| I'll be going.
The Eagles don't have a brilliant records vs Gateshead but I'd be disappointed with anything less than a +12 point win.
Agree with Dr B about the line up - I just hope lack of match practice doesn't bite us on the backside

| Can't see anything on the official Thunderpants website about cheaper tickets if you book in advance - normal price is £15 for an adult.
There are some interesting stats on their last 3 games - Gateshead look to have conceded 240 points.

I checked out 66 for an 11 dart finish from 301 last week, went the T16 D9 route knowing the single would leave the bull, then promptly hit single and bull worked out that it was an 82 three dart average, easily gets me into the BDO.

Well, I wasn't far off.
Pretty ordinary performance to be honest but conditions weren't the best and it was our first run out. Menzie touched the ball four times, scored three tries and dropped it. We were 16-0 up at half time and it should've been more to be fair, defence was solid and we were quite content, second half was poorer though and we let them back into the game.
As an aside I'm actually surprised the game went ahead, just look at the state of the pitchhttps://a6.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash1/hs907.ash1/181534_493136137605_540252605_6534876_4934441_n.jpg" >

| We can't use this game as the conditions were truly awful and it mustve been near impossible to see any kind of distance. The game wasn't really one for great skill but our ability saw us through in the end. Whilst Gateshead lacked skill they made up for it in enthusiasm and effort. They've got the start of a useful side there and may cause some teams problems. Idve been in two minds myself wether to play the game given the conditions but no one wants to go up to Gateshead midweek. Ronnie did have a very inconstant game but speaking from experience it's very difficult to ref in those conditions. Next week should give us a better idea of how the team is gelling. Respect to the 23 hardy eagles who made the trip.
