Promotion almost a Reality

Hi All,



Well what can i say only WOW............ Last night I played for my club Gentofte BC in a promotion battle versus our nearest rivals Triton Aalborg. This was always going to be a titanic battle but my god.... what a game.

IM now playing first men's for my club as I have passed out old Mr Boesen in the rankings so I had the honour of leading the charge agaisnt Taufik Hidiyat. What a match it was. I came through it after loosing the opening set to 14. After a yellow card for some heated shouting I regained my composure to win the next two sets to 14 & 13. It was just such an amazing feeling to win that opening game.

The match was so tight all along and when it came to my doubles game with Anders we again won in 3 sets after loosing the opening set to 18. We pulled it out of the bag by winning the next two 21-18, 21-18. God it was a titanic match. Even Lauge was getting involved in some behind the scenes dicussions. That win gave us the three points and prevented Triton getting a point for a 6-2 defeat.

The whole team went mental when we won that match. Supporters screaming and people everywhere. It was an amazing scene. You would think we had won promotion. All we have to do now is beat Solrod in our next game in two weeks and we are back in the premier league. We beat Solrod 12-1 already this season away from home so we are confident we can do this.

It is hard to describe the emotions in that hall last night but I have never experienced such excitment. Its almost 24 hours later and im still on a high and still buzzin after it.

Hey! Any video on your match with Taufik? And what was Taufik doing there? He's been training in Ireland? Denmark?
