On permit for Newport RFC @PhillipSargent

Today we had a permit player from high flying Bedwas, and as it happens I know him.

Many years ago he was was one of my apprentices and after a few years he left to go on to bigger and better things. During our working career we had our ups and downs as most people do, but i had a feeling he would do good as he had this confidence about him.

It was good to see him in proper colours for a change, as he warmed up he came over, shook my hand and we exchanged a few pleasantries. He eventually came on to lend his weight to the pack, but not even that could prevent an inevitable draw with the surprise package of the season, Llandovery.

Good luck in the future Flapper, although i don't think you'll need it.
