In one of the most important weeks for English sport in recent history, things have so far gone badly wrong, the effective deciding match of Five Nations has been lost and one of our remaining three football teams in European competition has thrown it away. Saturday completed a pretty miserable
After five years of trying, the RSM rugby team brought "The Bottle" back to the union bar. The game was a fiercely fought contest from the start, Cambourne literally fighting for the ball. The weight of the RSM pack always meant that Cambourne would struggle in the scrums,
After going a goal down as early as the second minute, ICFC fourths dominated the game. Although only one-all at half-time we should have been leading and the reasons for this were bad misses by Pete, Darren and Morgan. Darren came good in the second half, completing his hat-trick, and

After a marathon five hour journey we reached Hull, which put the team off, except maybe Alasdair who found the Humber Bridge "exciting." After 45 minutes of traipsing through the most dismal town in the North, we eventually found the pitch thanks to Tom’s unerring direction sense.
For once, IC first footballers arrived on time, and with a full team. After UCL’s last pasting by us we expected them not to show, only to be disappointed when they turned up an hour late. Conditions left a lot to be desired with winds of at least one
With a free date in their busy schedule, IC II kindly agreed to play us, the fourths, in a friendly. The match was delayed while the less proud members of the fourths clammered to get their autographs. When it got underway, it was clear that it was going to be
A defeat in BUSA spells the end of a glorious run, but the fourths need to pick themselves up from this defeat and concentrate on the league. It all went pear-shaped in the first few minutes when our keeper misjudged a routine shot, and then another defensive mistake put IC
A dozen shooters went to Hawley in Kent to try their hands at clay pigeon shooting. After a brief introduction, the motley crew settled down to a twenty-five bird sporting layout (for the uninitiated: bird = clay pigeon; sporting layout = one way of positioning the clay pigeon launchers and timing of
