2025 - Anticipation Builds (like a wet pile of sand as the tide comes in)

Wins, losses, draws, emotiontional ineptitude and most amazingly no lawsuits.


All of these things have done nothing to impede this years Captain Miller Millar who through his bravety and tenacity has managed to setup one of the most anticipated golfing events of the year. Whilst managing to push back the Ryder Cup (the lesser known golf event) to a more acceptable viewing time, the main SCC tributes will have performed to their impressive golfing abilities in the enduring and relentless test that the UK has been waiting for.


This years host course barlady incumbent, Gwyn Owen Griffiths Taffy of Southerndown GC, has commented thusly.


“We welcome back the SCCers for their second apperance after a torturous first hosting only a few 8 (sic) years ago. Nobody knows what happened, who won, or even why they played. We said “hwyl fawr a fuck off” to them all those years ago, yet despite either a lack of options, moral compass of a pure desire to overcome adversity, they are back again. What a bunch of complete cunts.”


Cunts indeed, some might say, but not cunts completey, you may be surprised to find out.


Since the last a full post was made a few changes have happened along the way. We, here at the “Blogspot” would like to fill you in on what has happened to yours heros (sic) over those past 10 years


Miller Millar (captain) - whilst navigating his meteroric rise to the captaincy has had (some would say) a rather “tricky” time and has battled with some tough demons. None more so than Dom giving him cancer with a hot spiked curry. Neverthless this did not stop him from cheating death and remaining the oldest on tour.


Ben Williams - a shell of a man who’s waking life soley focuses on looking in the mirror, wondering how he became related to Dom (see above) - but also has the luckiest winningest ability of any SCCer despite having airborne AIDs nearly every event


Dom Williams (see above - then above Ben) - just a cunt of man, still. He hasnt changed. Of course we all love him, but really, come on.


Neil Guyton - despite having a flare for maths and stats, he managed to “lose” all of them in a freak sacking from his previous job, involving a length of hose, two bottles of lube and a new found friend in a man called Stavros who irons his underwear


Matkinson - he’s still clinging onto the thought that nobody has noticed that tattoo. His favourite 6 iron has been retired for a 6-wood and now living in the shires, he thinks that a flat cap, barbour jacket, checked blue shirt and having his meagre cock out is acceptable dress wear to a good old fashioned debate about immigration in the town hall. Seriously, no hats inside.


Nick Brooker - despite his golfing prowess and multiple wins over the past 10 years, Nick still hasnt made the open (Dom you owe me a £10


Chris Seddon - he abandoned his home country to prosper crypto in the foothills of Vancouver many years ago. Many wished he would never return apart for the SCC, they were grateful for his acceptance to the request.


Pete Bramwell - The Bulimic Pie Eater has struggled with his partner selection over the years, and mainly he has lucked out finding many of the reputable gentleman above to carry his increasing weight over the 36 hole competition. This year he has opted for a buggy to the delight of the field.


What will happen this year? Nobody knows. We do know, though, that they will have a fucking blast doing it!

Holy Shit, we’re back! (Still a bunch of C’s)

 


SCC: Ten Years Older, None the Wiser



Well, well, well… look who’s still alive. It’s been more than a decade since the last SCC blog post, and in that time a few things have happened: the world has changed, golf has changed, and—most noticeably—we’ve all got older, rounder, balder, and slower. Some of us more than others.


Back in 2012, this blog was buzzing with rules about trousers round ankles, fines for bunker-hopping camels, and whether anyone could find a shirt bad enough for Saturday night. There were lookylikeys, weather forecasts of doom, and Simon Porter proudly accepting his status as the “white Tiger Woods” (Elle’s words, not ours). And then… silence.


So let’s recap what’s been missed, what’s changed, and what definitely hasn’t.





SCC 2012 Greatest Hits (According to Us, Anyway)



  • The Rules of Engagement
    Where else would you find punishments that required a man to either drink a “very gay cocktail” or drop his trousers at the bar? Classy as ever.
  • The Lookylikey Parade
    • Ben Williams – Bastian Schweinsteiger (still German efficiency, still late on the tee).
    • Mattkinson – Fabio Capello / Xabi Alonso hybrid (basically: stern eyebrows and Mediterranean chic).
    • Nick Brooker – Sergio Garcia (though with fewer tantrums, marginally).
    • Neil Gayton – Jim Furyk (swing uglier than a wet spaniel).
    • Chris Seddon – Bubba Watson meets Jay from Inbetweeners.
    • Simon Porter – White Tiger Woods (still searching for his Nike sponsorship deal).

  • Legendary Golfing Moments
    • Matthew Miller, at 67 years young, carding a hole-in-one at Mead Open Farm Crazy Golf. Mrs Miller still claims it doesn’t count.
    • “The Road Hole” at St Andrews. Shots into the tarmac, bunker visits like it was Disneyland, and one or two swings that didn’t make contact with the ball (or reality).






