Firsts home v Colinton 1s(Tue, Mar 6)

Firsts go down 2-3, 9-15 against Colinton 1's. Kev Moran 3-1 v. Richard McBride, Will Kerr 0-3 v. Gregor Thompson, RvLienden 2-3 v. Neil Thompson, Nick 1-3 v. Gareth Wright, Mike Hall 3-0 v. Kim Byers.
Some exhibition-style play from Kevin after an error-strewn first game loss feeding McBride's forehand volley. Some great counter-drops, flick drops and gets from Kevin to make Richard look like a beaten man in the 4th.
I saw the first two games of Rich van Lienden v Neil Thompson and it was high quality stuff, the working boast of Neil versus the straight drop of Rich. Rich said afterwards that he needed to drive a few boast-returns straight rather than crossing and putting himself back under the kosh.
This was the 50/50 match to decide who got the bonus points and no fault to Rich for taking it to the wire.
Mike against Kim was a let-strewn affair and I think Mike's physicality and leftie style put him in control where a more conventional opponent would have suited her better.
Didn't see any of the other games but Colinton seemed happy to come away with the points they did.

Can I say what a dull report that is? It is not what visitors to the site and comments section come for. Where are the tales of the vitriol, controversy and referee abuse that have become synonomous with Grange Squash Club?

Non-anonymity, pathetic!
