Robbery on our turf - of turf.

The grass is always greener around the fire hydrant.

In the early hours of last Tuesday morning (18th October), thieves made off with several rolls of artificial grass from the new pitch construction.

Using a JCB from onsite, the criminals managed to damage parts of not only our own Clubhouse but also that of Saracens RFC as they made their way over the 2nd XV pitch and through the dividing hedge on several trips.

Our damage includes smashed security lighting and CCTV, the car park flood lights, the main gates and corner gate, outdoor wooden furniture and the Wanderer's pitch.

Please bear with us as we work with the insurers to replace the car park lights - if you are at the Club after dark, bring a torch!

If you are offered a 'maintenance free lawn solution' on your door step - let us know!
