Ah, Good old Ratcliffe College. I attended Longslade Upper school in the late 60's and also played 1st XV and used to enjoy the matches we had against them. We usually won which used to annoy the college boys because Longslade was an early 1960's state school! (Perhaps they thought they looked down on us - just like the huge 2nd rower that towered over me but by better technique (without the lifting/supporting that is allowed now) I won every lineout against him - even on the college throws!! Basking now in days of glory long gone! Peter Holmes Western Australia. Skype ; p.g.holmes [HOLMES (Witham on the Hill, Manthorpe, Spalding, Pinchbeck, Donington then Leicestershire)].
