Purdy in for Welsh.7.45pm KASSAM STADIUM The Kassam Stadium (also known as the United Stadium) is the home of Oxford United F.C., and is named after the ground's owner and the football club's former chairman, Firoz Kassam. The ground currently has a capacity of 12,500, and consists of three stands. L WELSH v C PIRATES LONDON WELSH make one change for the second leg of the Championship final tonight as they look to protect their 16-point lead over the Cornish Pirates The Cornish Pirates are a British professional rugby union team who play in National Division One of the English rugby union league, and are the premier Cornish rugby club. .Captain Jon Mills moves to flanker to replace Lee Beach, with Martin Purdy getting a start in the second row. As it stands whoever wins can't be promoted to the Premiership as their grounds do not meet the minimum criteria but Welsh are appealing against the RFU's decision last week to reject their plan to play Premiership matches at the Kassam Stadium in Oxford next season. |
