I went to this game today.
Must give real credit to the Northumbria Uni side for never giving up and always playing the game with the correct spirit.
We have all watched games where one side is getting a pasteing, then they start the rough stuff, but it was great to see that they did not lower themselves to this.
Well done bet theres some sore bodies at uni tomorrow.
Quote="richardviking"I don't know why everybody is so surprised at this result. Northumbria Uni lost by 132-0 at Blackpool in the Championship One last season.
You can only score using the points avaliable at the time of the game, so congratulations to Thorman on the World Record. West still hold the record for tries in a match though.

Congratulations to Chris and best wishes to both Matthews brothers.
