2. Jacob Fields, 3. Corrie Barrett, 4. Jordan Onojaife, 5. Alex Woolford, 6. Ollie Newman, 7. Charles Rylands, 8. Jac Arthur.

Reps: 16. Jack Hughes, 17. Monty Royston, 18. George Kloska, 19. Robin Williams, 20. Aaron Tull, 21. Jake Garside, 22. Louis Grimoldby, 23. Pat Tapley

Wrong decision, in my opinion. Somethings transcend sport.
