5th November v Phoenix Nights (Home) Won 360-353

After the draw against Beevers the previous week the Tatti's returned to winning ways with a well fought 7 pins victory over Phoenix Nights at home, 360-353



West starred with a superb 43 containing a wonderful 18 & a well taken 13. Turps was next best on 36 having started with a dozen he gave Griff plenty of practice chalking up eights, none of which look as good as his own.

Finally, there was nothing to separate the Collins' pair. Both ended up as the Bogoes lowest scorers and will be limited to playing a supporting role only next week, when the team travel to the Barrels. Every cloud n-all that!

Talking of support, it was a pleasure to welcome back a few Tatti old boys, Sammer, Scotty & Thommo. 



Scotty has played for the Bogoes 34 times. His debut was on 27th September 1991 at the Belmont Inn where he scored 32 in a win over Belmont Sports in Division 6. In his final game that season he lifted the Champion of Champions cup, and then left Hereford to join the forces.

Scotty returned for a one-off appearance on 5th September 2008 against Harry's Lads at the Railway Club, today this remains his only game for the team in Division 1. 



Thommo has played 96 games for the Tatti's. He debuted in the Bogoes very first match on 23rd August 1991 at the Golden Lion when, at No8 on the board, he scored 24 to help the team beat The Generals.

He continued playing until the start of their fourth season, his last match was on 12 October 1994, when the Tatti's beat Jubilee at the Cross Keys in round two of the Front Pin Cup. He then left Hereford to pursue a new career in the medical profession.



Sammer has played 170 matches for the Tatti's. His debut was on 26th August 1994 against Burlings Boys in division 4 when he scored 34 with a 13 & a 14 spare. He continued playing until 1st April 1998 after which he left Hereford for the bright lights of London Town & a spell being a student at University. 

Returning to the 'Ford in 2005 & rejoined the Bogoes on 16th September that year, scoring 24 in a victory over Wellies at K's Pool Club. However, he left again after the match against Military D on 23rd April 2008, but has since made four more one-off appearances as a 'sleeper'. His last game was on 13th April 2018 helping the team beat Fire Bridgade in a play-off match at the Military Club.
