Bicester RFC were yesterday promoted to Southern Counties without playing a match.
Captain Dan Spencer’s side were due to host Farnham Royal in their final BB&O Premier Division match today, knowing a bonus-point victory would clinch promotion.
However, Farnham cannot field a side for the clash, so Bicester were handed a walkover and the five points they needed to go up.
