  • A Brief History of GRFC
    A brief history of GRFC 1873-1981 The club was formed in 1873 after a meeting at the Spread Eagle Hotel with the announcement in the Gloucester Journal: "A football club (as rugby was then called) has been formed in this city - the season's operations begin at the Spa on the first Tuesday in next month." A team was then organised to play the College school. The match was actually played on the ground of the current Kingsholm. There were 11 games played during the club's 1876-77 season, the club winning 6, losing 2 and drawing 3. Gloucester Rugby Football Club had a successful run in the coming seasons, playing 15 games in both the 1877-78 and 1878-79 seasons, winning 10, losing 2 and drawing 3 both times. In the 1879-80 season Gloucester RFC played 17 games and lost just two. The following season was less successful, winning six of their 13 fixtures. In the 1882-83 season the team won 11 of their 14 games. The club was playing more fixtures as the decade continued, contesting 20 games in the 1884-85 season, and up to 34 in the 1891-92 season. The club left the Spa after an argument with the cricket club that they were ground sharing with. During the winter the Rugby Club had used a salt mixture to remove frost from the pitch, resulting in the death of the grass on the wicket. Gloucester RFC were no longer welcome at the Spa ground. They then acquired lands from the Castle Grim Estate for £4,000 in 1891 and have since resided in this place, now known as Kingsholm.

  • Skarb Fana Rugby
    SKARB FANA RUGBY SIX NATIONS 2021 WSTĘP Tylko 98 dni minęło od zakończenia poprzedniej edycji Pucharu Sześciu Narodów, a najlepsze euro- pejskie reprezentacje znów przystępują do rywalizacji. Wszyscy liczymy na interesujący turniej, choć czujemy też, że pod pewnymi względami już dawno hierarchia w elicie nie była tak wyraźnie ustalona jak właśnie w tym roku. Poza fanami Anglii i Francji cała reszta chciałaby, żeby o końcowym triumfie nie decydowała jednak bezpośrednia konfrontacja dwóch głównych faworytów na Twickenham, żeby odrodziła się Walia, żeby Irlandia grała z polotem, na który ją przecież stać, żeby szkockie gwiazdy rozbłysły pełnym blaskiem (ale żeby przy okazji nie oślepiły kolegów z drużyny) i żeby Włosi nie byli z definicji dostarczycielami pięciu punktów dla swoich rywali. Wynik sportowy jest oczywiście najważniejszy, ale równie ważnym jest, aby rozgrywki przeprowa- dzić płynnie i od początku do końca. Six Nations w czasach pandemii będzie doświadczeniem zupełnie wyjątkowym: bańki, w których muszą przebywać poszczególne kadry, restrykcyjne przepisy sanitarne, puste stadiony… Niby zaznajomiliśmy się z tym już jesienią, ale życzylibyśmy sobie zupełnie innych okoliczności. W takiej oto sytuacji oddajemy w Wasze ręce „Skarb fana rugby – Six Nations 2021”. W ostatnich latach podzieliśmy się kilkoma tego typu publikacjami, ale teraz wreszcie możemy mówić o skarbie kibica z prawdziwego zdarzenia. Udało mi się pozyskać przychylność osób, które zgodziły się napisać trochę o każdej z reprezentacji i uważam, że efekt jest lepszy niż
