Instead of tomorrow, as per calendar?

Calendar is wrong. Blame the Doctor.

Thanks for moving the game, Passed It. Could someone please update on the calendar? Cheers.

Le Bin Man ... I like that ... a righteous proletarian job. Join the SWP and get a real job. Start the revolution in the workplace and all that.

Now we are also waiting on the onion. I have tried pming fi, admittedly only on sunday... But starting to worry!

yep no response from any pm's or even filling in the doodle poll that i sent em at least a week ago, there arent many days that Hackney Goal Slotters can play this until the deadline now, if anyone sees either of the two uninjured pickled onions players could you tell them to get on with it!

Am sorry to miss the top of the table clash between HGS and skulls. It'd be great to hear a report back later on.

Ha! Work 4 hours a day and claim the rest on overtime or invoke the unions more like.

They all drive beamers these days, it's not the job it used to be.

hope you ok, heal fast man!

^^as per my pm I'm out of polo for at least a month, had a tangle with a taxi and came of worse. I have pm'd fiona and kit about a sub. You might be better off dealing with them, Barry

This sums it up pretty well:

...top of the table clash between HGS and skulls. ...

Results:

Skulls-HGS
Dan x2, Ali 3-1 Felix
Ian, Ali x4 5-2 Ben x2
Ian, Alix2, Danx2 5-0

Results didnt tell the whole story. It was evenly matched for the first to games. Chances aplenty for both sides, only difference is the conversion and very good defending from both sides, Ali was on fire with both passes and scoring, some amazing shots very fluid moves from both sides. Dan was briliant at blocking. Felix was brave with challenges, ol' Ali seems to be back on the courts with quick turns and shots/passes which was very pleasant to the eyes as a spectator/ref. Ian was very direct with his approach, a combination of speed and quick shots made him pretty deadly in getting the alll important first goal in the 2nd and 3rd games. Easy game to ref, clean games albeit plenty at stake. Felix played on my bike (yeah, yeah, my bike's shit... whatever...) as his rear wheel was taco-ed in the 2nd games and was comical at times and the game was pretty much Skulls's to lose.

Only complaint: No supporters. Me, Mira, Lish, Joni were the only non-match players present.

Positives: Aplenty. Both teams were attacking at every opportunity, which left HGS a bit exposed at times at a turnover, nice fluid games, very little to call 50/50 decisions aplenty. Nice link up play for both teams for the goals and both teams were very happy to play the shoulder without being dangerous. Brilliant defending from both side without the need for double D shutouts with Alexis, Felix, Dan and Ian repelling shots when in goal and keeping the ball when a team mate is down.

Just to remind...

Nice write-up, Ben... Gonna try and get down to Newt tonight, was feeling too poorly for polo last night...

You shouldn't munch on so much dick, then.

hahahah

Passed It vs Thumbs Up. Thumbs Up are unable to muster a team for the fixture before the deadline (Dean is injured, JohnH has bronchitis & Sandy has sold his polo bike). Do Passed It take the forfeit or can we get a fixture extension?

We haven't forfeitted yet, but yes, we are likely to.

I will be there tonight to ref and play...

BTW, I have a pump that somebody left on saturday.

Sandy sold his polo bike?

C'mon Thumbs Up, get it together. Let's give them an extension.

I think I speak for Passed It when I say that we would rather have an extension, but it's not up to us, and also Dean is not likely to be fit for a while, which more than likely means finding a replacement & a sub.

Maybe Mrak would sub.

I don't want any special rules for us, it's our fault if we can't play it before the 17th.

I'll speak to Dean, and see how far away he is, maybe we can play next Tuesday?

It's not special for you. Isn't there a committee that you can ask for an extension?
