On a day when the wheels came off the fiery chariot and our beloved Lilywhites were given the kind of thrashing rarely found outside an English public school dormitory, those good old London scottish types gave the Old Boys of Queen Mary’s an equally spiffing biffing to the tune of six tries to two. Oh I say, what a topper of a show! |

Ah mes amis, quel might have been. Le premier demi, ah, c’etait, how you say in English, awful. Les joueurs run this way et that, a gauche et a droit, mais to no effect. Ils were like l’armee Francais in WWII, toujours en retreat. Vingt et quatre a nil, was, how you say, terrible. Seulement un equipe en le match. Le traffic, it was going only one way. Tut! Tut! Tut! Et zut alors! Mais le seconde demi, ah, Mon Dieu, c’etait fantastique. Maintenant, ils joue avec les couers de lions. Ou est l’equipe been hiding? |

On the sixth day, he created rugby and it was a thing to behold. And so it was, on the sixth day of the week, in the fourth week of the month, in the tenth month of the year, in the year of our Lord 2008, that the fifth legion of the London Scottish came to defend their place against the evil army of Ealing. Surely the first of the halves in this battle rose above all that have proceedeth and must layeth down the manner in which all those conflicts to come should be playeth’d. |

Those who had seen the early season results of last year’s league winners may have had a little more hope going to Richmond Park than recent years. However, they were to be sadly disappointed as the ExBs were thoroughly beaten by a fitter, younger and simply better team in what was an unusually ill-tempered game. |

U beee-utie! First league game of the season, first victory of the season! Not the warmest arvo, and the late arrival of the oppo meant the warm-up went on longer than the first half. The Bank Of England has been feeling the pinch recently and it is credit to their team that they turned up at all, never mind showing a very competitive and spirited resistance. |

What a fahkun grate day! Hotter than a heffer’s fahkun passage in season. Free beer, free slabs of Red bull (do they give you fahkun wings, or do they!), free kit and a free barbie. Fahkun grate. Bit of pre-tournie nerves for the London Scottish boys, cos, like they only had a squad of 11 and that’s just fahkun rubbish for tens. But no worries, as the numbers finally settled at a baker’s dozen which, although not the full monty of 15, would sure make it easier come the sharp end. |
