Hello Potty B fans.
A couple of weeks to catch up on starting with a home game against the Football Club. Ladbrokes were not offering very good odds on the draw as we have managed to hit 6-6 on the last three occasions so we knew it was going to be another close game.
That said we managed to start out trying to let them thrash us with shoot em up and yid (tame) then magoo and the legend (also tame) and then quiff and clint (bloody awful) all losing to leave us 3-0 down. Fortunately we had the in-form Bros on next and Shawn and Darren got the first leg on the board for us. This started a good revival for us with moysie winning the first singles. Hos (who had previously that evening been trying a new tactic of moving around like a marionette from an old episode of Thunderbirds, ably assisted by Bungle and Stavros) also played well to draw us level. Stridey then took us ahead for the first time before Oz lost and I won (God knows how) to keep us in the lead at 5-4. A loss for Clint set us up for what was looking like yet another draw and a tense finish. Step up the legend for a good game and a great attempt at a 145 finish. Trev missed the 145 by a gnat’s dick and missed 30 by 2 feet but held on to guarantee us the draw. Last on was Thunderbird 2 in the shape of Darren who played a superb last game to get us a great 7-5 win from 3-0 down.
Looking to keep it going, this week we travelled to bottom club ex servs d. we certainly didn’t have this one all our own way losing the first 2 doubles, moysie and oz to very good opponents and Bros who took half an hour to start, caught up, then couldn’t finish. Shawn was unlucky clipping the wires with every dart and was starting to get visibly frustrated until Billy pointed out that the nearest curtain was over 6 yards away and really shouldn’t have been causing a problem! Clint and yid got our first leg with Steve hitting our only two high scores of the night and further strengthening his claim for a place in the singles, although with the way some of us have been playing it doesn’t need much strengthening! A tight last doubles with me playing ok partnered by shoot em up and the score was level at 2-2.
Legend up first in the singles (tonight Matthew I’m going to be Dave Stride) as Trev won his game and performed the famous Stridey fluent one-legged spin into a hand shake. 3-2 to us. If Clint had started on time for the next game he’d have won but he left himself with too much to do. A good game from Hos was followed by an equally good game from ozzie, until the end with around a 100 darts at a double but just couldn’t finish. Stavros then took full advantage of his opponents slow start followed by Moysie with an exact replica to secure us the draw. Two games to go to get both points and Stridey played well before proving there is only one shoot em up, original and best, as he showed Goochy his real class with a perfectly landed triple salko into a handshake. That’s the way to do it. With the points secured I went on last and should have got thrashed but was let off at the end to leave the final score 8-4 to us.
Back to back wins to strengthen our position trying for a top half finish.
We are at home next week to the old frank who thrashed us 11-1 away so we are looking for a drastic improvement.
Regular readers will have noticed a lack of mentions for Bungle over recent weeks. He is threatening to come back soon after taking a Jarvisesque sabbatical following a bad game. Mind you, in his absence, Yid has been throwing his darts and playing really well with them. Watch this space.
See you soon
Bye all

The weeks sure do pass quickly!
Congratulations to Bardy and his missus on the arrival of their baby daughter during the week, Amber Poppy.
Congratulations also to Eddy for winning his first singles match in 8 attempts and stopping the rot. It also means PH is level with you most defeats on the bounce with 7! Magical!
Fluffy is on one defeat now so beware! Although I'm not sure there's enough games left to reach the record!
Away to Ex Serv D this week and all eyes were on Eddy's singles match! Except mine, as I was with PH again this week in the doubles, Doh!
I can only remember a few facts about the evening so here goes:
1/ PH was crap in the doubles and won!
2/ PH was crap in the singles and won!
3/ Linx hit a 150 finish in the doubles (partly how PH got a win)
4/ Eddy recorded a much needed win to ensure he wasn't a runaway loser!
5/ Result 9 - 3 win
False advertising!!!!!!
Everyone must have heard that annoying advert on tv? No, not "Go Compare" or "Compare the meerkat.com", it's the car buying advert.........."We buy any car dot com, we buy any car dot com, we buy any car dot com, any any any any, we buy any car dot com!!!!!!
Well it's now official that it's false advertising as PH called them to get them to buy my old mondeo I sold him 2 years ago. They didn't offer a ridiculous price, they simply told him straight......."I'm sorry, the car doesn't fit our requirements"! Lol
Other News
1/ Fluff and Linx destroy both challenges this week at table bowls!
2/ The B team get through all 12 legs this week!
3/ KFC stays open until 12, but you cannot order what you like, only what they want to sell you! I hear the strawberry smoothie thingy was amazing though!
4/ Ready hits 30 years of age! I know, he looks much older. Lol
5/ Gottsfreecabs shows up and stands firm. He refuses to take PH home across the other side of town!

