Sale FC Rugby Team Announcement
A two-day trip for the boys, travelling most of the way Friday and then finishing the journey Saturday morning from Exeter to Plymouth.. Both Plymouth and Sale FC Rugby are at the wrong end of the table, but, as with last weeks game against Esher, we’ve only won one more game than Plymouth.
Just to correct an error! it appears we’ve played Plymouth three times in the 1980’s and 90’s in Courage League 2.
This weekend sees the return of Chris Owen to the lineup, and Ryan Parkinson swapping with Tom Ailes in the Number 8 position. After a two try performance last week, Neil Briggs starts at hooker.

Match Report for Sale FC Rugby vs Esher
Sale v Esher December 1st2018
Sale FC hosted Esher at the CorpAcq stadium on a gloomy Saturday afternoon.
The visitors were soon on the score sheet with a penalty kick slotted home by Esher fly half Paul Roberts on 3 minutes.
Sale responded quickly with a try in the corner from winger Paulo Odogwu, capitalising on a strong run from Elliot Hodgson and slick handling by Billy Wara. Matt Bradley narrowly missed the conversion attempt.
Within a minute, Esher regained the advantage when an ambitious pass from centre Jack Moorhouse was intercepted by fly half Roberts who ran clear from halfway to score under the posts. Roberts added the extra points to extend the Esher lead taking the score to Sale 5 Esher 10. read more here
