And We'Re Going To...


Recommended Posts

I thought I'd open up this thread so that we could all share the triumphs and congratulate our teams' achievements, whatever the sport...

I'll lead off with

Congratulations to the Philippines, on their promotion to the top flight of Asian rugby next season - keeping them in the hunt for a place at the rugby world cup in England in 2015

Congratulations to Thailand on winning the Asian Division II rugby at eKelana Jaya Stadium, defeating a powerful Malaysian side 22 - 19.

They play off against India later in the year for promotion to Division I, and a chance at promotion to the Asian Five Nations elite in 2014 and possible world cup qualification

And perhaps we could afford a grudging "well done" to the Scottish rugby team, the only tourists to win in the Southern Hemisphere this month, despite some cracking performances by the Irish, the Welsh, the English and the French as they drove their hosts close

Even a third win against Samoa for a clean sweep in the test series won't be enough to haul us into the Top 8 and favourable seeding for the 2015 world cup...

Bukit Jalil!

I just bought two tickets for Malaysia - Man City on 30 July at Bukit Jalil National Stadium

The other choices were Arsenal or QPR, so it was an easy choice...

Malaysia - Liverpool was a great day out last year...

And whilst we're here, I might take a virtual digression to Muirfield, and catch up with my dear old mother, while I'm about it.

And now, if you don't mind, I'll wax a little nostalgic with some reminiscing...

So I was sat outside in my shorts in a pub in the North East New Territories, watching The Open from Muirfield, and the weather was not the balmy sunshine - balmy, it's positively quite warm! Anyway, it wasn't in 2002 (if my memory serves me well) it was blowing a gale and the rain was coming in sideways. Poor old Tiger Woods' parka blew inside out, and - the sound was turned off, but you could read his lips - he said to the caddy "FirfucksakeMan! Whyd'yenoplaygolf inthe Summer?"

And I can confirm that Thailand overcame India to win promotion to Asian Division 1 and keep alive their hopes of qualifying for the World Cup in England.
