Ampthill Extras 31 - Old Albanian Gladiators 26

It's been a while since the Extras ran out onto a Dillingham Park pitch for a home match and not even the weather could dampen the excitement levels within the squad at the prospect of doing so.

Extras hosted Old Albanians' Gladiators, a team that have recently risen through the ranks of the HMMT league structure.

There was also a very welcome return for what is left of Extras & crowd favourite Adam Wilson.

Extras & Gladiators slugged it out for the full 80 mminutes, and despite the rain-sodden conditions there were some great displays of good rugby to keep the hardy fans entertained.

Harpenden Squad 56 - Ampthill Extras 21

Despite setting off north up the M1 to travel south to Hertfordshire, Lewis Cooper managed to arrive just before kick-off to give the Extras a squad of 28 to face a strong Harpenden club squad.

With microphoned match officials, a 4g pitch and a gathering crowd, it was a great setting to get back to playing rugby.
