Thirds 14 Congleton 17.

Referees of the world watch out, Tays about. Sir did a really good job in keeping the waring factions of Buxton Thirds and Congleton apart in a sparky game which we managed to lose. No doubt a deep and detailed analysis was held in court and the guilty named and shamed but to lose 17-14 to a runaway try in the last five minutes of the game was a bit of sh***er to be honest. Good news that James W who sustained a really nasty injury was up and about a couple of hours afterwards. For what its worth Andy Uprichard was outstanding. He showed what a bit of controlled aggression can do (well he is a lawyer afterall) and I thought Captain my Captain did a manful job at the coalface. Welcome to the front row union. Hats off to the girls for holding the defensive line. The backs put in an excellent defensive performance and I have to say that if we had played on a wider pitch I think young Mr Gyte would have scored. (Mind you there would also have been a few seriously knackered forwards) We really are close to giving a team a stuffing. .I know I am unfit but was that first half fast or what? One more thing. Can Mr Dilworth please stop shouting at elderly and injured props from the touchline. If he persists he will have to front up and he knows what that means. Actually one more one more thing. What was Gytie doing dragging the honourable name of the third team spectator into the mud by fighting on the touchline? If he's going to do it at least he could connect with his punches, personally I blame the new glasses that he is wearing.
