TRANSFER SHOCKER!!!!!!

Arriving via recorded delivery at Bloggingham Palace during the week from Director of Rugby Micky Peel was some of the most disapointing news that has ever been heard. It wasn't news that Jonny Wilkinson is injured again and will join Danny Cipriani and our own Beefy at fly-half hospital. It wasnt the fury shown by Marc Lawerence on both Look North and the Yorkshire Post about the demise of the Bradford & Bingley. It wasnt the image of Referee Nixo in his spanking new stewards outfit that he will ref in this season. Its far worse.....





"After 5 seasons of fun rugby at Otley Viscounts, I feel like it is time for a change in my rugby career. With time not on my side, I feel I will have to be quick in my ambition to play 1st team rugby at a high level. I will always be grateful to Skipp and David Somers for their support in my early seasons. However, under the guidence of Micky Peel I felt my career was stalling and his vision off 'heads up rugby' didnt do myself any favours as I am an 'up the jumper' old schol type of player. Therefore eye to eye contact was never easy with Peel so he can fuck himself because what does he know about being a hooker? I have forgot more than he knows. Old Mods is the future" - JOCK

See what I mean? And has fate would have it, 2nd game of the season is Old Mods. That will be interesting...................

HELLO AGAIN!!!!!

Resulting to public pressure, the blogger has picked up the laptop and has decided to give it another go!! So folks, 2008/09 season blog is all go!!


Lets start with the summer then since it has been a long time since I could be arsed doing this thing!! 1st port of call was answering a challenge laid down to Skipp at the end of the season by the Otley Zebras coaching team. Now they were swanning around spouting big licks about how they would beat the mighty 'Counts. So the date was set for a match between the two at the end of season Zebras' Family Day on the 1st team pitch.









Now the eagle-eyed blog fans will spot 3 or 4 familiar faces on the mug shot above on the Zebras team? Yes that right, to name a couple of them are Viscount Hall of Fame member 25 Peter Saddington and member 34 Richard Hall!! Even with a team equipped with 2 of the finest players ever to grace a Viscount shirt, they were unable to withstand a Viscount onslaught that delighted the sell-out crowd. CG was rocking like never before!!






Next on the agenda is this new found craze of training!! Yes i know its slightly against the rules of the 'Counts, but the reasoning behind this ground-breaking venture by the Skipp is to try hit the ground running and build on the great season we had last year. The question you all want answering is "What has been the response from the players?" Well, attendances have yet to beat 10!!!
