Match thread - boards cup

crisco10

Things still very tight in league C. A lot of people still to play each other too.

A bit disappointed to not get the bonus point, (despite only scoring two tries). Had 80% territory, 60% possession.. :mad:

Oh well...Good defence from the opposition I suppose!

C*nt.






You're right that was interesting

tHE vAGGABOND

got my first win last night - yes

Oisinjm

Woo, I got a pretty convincing 22 - 5 win. Had all the possession and territory. Revenge for losing A Lovely Bunch altogether twice before. It wasnt a completely second string team though, have to admit I had a few starters in there

daveharnett

Got a losing bonus point against polk high. The most I could have hoped for I suppose. With only grubber left to play, it looks like I'm headed for the almost there award knockouts.

Results are up. (wanderers v xavi seems to be running late, it'll be finished in a few.

When you were 24-14 up i thought it was curtains for me and i was gonna turn into a french club side that just cant win on the road!

Group C definitely most interesting. Only 2 points between top 4 teams.

daveharnett

With one league week left, here are how things stand:



In each cup, top hosts bottom and so on.

Still a huge amount of room for movement

Oh, here's a few I hashed up a while ago.

Time for the ultimatum I think. Unless there is an alternative by the end of the boards season, winners of this and previous seasons cups will be getting these!

Thought you were going to win it towards the end, you had the better stamina and were pulling it back all the 2nd half.

Managed to Secure a home tie for the boards cup knockout with that win

Well done, looks like you won it at the breakdown.

The results are in. Fixtures for the Quarter Finals to follow in a bit.

Looks like I have a grudge match DLR derby against Frankie's Curly Sue Death Squad in the knockout.

Fun times!

johnnysmack

God damn it I think I have the Gnomes in the quarter final again this year. Im sick of losing to those devious bast*rds!

Ah for fecksake! When I was looking at the match I figured out that no matter what happened in Group B I would still get through so I threw out a mish mash team with odd tactics, did not realise I'd have to face Grubber RFC at home! BAH! BAAAAH!

Just played the Rebels in saturdays league games. Always tight.

Is there a draw for semi's or is it 1 plays 4 etc?

Top plays bottom based on points difference from the QFs.

daveharnett

QF Fixtures are up. Please accept them ASAP.

How odd, I accepted the fixture but it's still allowing me to accept other friendlies.

jprender

Has your opposition accepted yet Frankie ?

If not, you still have the week open for a fixture !
