Spot would like to wish you all a Happy St George's Day.

He'd do it in person but he's too busy trying to get across the poodle over the back field who's just come into heat

Certainly some very tight games this time around. Some are going to need a strong cuppa after the results are announced !

Has anyone got his phone number?
I'd rather be beat fair & square than go through by walkover.

No rush... Spot needs a Nervous Wee

Back soon

Give Sproggy some extra time...take Spot for a 10 mile walk

RalphCoatesComb · Post by **RalphCoatesComb** » Sat Apr 25, 2020 6:01 pm

Spot says "Don't look a gift horse in the mouth!"

Ref has blown !

BIG SHOCK TO COME !

RalphCoatesComb · Post by **RalphCoatesComb** » Sat Apr 25, 2020 6:06 pm

WOW! What a performance by HunterST ?! 16 – 14 against the one and only Buxton ! Spot had to check his abacus… 3 times !

PLEASE CHECK YOUR RESULTS !

Goobs, playing away, scraped a pass into the Semi-Final (10 – 9 over Barry Chuckle). Firthy also managed a 10 and dispatched Wilks. Dazzler goes through as Sproggy fails to show.

Moving to the Michael Duff Trophy, there was an emphatic win for Joe13 over BertieBeeHead (13 – 4) but all of the other games were very tight affairs. Bobinho, Evensteadiereddie and SteveF all managed to make the Quarter Final with 6 points apiece. Perhaps the match of the Round involved The Admiral who came with a last-minute rush against ClaretOnTheCoast (11 – 10).

The draw for the Semi-Final of the End of Season Cup sees Firthy v Goobs and HunterST v Dazzler

I’m assuming as my score wasn’t posted it was a whitewash

Edit. Closer than I thought then

Hardly a whitewash Wilks ! 10 - 8 against the mighty Firthy is very creditable !

Cheers Wilks, close and hard fought contest. Just hope my opponent doesn't drop a goober on me in the next round.

Sorry Sproggy...I called for some extra time for yers but Ralphy wasn't having it.

Now the analysis

Image 1

No one came even CLOSE !

Image 2

Only spotted correctly by HunterST. Probably where he won the match.

Image 3

Surprisingly, only correctly identified by HunterST (again), Joe14 and Redcloud203
I say surprisingly as the ball was captured with 4 squares.

Image 4

Correctly identified by Buxton, The Doge and Claretonthecoast 1882

Image 5

Only Dazzler got this one but there were several near misses.
