Last updated : 05 December 2009 By Covsupport News Service/JD

Coventry Rugby Club ended what has been a dramatic few days with a 15-15 draw against Bedford tonight at the Ricoh Arena.

Cov, who are now in administration and homeless, trailed 12-0 at the break to tries from Ollie Dodge (5 mins) and Liam Roberts (40 mins) plus a conversion from Myles Dorrian after a fight had seen Bedford down to 13 players and Coventry fourteen.

In the second half, the crowd of 1306 saw Coventry hit back, playing the better rugby, with James Hall getting a try in the 62nd minute and then two from Arron Carpenter, the second in stoppage time (65 mins & 80 mins) after Dorrian had kicked a 43rd minute penalty, earned a draw.
