At blowy old Blisworth last night,

The Knights gave Target a fight.

We scored 94 

And Target one more,

To put all our efforts to flight.

White,Ryan and Harnett chipped in.

Dave and Terry coped well with the swing.

Two twenties from each ,although Terry admitted.. he... struggled with... his timing,

Both Dave's sixes a peach,

Saw Knights leave the field with a grin.

Target's openers faced Laingy and Stig,

One wicket for both helped us big.

Some bowlers got caned,

Our skipper looked pained and muttered an audible "Pig !"

Wurz, Si ,Eagle and Culver fought well.

These bowlers gave all in their spell.

Fielders Ryan and Tom

Threw in like a bomb,

But our bowlers Target did quell.

With 21 cherries to spare,

Our total was reached fair and square.

We put the kit in the car,

Headed off to the bar

And a good barbecue we did share.

We needed some 20 runs more

To set the Targets a score.

With a little more luck,

If some catches had stuck,

Are conclusions I can't help but draw.

Next Thursday we're off to Harlestone ,

To start on a new winning run.

It's a winnable match

We must take every catch

And Wurzel can bowl his slow one.
