Welcome Cup Break
By Blues Brother
October 10 2014
Nick Fenton-Wells takes his boys to darkest Cornwall intent on continuing the run which has seen us win the last two league games ..
The B&I cup game against Cornish Pirates gives the side the chance to continue to grow together. There'll be further opportunities with Cross Keys visiting next week ahead of the tricky trip to Doncaster.
That's a lot of cup rugby, and let's hope it doesn't take its toll in terms of injuries as the next league game is at Sixways against Worcester Warriors.

Speaking ahead of the game, Cornish Pirates' Director of Rugby Ian Davies said: “We are all aware that Bedford Blues take the Cup seriously and that they have a proud record in previous competitions.

Prediction was based on us winning the occasional scrum and a line out or two.
