Ryder Report
What can I say, that probably has not been said, at all the great battles over the centuries. The Goths, The Visi Goths, The Barbarians, The Normans, The list goes on.
Imagine what they felt like after witnessing their troops get the routing of their lives, could you imagine Attila The Hun saying to his vanquisher, hang on a minute mate, have you got a handkerchief, well thats what I felt like when all those mangy dogs started laughing and howling at the cats, last night.
I hope all you DOGS are proud of yourselves .
Big Dog is masterminding next weeks Ryder
I am going to change the format of my Ryder report next time I direct, as I dont want you all getting bored.
Round 1
As usual believe the bits you want to believe
DOGS 6 . CATS 8
Round 2

A BIT IN THE MIDDLE
A very quiet day in terms of slams with only 2 Cat slams being reported and rumours of a slam by the dogs (highly unlikely)

A Purrfect Three
Not so many Congrats to these perfect Threes LOL
I am too much of a gentleman to name them HAHA, but there were six of them
Round 3
DOGS 35 CATS 21
I have been sitting here since midnight thinking of words to describe how this round went, it is now 11am Sunday morning in what can only be described as the worst Fathers day present in my living memory, I have shed buckets of tears, I have tried to write poetic sonnets about how the undercats were cheated and swindled out of a well deserved victory, but words fail me, I think this little adage (I dont actually know what an adage is but it sounded good) I just wrote sums up my feelings:
The sounds of the hounds
Was abound all around
The poor old director
A shadow of his former self
Could not believe the result of the day
Come what may
The cats fell flat on the mat
Until next time all our faithful competitors, keep supporting the Ryder, bring new people and most of all, bring yourselves.
p.s. still need new directors, it is fun and it is one of the few jobs in life you will be appreciated and thanked for, so dont be scared have a go. Lets keep Ryder fun and up and running.
