London League VI Fixture Chat

@Thundershafts -- If you can get a sub that your opposing team agrees to, then that is fine. If they disagree, or you don't get one, then you'll have to play with 2 people.

cool. thanks B.
wanna sub? :-p maybe you can sub as a leftie ?

ok on serious note we need a sub for 7:30pm at Newington Gardens (yes that's in 37 mins!) i will bring beer.

:) only if they agreed. I couldnt tonight anyway. Hope the game went well. xb

having a bit of a situation...
got a text right now (6:35pm) from Jo saying he has a cold and it is too cold and doesn't want to make it worse. (our game against WestWay is in 50 mins)
Ana and i are on the way down... (abit unsure what to do..) 2 against 3 (even a bigger present for westWay ;) ? if we do not play the game we automatically lose 15-0, but to be honest i prefer to play and lose with a bigger difference than not play but then i guess this is a bad choice for ThunderShafts.... )

Any suggestions?

This is appalling sportsmanship, and in my opinion sheer cowardice. Johannes, you need to check your attitude and apologise to your team. No one ever has a cold that escalates that fast without prior indication and the fact you gave your team less than an hours warning is pathetic. I am embarrassed to be a member of the same PC as you and I think you should be disqualified from the league.

holy shit FuschiaI think your being a bit soft on him there...

Westway vs ThunderShafts, Newt, 19 November

Nota bene: due to a last-minute cancellation ThunderShafts chose to sub in Maddie, with the full agreement of Westway. If this contradicts the spirit of the leagueoverse then ThunderShafts would of course accept the forfeit but would rather hope the game stands. As it was fun.

First chukker: 7 - 0
Victor 3, Phil 2, Vit 2

Second chukker: 10 - 1
Victor 5, Phil 3, Vit 2; Maddie, 1

Third chukker: 5 - 0
Victor 2, Vit 2, Phil 1

**Westway 22 - 1 ThunderShafts

Scorers: Victor 10, Vit 6, Phil 6, Maddie 1**

Westway largely had the run of the court and the space for a nice passing game. ThunderShafts never gave up though, with Io keenly chasing and Maddie supplying some cool supportive moves and sketching a well-deserved goal in the second period. By the third chukker the ThunderShafts backline was getting really hard to crack, even under some heavy goalmouth manners, but their rare breaks were too often caught mid-court, often by a speedily backtracking Vit, while Phil did a good job in goal when called upon and also worked hard on perfecting his ShotPass™. Special mention to Ana who showed impressive firmness and some new-found hoppage and had a few super-close attempts that could easily have added three or four goals for her team, but top scorer Victor takes MVP, generating some sweet plays and displaying a properly pinging shot. Mistress of ceremonies: Agata. Thanks y'all.

I second this.

Yep as Rick said, whatever the committee decides about the game (re: our very last minute sub) is totally fine with us. Thanks maddie for playing. It was fun. Big thanks to the refs: it was so cold so Thanks for coming! Oh rick sweet write up :)
About the very late notice of our team being down one, it sucked especially knowing that the other team and refs and friends were down there in such cold weather so we just wanted to play the game rather than waste the journey of everyone. Anyway. 22 goals well deserved. Well done westway.

Table and OP correct, post above corrected.

Great write up rick, really well written.

Yeah man nice writeup.

hint hint, Ben...

In many respects polo has changed dramatically, in others, not so.
No polo etc.

If the opposing team agrees, then there is no need for a committee. Westway agreed so i assume the result stands. Correct me if i'm wrong chukker. (pretty sure its all in B&W above) Also fuch yeah Fuchsia, you tell that little puss bag. Joe your gonna have to change your username from BLUE to YELLA!
:)

It was a great game yesterday! Anna step-up her game with a great poping and contra attacking that well deserved some goals. Thanks to all the people who came down and to the refs! great review Rick!

Rick and Victor, thanks! you're lovely guys :))

Yep, results stand.

Now, if just three of the 21 Division I players could step the fuck up for the subs and forfeits committee that would be just dandy.

Will do

Matt - I'll do it

Thanks, guys. Just need one more now.

I have added the sub and forfeit committee members to post #2. (Forum names are from memory, so let me know if I spelled them wrong.)

Is there a list of arranged fixtures anywhere? It's difficult to keep track on this thread.

As far as I know the following have not played yet and have to do so by 2/12/13, but there's no dates set yet:
**
Division I

Round 1 **
Hot Knives vs Acid Trip
Haymakers vs Sucker Punch

**Round 2 **
Acid Trip vs King Cobras
Crow Bangers vs Hot Knives
Six Feet Under vs Haymakers

**Division II

Round 1 **
Daredevils vs Clerks
Rubix Pube vs West Way

**Round 2
**Rubix Pube vs Daredevils

Is it worth starting some sort of shared calendar?

Yeah, we should probably set a google calendar up.

Quite a few games to still play in Div I

Acid Trip vs King Cobras is on the 1st December, 10am at Downs.

I was under the impression Haymakers v 6 Feet Under was going to be 1st Dec @ 10am, but we possibly didn't post it, we'll be at 9am if so?
