Old Polo Thread

I'm actually supposed to be out with work tonight, so if nobody much else shows interest i'm out for tonight...

yeh im out wit work to but thought i might go for a few drinks till 7 then join polo

is aldi car park as long or wide as ncp?
are the edges as annoying as the oxford road/sloping-ncp place

I'm noloing tonight sorry guys and gals

I'm noloing tonight sorry guys and gals

me too....

I can't either. working all bloody night!

sounds like we're all nolo today
Anyone other than me and ste up for coming to Leeds on Sunday?

yep im coming sunday

unlikely for sunday, i'm in sunderland overnight saturday. i'd like to play in leeds though

i think the UK's as qualifiers is as good a system as we're gonna get. the only fairer thing would be a ranking done over all competitive games like tennis rankings or ICC tables. but that's a bit OTT, unfeasible and not very polo-spirit.
one per city would be extremely harsh on london

in for leeds. What's the plan?

weather looks decent for tomorrow, so we'll be playing at hyde park.
here are the directions from the train station

the courts are the SW slab, not the tennis courts on the top corner near the BMX park

probably a good thing there's a decent MCR contingent coming over, since the leeds peeps may be iffy due to some students at home for easter. hopefully we'll have 9 or 10 all included though

Where's Powy's?

exactly! (it's not all about bleeding london), and powys is in wales........

How did it go in Leeds yesterday? Apologies for my no-show-lo, I was "cant stand up and shaking" hungover.

Was a really good day! only Josh turned out to play, Sam turned out later, but had great weather lots of good fast games, and everyone in Manchester is now very jealous of the Leeds polo court!

yeah thanks for coming all the way to leeds just to play polo with me boys! was a nice day with some great games on the big blacktop court

yeh it was an ace day, defo worth the trip just to play on that court! hope they dont put the tennis nets up too quickly!

Started a list here http://www.lfgss.com/thread39480.html#post1310871 for possible practise at Arcadia this Thursday, we need the numbers to make it cheap. Note this is only for numbers, I'll enquire tomorrow for availability of the place.

Tonights Polo?

I think Whitworth is going to be wet after last nights rain.... Can someone check later on..?

Perhaps we should re-visit Manley Park (possible slippy in the corners)? Platt Fields (too small & full of yoot)? Ghetto Court nr Saki bar (ball goes under fence lots of yoot)?

Opinions......

car park isn't the option then?

it can be.. just a bit bored of getting kicked out....

doesn't seem to be too many people around this week at the mo..

im Def in today i can check Whitworth at 5 but also down for some manley polo

i'll play today. also very bored of getting kicked out of car parks
