Well it is the best competition in the world, especially when you get added bonuses like a tube train journey with your good self, Bondy, Bill and the man from Barking whose name escapes me.........

I can't help thinking that this next game is a bigger hurdle than the final, looking at the other teams and the feeling I have.  The old Victorian treasure could be within our grasp (and I get to relive that experience at Met Police's ground with the Terrors back in 2008)........

Derek Barclay - ex Programme Editor at Wimbledon Speedway - now Stadium Announcer at Kent Kings Speedway (Sittingbourne) - really nice bloke, known him for donkeys years, or should that be speedways years 

Ah ha.....cheers DP, I can see it now, a new phrase at Tooting "not worth a Derek" ha ha ha.....*

Anyhow, the aforementioned LSC game is now on Weds 18th, 7.45 KO.  We get to see who we meet in the next stage then.  Nail biting stuff.

* - from Barclays Bank.  Lovely bit of slang

Hmmm.......yes, I find this very exciting.  Could we have a repeat of that glorious day in 2008 when we beat Hendon at the old bill ground.......

I shall be awaiting the result of Wednesday with much interest

Cray Valley PM beat Wingate & Finchley 2-1 so we will play them in the London Senior Cup S/F.

Cheers Andy - just got in from another evening at work, and was pondering whether to check the Cray Valley Twitter or other sites - glad I came here first 

Yes, I would agree the game will be tough - I recall only too well the last time Cray Valley came to Imperial Fields.  I just hope that we get the result this time!

Andy - are we likely to have a Tuesday night game (a la Cockfosters and Erith Town)?  London FA indicates a 'play by' date of the 11th March.........will wait with much interest to see the fixture announced

Bloody hell Plumpton, there are rapists and thieves who get lighter sentences than that !

I was talking to young Anthony Harrold at half time on Saturday and asked him how he's getting on at school. He hates maths apparently and told me last Wednesday he had to do loads of maths homework and asked Harry if he would write all the answers down for him, Harry told him '' No Son, that would be completely wrong '' and Anthony said '' I know that Dad, but have a stab at it anyway ''

Who else can I upset ?
 

The little man is buzzing over this... I just hope he doesn't build his hopes up too much.

COME ON YOU TERRORS

Hi Plumpton,

I will be talking to Cray Valley to arrange a date for the match within the next few days.

My birthday is on Tuesday March 10th Andy if you could possibly arrange it for that night.

Younger than you 59er before you ask.
