Well here we go again my blinkered view of TJs v Blackheath 

What a load of rubbish
The travel issues made everything awkward. You had to navigate across a mudflat to get to the pitch which didn’t seem a lot better. Apparently the warm up wasn’t good and that carried on into the game and the first half was filled with indiscipline and dishevelment which allowed Tom White to do his stuff and then throwing an interception to a player that couldn’t catch a cold with us last year rounded of a pretty miserable first half despite 1 try from Blackheath. The second half was a bit better but again Nothing was flowing and TJs defence managed to blunt almost everything although 2 tries kept Blackheath in the game but couldn’t find that finishing touch and TJs stoutly defended to see the game out. Then to round it off they refused to feed my 14 year old who works as part of the back room and runs the Tee on for the kickers, first time that’s ever happened and I hope we never do that at WellHall which rounded of a pretty crap day

Pretty poor on the last point. 🙁

TJ's facilities are shocking, the money they've spent on their squad over the years you would've thought they would spend a few quick on the ground. Good win for them Saturday however, after an indifferent start, looking like they will be in a good place going forward to challenge.

If you thought TJs pitch was poor, I look forward to your review of the pitch after this week LOL

Do you mean after this week's rearranged game for ' CLUB ' at Sevenoaks which may draw quite a crowd as it's a rest weekend around the leagues. Be interesting to see who the neutrals will be rooting for Tongue

As if I need reminding Clap and I must defend him by making others who read this aware that he was under extreme duress at the time. Seriously though it was a fun day on the occasion you speak about. I was even allowed to enter the special bar.

Agreed, last time I went the pitch and the surrounding area was a bog - always take your wellies
