After the horror that was Day 4 of the 2nd Ashes Test at Lords I headed to Birmingham with a level of trepidation. It was highly unlikely that we’d see a repeat of England capitulating in an afternoon, but could they bounce back from a record defeat? With the chance to pick my days I … More England v Australia – Edgbaston Day 1 – Event 99
With a Test Match to write about and a fairly simple Essex match I am going to be brief on this one, no really I am! The Royal London Cup is a great format for cricket, generally a fast paced exciting day of cricket, yet with more ‘meat’ than a T20 match, and a result … More Essex CCC v Lancashire CCC – Event 98
Having been at the debacle that was Day 4 of the Lords Ashes I returned 4 days later for a more light hearted evening of T20 Blast. A local derby if there is such a thing in cricket between Middlesex and Surrey. As a Surrey member I was naturally hoping to see an away win. … More Middlesex v Surrey T20 Blast – Event 94
Having written a match report for the game on In The Loose – http://intheloose.com/2015/07/07/london-broncos-rl-v-whitehaven-rl/- this really is going to be short and sweet words wise. So, a Phlog it will be! I am I’ve decided becoming something of a photo geek, I take between 400 and 800 at every event I go to – then spend … More London Broncos v Whitehaven -Event 89
A morning at the Premiership Rugby Fixtures Release gave me a small quandary – Essex were playing Australia in Chelmsford and Surrey were playing T20 against Middlesex at the Oval. In reality I didn’t have to think too much – I rushed back to Chelmsford after having a great morning. A chance to see the … More Essex CCC v Australia – Day 3 – Event 87
An unusual event, but sports related so valid to be here I feel. A recalling of the event and a bit of a article all rolled into one. I’ve said before but I will say it again – Premiership Rugby as an organisation are very inclusive. They recognise, ‘people like me’ – those of us … More Premiership Rugby Fixture Release Day – Event 86
My 3rd game of the weekend was at Allianz Park – Saracens v Exeter Chiefs. A leisurely breakfast in bed and I set off. It turned out my hotel was very well placed for Allianz Park, the journey took me around 35 minutes. I had to be at the ground for 1ish to meet a … More Saracens v Exeter Chiefs – Event 54
Having experienced the heady heights of the Press Box at The Champions Cup Final at Twickenham, my next ‘Event’ was of a different kind, but just as important. I had planned to do my watching Essex Cricket in the morning and London Skolars in the afternoon thing again, but a message from Charles Beer a … More Under 15 Academy 12 A-Side competition – Event 49
Having been to Milton Keynes my next date was in Coventry at the Ricoh Arena – home of Wasps Rugby. I was lucky enough to be stay the night with my lovely Saracens friends Steve and Clare. We had a great evening – I’m not too sure who was more shocked that I drank wine, … More Wasps v Exeter Chiefs – Event 46
Having watched a couple of hours of cricket at the County Ground I headed back to my car and set off for White Hart Lane to watch London Skolars play – and this is a bit of a mouthful – The University of Gloucestershire All Golds! Next to Essex Cricket Skolars are the closest to … More London Skolars v All Golds Rugby – Event 44
