• I apologise for my abrupt nature. Last wednesday i had a conversation with joe in the pub, i told him that it was frustrating for me knowing that emmet was leaving, dt wasn't at souths that night and that souths had hardly any of the highest standard players coming anymore. We discussed this quite openly, he could even see my position. I've always been supportive of joe, emmet and i even asked him if he would like to play with us in cambridge, why would we do that unless we thought it would be fun or that he could hold his own?
    Yesterday i asked a simple question whether i would be welcome because the first line of his post immediately excluded me and a host of other people, people that joe know's i find it frustrating to not see south more often. I was told in no uncertain terms that no i was not welcome and then rather patronisingly only if i played a certain way.
    This was picked up by a host of others sensibly and some people pointed out the disparity, the exclusivity and the fact that there are other nights already organised that will return in the winter months. Admittedly more articulately and calmly than I. Some left their displeasure in a single line and others ignored the whole point of the thread and went to play anyway.
    Gabes if you want to play internet policeman, then you shouldn't write deliberately inflammatory things and obviously side with people. You also shouldn't write to me on my email address about things that are not in the thread and are not on topic. If you don't want to speak to me as a friend, then don't write to me on a personal level, It's not friendly and its extremely invasive. Equally Joe, you know full well, why this frustrated me, because we chatted that i don't get enough polo, that downs is really far, (20 miles there and back) … and then you exclude me, when i have always included you. I have encouraged you to play polo when you used to laugh at this silly little game, you thought the secret polo society thread was funny, you know that it was a joke and you know full well that it was about trevor. We laughed about it in the pub together and now you use it as a weapon because it suits you. Don't be a different person on the internet stage than you are to my face joe, don't tell me, 'yeh we need to get more northies down to newt', then tell me i can't play.
    Pique, went and played yesterday and ignored your silly thread, he is sensible and far less reactionary than I, I applaud him for that. I don't think he ruined your night, and is clearly an A cat. Hopefully his presence puts this thread in perspective. I apologise for swearing, if someone could post an appropriate tune, i'll >>>>>>>
