Subject: The Ref

Following my old butty Mike Cox's advice after last week game, I had a long chat with the ref after the match yesterday. "I complemented him on his handling of the game" and he stated that the match was a fantastic advert for Welsh rugby and that he'd never seen a match in division 5 of such a standard.

I must admit I initially ended up disappointed by the end result of the match but upon reflection realise that this was stupidity, the lads are playing fantastic rugby and could, as Graham Riley pointed out have won by a hugh margin if the ball had gone to hand.

Our problem now is keeping everyone happy as we are currently using a settled side, it is however more than a 15 man game thought and we have very capable players in our squad - four subs does us no favours.
The results yesterday went in our favour and I'm already looking forward to next Saturday's game at Bettws.

Its great feeling a buzz about the team again - when was the last time we won five on the trot??

Keep it going lads and you'll have all the supporters support.

The Sec and his short memory! ;-) - we actually six on the trot last season but those games were largely of much poorer quaility than we are currently showing with some scraped victories and low scores! (NT) -- Dai, 19:26:44 01/15/06 Sun
Even I must agree this week the standard of referreeing was much improved - as was the oppositions defensive line. (NT) -- Ginger Monster, 16:56:33 01/16/06 Mon
