Even though I'm playing in one of those games, I agree that seems like a lot of league action for a throw-in day. (How many games, three?)
On another note I'll defo chip in for lights for a Sunday evening session if there's 6.

Cam to ref Chukker's polo match shocker! Reformed non-reffing free-riding dick list member comes good in dramatic fashion. Or is this a long play for revenge?
Look out for fireworks on Sunday evening as Cameron Staniland, formerly a prominent member of the 'free riding dicks who don't ref' group, breaks with an alleged 6 years of tradition to ref a game.
This is not just any game that Staniland has chosen to ref however, as one of the teams contesting the fixture contains the notorious London League organiser, a shadowy figure known only as 'Chukker V'. He has been referred to by the media as bike polo's answer to 'V' in 'V for Vendetta', just a bit more abraisive with a tendency to use long words. Staniland has been quoted previously, during December's controversial 'refgate', saying:
'Chukker thinks he's V but since taking control of the league, power has corrupted his anti-establishment mind and he's becoming more like Kim Jong-Un'. Staniland backed this up by quoting Chukker's 'fascist' anti-immigration laws which blocked non resident Londoners from playing and his drawing up of the 'non-reffing free-riding dick' hit list. 'Its like Germany in the days of the Stasi and its just not fair' complained Staniland.
The two are rumoured to have called a truce to their war of words but speculation has been rife that the referee is out to to poison Hemlock's tilt at the League 2 title.
When your reporter asked a passing polo player named 'Beagle' what he thought of the controversy, he launched into a diatribe about various other issues and eventually went off on a tangent about throwin attendance that didn't make much sense. He then ended by demanding your reporter's absolute trust and then enquiring if we needed any bicycle parts delivered anywhere.
London polo is, as usual more interesting off court than on court.

Woah. League Sunday at Downs mayhem. Can people not spread the wealth a bit with the courts or organise some lights so that you don't bite into that precious daylight.
Please take it elsewhere or get lights.
With any luck the #Bestcourtever at HH will be playable for a day of throw-ins too.
