Yo… So a few of the poloitians (?) have clubbed together to get some stickers done. Here they are stacked up in the house of Dr Chukker.
Not a massive fan of stickers myself but the London Bike Polo ones are pretty good.
Well done Dr.

Yesterday Gabes and Mark posted the fixtures on the The London Bike Polo League website and started the fixtures/results thread on the LFGSS forum. We did this last season, it was a way of finding out the fixtures, organising when teams can meet to play and most importantly trying to psych out the other team (shit taking/sledging).
Interesting about the league…
Players and teams– this is taken from the league website:
This season has 5 more teams than last, but surprisingly only three teams that played in the last season are back with their original line up (BAD, Los Coños, and BRBPC). Instead, most teams have chosen to reshuffle and have a go with new members (although it wasn’t always a choice). What is more, almost half of all players in this season’s league are westies rookies.
My tip for teams to look out for this season would be in no particular order:
Zombie United, Rotten Apples, Malice In pololand (not sure about the name Matt), Cosmic³, SLAP, Three beards, one cup and Whats our name again (my team;))
I am, and I think I can speak for those who are in the League. Am really excited about this season and can’t wait for play to start…
321 polo!!!!!
From Todd of Cosmic:
At the Northgate pub on Southgate Rd, an empty place on the top shelf remains where one of polos greatest polo prizes used to perch.
Who could’ve done such a thing?
Rumors are circulating within the London polo community and it seems another player is responsible!!!!
This could break friendships and divide communities.
If the trophy is not returned within 20 days, a reward will be issued for the wheels and mallet of the person responsible.
Cosmic have set about creating a curse which will cause great damage.
Do not make eye contact with the trophy.The gods are not happy.
The thief has put a price tag on ebay…
Either way i hope the trophy and the team are reunited.
Woohooo! Here comes Londons 2nd season with currently 17 teams signed up to play this year… Fixtures are to be released on the 14th. I cant wait!
Read and keep up here and here!