Fast-Forward Ten Years…



  • Matthew Miller – Now approaching 80. Still insists he can out-drive you, but only if you measure in yards walked rather than balls struck.
  • Ben Williams – Still German. Still late.
  • Nick Brooker – Possibly now closer to Nick Faldo in age than Sergio Garcia in looks.
  • Neil Gayton – That Furyk swing has aged like blue cheese.
  • Chris Seddon – Still Bubba on the legs, Jay on the face, and now with the patience of neither.
  • Mattkinson – “Iron King of Matkinsons Town.” Hairline under review.
  • Simon Porter – Still white. Still not Tiger Woods.



The rest of us? Older, slower, probably shorter off the tee. But at least our bad shirts have held up. Polyester lasts forever.





What SCC Missed in the Golf World



While we were all busy pretending to stretch our hamstrings:


  • Tiger Woods won the Masters (2019). We missed the chance to claim credit.
  • Phil Mickelson won the PGA (2021) at 50. Proof that Old Man Miller still has time.
  • Brooks Koepka hoarded majors like SCC fines in a bunker pot.
  • Rory kept us entertained by almost winning everything.
  • Jon Rahm, Collin Morikawa, Jordan Spieth… new names, new stars. Not a mention from SCC.
  • LIV Golf happened. Players left, cheques got bigger, egos got louder. SCC failed to issue a strongly worded statement (rare restraint).
  • COVID cancelled golf weekends. SCC would’ve fined people for coughing.






SCC Rules 2025 (Proposals for the Next Decade)



  1. Shorts must be worn above the knee or trousers immediately dropped to the ankle.
  2. Bad shirt on Saturday is mandatory. Anything subtle = round of sambucas.
  3. Practice rounds within two months? Still banned. Unless you’re Matthew Miller, in which case a nap counts.
  4. Lookylikeys must be updated
  5. Camels fine increased from 20p to £1 (inflation, lads).






The Next Chapter?



So, here we are. Ten years on, still daft, still swinging, still certain that the best shot is always the one after the beer.


Let’s call this the revival. SCC is back. Older, yes. Wiser? Absolutely not.


Now… who’s up for St Davids again?

Yet more FWAGS...

On the back of #FWAGWSCCS (FWAGS Wearing SCC Shits) on the blog Mrs Bumwell, wife of the all time legend, most SCC trophies ever won golfer Pete "Legend" Bumwell, has been seen sporting the Pennard outfit.  She did want to wear the Tenby outfit, but since this has been signed, mounted and put up for auction under the title, "Shirt worn by the winner - Bumwell - on what was definately the best ever SCC" she will have to just wear another of the winning shirts instead.


We did have time to conduct a short interview with her and managed to ask a few questions on Bumwells warm up and preparations for this years SCC competition.

"Well, its been an interesting time for him. Normally i dont see Pete at this time of year due to all of the promo and charity work he does to get in the right frame of mind. This year though, i couldn't get him out of the house. He seems to be a broken man, sitting and staring at that wooden spoon monstrosity.  He's in a dark place, he just keeps quivering and chanting "blob, blob, blob". I even tried to feed him some Guinness from his 5 time winning tankard, and he just spat it out saying it tasted like defeat. Im sure that his return to Aberdovey will be just the thing he needs, as i know the last time he was there he was speechless for days!"

Bumwell - who has been in and out of the Priory since the last SCC competition is now said to be in a stable condtion and has managed to reach 1 1/2 pints of Pimms a day before his practise rounds, hoping to get back to the 2 pints for this years comp. Butch had this to say, " he seems to be hitting it consistenty passed the ladies, which is a marked improvement since the last time he appeared at the Dovey."

On the contoversial question of the number of balls Bumwell lost he had this to say, "look ... i dont know if it was 12, 14 or 18, what ever it was, it was a lot.  Pete knows this, the public know it and i know it. We have to put the past in the past and look towards this years comp and i can say that i am fully confident he will definately not lose more than 20, and for me thats a good thing. Yes his pre-SCC warm up for this year has been ropey at best, i mean starting with a triple bogey on the first comp of the year without losing a ball is always gonna get you down, but he's just gotta go out there and enjoy himself and not play like a total twat, which for him is going to be difficult."

For now all we can say is good luck to all the SCCers and may the best team win!

FWAGS get in on the act...

With only days to go before SCC9, a new craze sweeps the nation and the FWAGS are all over the action.


Put on your retro SCC shirt for the lads!

 

 
Here, Clare Smeddon models a vintage Pennard 2009 number...
 
That's right.  2009, Pennard.  I wonder how much she paid for it on eBay.
And here Kate Matkinson seems to have bought herself the same shirt!..
Great work FWAGS!

Really getting into the spirit of it.

See you all on Thursday.

NOT Wednesday, Nick and Seds.

Anyway, I heard Royal St Davids has come down in the world since SCC2...
