Report: | Hello sports fans and welcome to 2025, like a well stuffed Turkey the second team waddled onto court to face the #2 team in Div 1. The away fixture was a rather one-sided affair, with Steve McGarrett asking Danno to "book-him" Hawaii 5-0 style! However, the portent looked good as we claimed a W/O at 5, so 3-0 and yet to play! Though the fat lady then stopped singing and things went a bit pear. Second strings up first and like a bad Chinese Joke, Lee Lee, locked horns. Shot making of the highest order from both players. The man in pink playing like a number 1, even though he is actually a number 2, but hey, why worry about the playing order. A 1-3 loss for the mercurial LJ, if this Billy Bunter esque player could get fit, wow! Next up, Bagel Boy Delaney and El Capitan. The old hand oozed class and was 2-0 up before you could say, banana skin. Meanwhile MD was making mincemeat of his opponent only dropping a game due to, in his own words, "hitting 12 tins" which is impressive with PAR 11!! 2-1 up, could Ambrose seal victory against the diminutive Tim King, or could he snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. The list of idioms and cliches is a path well worn and I could carry on until the cows come home, suffice to say it ended badly, even with 2 match balls. Sport is a fickle mistress etc etc. Victory now rested on the willowy frame and narrow shoulders of Timothy Taylor Johnson. The crowd settled in, anticipating an epic. In reality, If this was a boxing match a towel would have been thrown on court after the knock up. Not so much one-sided, more dodeca-sided, if that metaphor can be applied without syntactically ruining the sentence. A disappointing 2-3 loss. On a positive note the CCC was marked 10/10 with little Timmy asking "please Sir, may I have some more" with everyone fully satiated and Ambrose waltzing off into the sunset having retaken top spot in the Chilli Challenge, Life is good. |
