The Maple Tree’s reign at the top was sadly short-lived as they slipped to second by virtue of the dreaded alphabetic order (fortunately Will Howe was unavailable for comment). However the Penge crew won their third game of the season beating the Sun 7 - 6 in a good, clean and honest contest on the sunny side of Penge. The Sun are bottom in the standings, but with 16 points from three games have hardly been disgraced. The same cannot be said for Russian Athletics this week. Undoubted cheats that we always knew they were, the scale and organisation of their drugs operation was not until this week exposed to full scrutiny. They make FIFA look as pure as Cliff Richard by comparison, or maybe not.... But the wonderfully named Dick Pound of WADA revealed all in his report. I would say more about Dick,but my google search was strangely blocked at work.

It is all change at the top of both divisions this week as the Maple rise to the top of the.. err…Tree. Another away win for the team from the smart side of Penge as they beat the HGRC 8-5 in the basement in Beacon Road. The Maple deserve credit for starting so well this term and face bottom side the Rising Sun next week at home, in what looks like a potential one-sided contest on the face of it, like the burly steward slamming a child in the aftermath of the Rugby World Cup final. No doubt inspired by Boris ‘Bullingdon Bully Boy’ Johnson the steward went in with all the enthusiasm of Rafa Benitez at a buffet. Fair play to the way the New Zealanders reacted and to the RFU for awarding a second medal to Sonny Bill Williams after he gifted his to the startled child as he picked the turf out of his teeth.
But maybe it will not be such a one-sided contest, as the Sun inflicted a defeat on the Brick by 7 – 6. A good scalp this for the boys from Loampit Vale, and Harry’s hairdryer was doubtless in evidence once more, despite his team not being the most hirsute in the league, as the Brick slipped up and the Sun shone brightly from the bottom, which is hardly a first in this league. In a hard-fought win the RT secured their first win of the season, as they beat the Brethren 7-6 at the Fellowship. On a lively night, there was as much banter as a night out with Robbie Savage and John Terry. Although JT apparently has more time for his bestie Rio ‘Peckham’s finest’ Ferdinand at the moment. Who is apparently, of a level that JT will acknowledge, unlike the blonde dimwit, whose level is akin to that of whale excrement. The Brock A moved to top spot in Div 2, albeit via alphabetic order (Will Howe swears by it), as they travelled to Bovill Road and won by the odd leg against the high-flying Napier A. I imagine this is a more popular return to former glory than that of Phil Collins, who announced he was recording new material for the first time since 2002. This has provoked an online petition of true music fans and anyone with ears, that is designed to stop this aural abuse. So go to Change.Org and click on ‘Phil Collins must be stopped’. Well played to the Cyphers who beat the struggling Fox's by 9 - 4 which undoubtably capped a good week for the Catford crew and a tough start for the guys from Kirkdale. Not such a good week for Oscar Pistorius, possibly the world’s most reviled legless man since the legendary Oliver Reed was alive, and a man that literally got away with murder as he may have to serve a proper jail term after the SA judicial system are considering whether the original verdict was a mistake. As a statement of the bleeding obvious, that is up there with the edict " Perhaps FIFA are a bit corrupt, let's look into it". While poor Sepp Blatter was taken to a private clinic in Geneva, apparently unwell , and apparently (sadly) not DIGNITAS. The Prince beat the Nap B 7 - 6 in a close encounter between two of the team in the lower reaches of the division. Nice to see that Chas has recovered from his close call with a bee in the crotch area and raise a whinny to the facially challenged Duchess that he calls his wife. The other result in Div 2 was a win for the Brock B against the Catford CC as they stroked them to the boundary by a convincing 8 -5 margin. A convincing win, and far more convincing than the Photo-shopped poppy on Dave Cameron's jacket this week. It is hard to imagine the hysterical response this would have caused if this was Jeremy Corbyn neglecting to wear the British legion emblem, but that is the British free press for you. Take delight in your throw and your opponent's too. GREAT DARTS!! Darts Pie and a Pint |
