Hi Guys
Its been a funny couple of weeks and a bit hard to get enthusiastic about what to write, basically because we have been, well, shit really. An away game at the ole frank and, well, we were away so we lost. 11-1 was just embarrassing though with not much to shout about. Pauly Tyler worth a mention as he played a really good game that would probably have got him a win on any other night. Highlight of the night was probably goochy turning up in a LEGEND t-shirt.

This week we were back at home to the queens head and hoping to keep our home form going starting off with bungle and goochy (still wearing the legend t shirt but this week wearing it over the top of what appeared to be a white kaftan). The good news is they played really well once they got away, the bad news is they didn’t start for 18 darts – 1 down. Next up were magoo and yid who started well, then got worse, then went to complete shite then couldn’t finish. 2 down. Me and hos steadied the boat before stridey and clint played ok but lost to leave us 3-1 down.
To the singles and ozzie took advantage of his opponents slow start before the legend and bungle both lost to leave us struggling at 5-3 down and really not playing very well at all. Clint got one back with a good 70 finish then Stavros got another after a bit of a marathon finishing game. This left us at 5-4 down needing shoot em up, hos and me to win to get us a win. Unfortunately dave came up against nibby in good form and all hope we had of scraping a draw disappeared when shawns opponent hit a double twenty with just about every other dart he threw! I managed to grab the last game but we had lost 7-5 and waved goodbye to our unbeaten home record.
All we can hope now is that we play a hell of a lot better and end our non-winning away run next week, although the jury is still out as to where we are playing. We know we have the Stanford but they are not playing there and we think we have narrowed it down to either the hearts of oak or the oak tavern,
Either way we need some inspiration – maybe we should consider the yellow and green team shirts again if we lose! Maybe just one for the duffer of the week to wear, that should get them worried.
See you soon
