All sports clubs are created equal, some are just more equal than others
While the Caving and Pothole Club only have sufficient ropage to negotiate their way into the underground kingdom, and the skydiivng club are being forced to cut down on parachute provision, the Royal York University Squash Society are raking in the readies.
The Mixer
Tucking into our chicken, erm, ‘supreme’, having blagged our way, Gordon Brown-like, onto the top table, TM takes in the surroundings of the York Sport Dinner.
The College Cup Final Preview Show
Looking forward to the final of the college cup? Nouse and YSTV have a preview show, with interviews, highlights of the semis and a team of panellists discussing the pending match.
Reffed off and missed butts galore
What a specatacle! TM has been in, around, underneath and inside (no not in that way) the college cup action this past four weeks and must admit to being slightly perturbed. Mostly by that oaf Matt Butter. Or is that Bowyer? Either way there’s no place for Moulet-bashing in the beautiful game – just ask Roy Keane. He never used his head – just went in with studs showing.
York Sport Committee Elections Guide
Still undecided? Nouse offers a complete guide to the candidates in this year’s York Sport elections
The Mixer
So, with the Student Union elections fast approaching, and five potential York Sport presidents to keep us entertained, TM sent three politics-mad spies to the sports centre to find out who the students want to win. Now, it would be vaguely excusable if in Market Square a few biology students here and there didn’t know the names of that famous five, but surely the sporties care how much they’ll have to pay in York Sport membership next year?

Lancaster Rugy 1sts Capt.
Proudest moment of the weekend:
The professionalism of the team. We’ve had a lot of stick throughout the last few years for being unprofessional – off the field, perhaps on the field as well – but we made a massive effort from two weeks before hand, and that showed through with great fitness [...]
Tom Moore – We won!
We won! Months of early mornings, late nights, ruined degrees and preparation meant we came in easy winners, not that it felt that way.
Thursday and Friday were fantastic days that saw Lancaster completely shell- shocked with our performance. Saturday was less emphatic and saw them slowly scrambling back. It was all left to play for [...]