Hello Potty B fans.
Sorry to all you ardent followers of the blog spot for the noticeable lack of anything at all so far this year. Its been a bit of a combination of bad weather raging man flu and strange events but normal service will soon be resumed.
This is therefore a bit of a news update to get us back up to date rather than the usual format but at least you will all be up to speed.
The first game after Christmas fell victim to the weather with the whole league program being cancelled due to the wrong kind of snow or leaves on the line or repair work at Colchester or something like that. This meant our first game was at home to the hearts of oak and unfortunately we were mostly suffering from a Christmas hangover, played pretty crap, lost and had to endure more singing (come on lads there’s incentive there for next year). We then went away to the working mens club and with me missing due to man flu (I know that strengthened the team) we played well and got a well earned 2 points. Unfortunately we could not keep it going as we entertained the hg the following week. Nuff said, couldn’t get near the previous heights we hit against them and lost 10-2. Last Fridays game away to the lake lothing had to be abandoned after some ill-feeling I am not going to elaborate on here, but it is now in the hands of the league as to what happens with the points. I won’t go on about that low point as we are looking forward to getting back to normal next week.
High points of the last few weeks: Hos Bros emerging as a formidable pairing (especially Shaun with 4 straight tons v the home guard) and Yiddo finding some form with some good high scores (in between the 7s and 9s).
A short catch up I know but now back on track so back to normal for next week.
A final point on a different subject. To all you people having a go at John Terry – leave him alone he’s done nothing wrong! If you check the football manuals it is clearly stated that if a full back leaves a hole it is the centre back’s job to fill it!
Will be back soon

Blog writing is already getting to me and this is only the second one this year!
Can I first of all give a big congratulations to Paul for winning his first game of singles in 8 attempts! Eddy is now level with Paul's record of 7 defeats on the trot but still hasn't stopped the rot! Let's hope things change around soon!!!
Look how much hair you can grow without cutting it until you win a game of darts!
That's enough motivation so let's move onto the darts!
At home to the Marquis B this week and Paul got a dream draw in the singles! He could take his usual 80 darts and still win this one!
2 - 2 after the doubles and things not quite going to plan!
The singles picked up and by the time Paul recorded a much needed win in 8 attempts it was only 21:30 with Eddy on last at 9 - 2. He seemed to have the leg in the bag against Storming Norman but I remember so clearly when Fluffy said "I think Eddy is regreting that last score (13)". I looked up at the board and there were two T20's when the next one hit the spot, Norm had hit his first 180 in 40 years of festival darts and took a comanding lead. The lead was too much for Eddy to claw back and he drew level with Paul on 7 defeats on the spin!
Result 9 - 3 (I think)!
Darts all finished at 21:35 which I think could be our personal best, that was until the B team marched in from their away match! How'd the feck could they get back so quickly from the lake lothing???
I'll let you speak to one of the B team to get a real account of what happened. All I can tell you is the score was 2 - 1 before the B team walked out!!!
Other news
1/ Paul sets new camp record with a pale pink polo shirt and bright fuscia pink jumper for his new darts strip!
2/ Gottsfreecabs is missing in action after devoting himself to the team for the remainder of the season!
3/ Dream bowls pair, Fluffy and PH get shown up by Chillo and Serious, before taking on Linx and Bungle and getting stuffed 7 - 1!
4/ How the feck was Chillo the world table bowls champion! He's as good at bowling as Aaron is at playing poker! That's $hit in case you were thinking!!!
5/ Stacey still not dressing for the summer yet! Damn!

I bought a Racehorse today! I've decided 2 call him "My Face". I dont care if he doesn't win a Race? or make me any Money?I just Wanna Hear Thousands of those fuckin Posh Tarts at Ascot shouting ----''Cum On My Face!''.

With the Christmas break I took and excuses to miss Eddy and Paul's losing streaks building up, I'm back at darts and reporting back with the first blog of 2010!
What a great start to the year!
POT BLACK DEFEATS THE EX SERV HG 11 - 1 After a slow start from the HG the Pot Black capitalised! With great performances in the pairs it took us to a 4 - 0 lead. Singles continued in the same fashion to lead 8 - 0 before grumpy graham from the HG managed to get a point back. The last 3 went to the home side to clinch an 11 - 1 victory! I think that's the last time they'll take us on at TABLE BOWLS!!!! Lol
Back to darts and away this week to the Oak Tavern! This was the venue that Hos moaned about playing at for weeks after (shocker) yet we think it's the best away venue this season! With the players championship darts on near the board, the bar at arms reach and a cracking bunch of lads, you could not want for more! I even bumped into an old football buddy (Robbie Mac) and tried to liken him to the muffin man (Steve Hines) as he was then playing on the TV! He seemed to take offence to this as he believes he's much more similar to Barry Bates!
ROBBIE MAC
BARRY BATES
Bantor followed from that moment on, with Barry Bates impressions going into overdrive with the limp!We had a full strength side out this week. That just means that we had all 10 players to choose from, not that they are all good! Skip deliberated for a while before resting himself and playing the rest of us! It worked bloody well as we won the match with the first 7 legs! I managed to sneak a White wash in there as well! All eyes were on a chesney at this point and next up was serious and amazingly he lost! He needn't have worried too much as PH and Eddy were still to play!!!!
Final result 8 - 4
Eddy now 6 without a win and PH is on 7! Sorry, I don't do motivation!
Other News
1/ Paul and Becky still not officially an item despite seeing each other every day and 50 texts or so!
2/ Gottsfreecabs sets record for most consecutive matches in attendance!
3/ Fluffy borrows Phil Taylor darts from Vinny as he beleives he'll be festival singles champion this year for sure! Let's watch him carefully this week lads!
4/ Chillo voted second worst computer game player of all time with PH by far the worst!
5/ If you haven't paid Paul for his 30th in Portugal, then get your £165 out lads! And get your passports sorted Hooks!!!
Joke corner
Carlo Ancelotti, Arsene Wenger, Alex Ferguson and Rafa Benitez are in a pub. Ancelotti gets up and gets a round in, Wenger gets up and gets the next round, then Ferguson and then Benitez. Ancelotti then goes up and buys himself a pint and sits down. Wenger, Ferguson and Benitez ask what the hell is going on? To which Ancelloti replies "This is the fifth round lads and your not fuckin in it!
See you all next week guys
