The 2nds welcomed Buckingham squash club last night, who boast a membership of about 75 with many old farts, resulting in a pool of about 25 playing members. Membership costs £26 pa! We'll see what it's like when we visit in January.Toby played a German called Torben and poor Torben got 5 points all match as a determined and ever fitter Toby had one complaint, "I am getting to the ball too quickly, I now know how Harry felt after all his training with Matt Burnett" 3-0 Toby
Kev, guesting for the 2nds is lacking power due to scar tissue around his shoulder patted the ball around, a la Steve Cox but after a tight first game talked his oppo out of the next 2 to win 3-0. With his constant chat and looks to the gallery is he the new Bob Heard?
Neil was next against Darren Trotter (great name) an enthusiastic Auzzie who is very proud of his nation recently winning the female 20/20 World Cup! Great times for the Brits and Europeans. Neil was hopeless and hapless, not a happy camper at all. He took the first game and from there it all went downhill as Neil lost 1-3.
Antti played Dom West and destroyed him for 3 points. Antti is back and Toby has duly collected his bonus, he is a big banker after all!
I played Angus an unorthodox player, Bulls and Bears will see later. I took the first easily, went 7-2 down in the 2nd before taking it and the third. 3-0 win.
4-1 win, 17- 6.
Next week we're against the Bears and we already 2 players down.
I have sent an SOS to Ian and fellow Bulls for reinforcements against a heavily stacked Bears team which if all the best players played would challenge for the league!
I don't expect Trevor to help out though!
Gazza
In the name of fair play one would hope that the Bears might start resting or rotating their squad. Ask the club captain for guidance if you're short Gazza (or for the logic behind the squad machinations); it'll be @40 minutes after you need it, but you're sure to get a balanced response...
Meanwhile, The Bulls got 4 points last night...
