GYTES GOSSIP (PN 4 December 2009)

It was not a good weekend for Peebles or Scotland as both narrowly lost games they should have and could have won. The Tweed Homes men are stuck at 8 in the league and a long journey and a tough game faces them tomorrow at Rubieslaw with a 2.00 PM kick off.

On the other hand, the seconds had a good win at Melrose, although going behind in the first half they pulled it back. Tomorrow they will be at Philiphaugh to play Selkirk Stormers for the third time this season.

The Colts win at Violet Bank, against Jed who went home with nothing, on Saturday morning gave the home side a chance to show off their skills. One of the downsides was the amount of dog fouling that had to be shovelled of the pitch before the game could be started, this despite the notices asking owners to keep their animals of the playing surfaces. Mind it was done with a brand new spade purchased especially for the job, but it would be much much better if dog owners would keep their pets away from the playing surfaces with Violet Bank and Hay Lodge Park being the most affected areas that PRFC use. Tomorrow the colts are away to Kelso Harlequins.

This Saturday, the Gutterbluids are running a coffee morning in the Eastgate Clubrooms, 1000 to 1200. The Gutterbluids are a voluntary group involved in many good projects around Peebles and who support many other voluntary organisations such as the Christmas Lights Association, so please support them and give generously.

Sunday afternoon sees a different form of entertainment at the club. It is titled "Take That" and runs from 1PM to 5PM. Entry for members and members’ guests is £5.
