8th Feb 2025 FuBars Match Result

Result: FuBars 15-10 HCL
Captain: Garry Windle
Try Scorers: Gav Lewis, Brad Sutherland, Jack Tolliday

MoM: Gav Lewis

FuBars are thrilled to report a hard-fought 15-10 win over House of Commons and Lords RFC in a closely contested match that was unfortunately cut short due to an injury. The game, played in four quarters of 15 minutes each, saw FuBars draw first blood, but HCL quickly responded with two scores to take a 10-5 lead. However, our team showed great resilience and determination, clawing back to level the score in the third quarter and then taking the lead with an early score in the fourth quarter. With the score at 15-10 in our favour, the match was abandoned at the 57-minute mark due to a serious injury to an HCL player requiring medical attention on the pitch. Despite the unconventional ending, this win is a testament to the team’s unwavering effort and tenacity. We are grateful for the fantastic turnout of players who travelled from far and wide to participate, as well as the enthusiastic support from our travelling fans, partners, and children who cheered us on to victory. This victory is a welcome boost for FuBars, and we look forward to facing HCL again in the future. Well done to all involved!

We’re playing against some Westminster folk…

Firstly, apologies for the distinct lack of updates on the website and via email over recent months – player communication has been almost entirely via WhatsApp and Spond (and will continue this way) but email communication and website updates for the wider group fell by the wayside. Consider this now fixed!

This Saturday 8th February at 11a.m., a FuBars squad will face off against the House of Lords and Commons RFC.

The match will take place at the London Welsh ground in Richmond. The full address is below but whether please if you can make time to come and support the players, and if you are a player who has not out your name down for the match, please let us know by either updating your Spond response, or replying to this email.

Thank you for your continued support,

See you Saturday at London Welsh Rugby Club, Old Deer Park, Richmond TW9 2AZ for an 11a.m. kick off!

Hugh Keir
Vice Chairman
