Sharing a passion for Sport!
In spite of some of the things life has thrown at me it's hard to find me without a smile on my face.I have 2 beautiful children and now 3 lovely grandsons, I love sport and writing about it; which I do at debsknigsport.com
Here I want to share with you my thoughts on life, some sadness but hopefully a lot of happiness too. To show people that life can be wonderful even after tough times.
With the way the rugby league season has been set up by the RFL I had a fixture clash for Event 74. In common with a fair few London rugby league fans I have a season ticket for both London Broncos and London Skolars, for good measure I also have a Hemel Stags ST, with that one I get that […]
Friday night means T20 Blast! I really didn’t engage my brain when I wrote the Surrey v Essex fixture in my diary. For some stupid reason I interpreted the match as a Royal London day time fixture, when I paid £99 for a Take That ticket! Naturally when it came down to making a choice between cricket and music the […]
Having been to Alistair Cook’s Benefit Match at The County Ground last year it was a total no brainer to go to the T20 match between Essex and Ravi’s All Stars! The evening promised a wealth of world class cricketers. In fact the morning after I still can’t believe such a plethora of cricketing superstars were on the same pitch […]
With my decision to make 2015 a huge sporting year I kept a good eye on the events taking place for Ravi Bopara’s Benefit year. I just couldn’t resist his benefit dinner at The Grange Hotel St Paul’s in London. A huge added bonus was the presence of Kevin Pieterson – how controversial would he be when talking after dinner? […]
The 31st of May and I seem to have gone a bit sports crazy! 70 Events – I wonder what the total will be by the 31st of December! I have a feeling the last event of the year could be the Big Game 8 at Twickers, unless I can sneak some footie in there! Essex were due to be […]
I know I keep saying I’m going to make these blogs a Phlog – lots of photos not so many words – but I can’t seem to stop typing one I start! But, for Event 69 I really do mean it – Bath Rugby v Saracens – The Premiership Final! Something of a big game! I’ve already written my view […]
Friday evening and it was T20 Blast time again – this time it was all about local cricket – Essex Eagles v Somerset (No fancy Name) – I’m going to mix my T20’s up a bit this year so won’t be at all of the Essex games, but this one I just had to go to! Essex v Chris Gayle […]
After a rugby league fest it was time for a more leisurely pursuit, during the Easter holidays I’d had a quiet day, that generally has me looking for sports fixtures. I already had my Essex and Surrey dates pencilled into my diary so looked further afield. Lords – The Home of Cricket is a place I along with many others […]
Phew nearly done! Game 8 of 8 of my rugby league fest and of course 7 of 7 for the Summer Bash! This is probably going to read a bit more like an In The Loose article than my normal blog; but needs must. The final game should have been the best of the lot, a match between Leigh Centurions […]
Game 2 saw Doncaster sitting rock bottom with 13 games and 13 losses take on Hunslet lying 9th with 4 wins from their 12 games. A mention of lunch before I carry on – same sort of pasta as the Waitrose fare the day before – but this time a Sainsbury’s fork! It lasted! Hooray! I also ate the very […]
I shocked myself on Day 2 of the Summer Bash by not waking up until gone 9am! Unheard of! I nearly missed breakfast and probably looked a sight when I did go down! Hopefully the rest of the guests were bleary eyed too! I decided not to be fooled by that shiny thing in the sky, not that it was […]
In common with Magic Weekends the final game of the day tends to be set of as the one that should be the best on the day. With that in mind we had Bradford Bulls v Halifax to look forward to. Bulls relegated along with Broncos had fared better in the league with 11 wins from their 12 games played, […]
Game 2 saw one of my main reasons for being in Blackpool – London Broncos! This is a team who are a real passion of mine and have been for 19 years now! I was hooked when I went to see them play St Helens in the 1st season of Superleague in 1996. Being a Broncos fan has to say […]
With the iPro Sport Cup decided game 2 for the day was upon us – Workington Town v Whitehaven. The Summer Bash would showcase every team in the Kingstone Press Championship. With 6 games to post about there will be more photos fewer words that some are used to. Game 1 pitted 10th place Workington against 11th place Whitehaven – […]
7 games in one stadium – can I label each one an event? Well, being as this is my blog, I do believe I can! Those who have read a few of my posts will now realise I change my rules to suit myself – great being able to make them up as I go along! Being an Essex girl […]
A clash in fixtures as well as a change of Saracens’ last season proper match against Exeter Chiefs meant I missed 2 of London Broncos home fixtures. In addition in their wisdom The RFL have also positioned Magic Weekend on the same weekend as The Premiership Final for the last few years. It’s been a while since I’ve been able […]
