How can a score-line of 7-2 give a slight sense of disappointment?

When Guernsey FC faced Crawley Down Gatwick at Victoria Park in front of the noisiest crowd so far, they really got the job done in the first half.

In fact after just five minutes they were already 2-0 up!

But, as happens so often, even at the highest level, it's hard to keep that high intensity going for a full ninety minutes.... but they did keep up the pressure for a memorable 45 minutes!

It was the second half that went a bit flat....

However the final score was fantastic. We cannot fault such a decisive result. The squad are really showing strength in depth with the next generation enjoying coming off the bench and gaining valuable experience for the future.

It's tough at the top. I photographed the Cornerstone Guernsey Basketball league game at Beau Sejour on Wednesday night and it was a tight game between top rivals.

Battling for dominance were Gravity and Savills. In an exciting climax it was Savills who just took the win by a single point!

I managed to capture a few photos of the action... but I have to be honest, I spent most of the time just being a spectator!

The Green Lionesses have hit a tough patch of form.

The side has been weakened by the absence of several key players leaving gaps across the pitch where a group of youngsters are facing visiting opposition and literally having to learn on the job.

To try and put a positive on the situation these junior players are gaining valuable experience and we hope that they are laying the foundations for the next few seasons.

Last Saturday proved to be a challenge for the GFC Women when AFC Varsity visited Victoria Park leaving, after producing a dominant performance, with their 1-4 win.

It's great to see that the Green Lionesses are still getting a good turnout of supporters who offer them lots of encouragement.

I think we all understand that we are in it for the 'long game' and sometimes you have to take a step back before re-grouping for another surge forward.

The Guernsey cliffs looked beautiful on the bright late February morning whilst I photographed Round 3 of the 2026 Guernsey Kart & Motor Club's Moto-X Championship.

This form of Motorsport is attracting quite a good entry of new junior riders. Looking around the pits I recognise this is driven by a group of ex-riders who are now fathers.

It's great to see them encouraging their children into the sport... something that is a win, win for the club and the families who get to enjoy some good shared time together.

A terrific job was done by GFC on Saturday when they sent home Haywards Heath Town with their tails between their legs after being well beaten by our local lads!

The final score line of 3-1 could have been more... but I shouldn't be greedy, eh!

To make things even more enjoyable the game was played on a sunny afternoon and we all know what a pleasure that was after so many weeks of rain!

Amidst the scene of utter devastation the Guernsey Velo Club held ROUND 2 of the 2026 Ian Brown's MTB Cross Country Series on Sunday morning.

The storm force winds a few weeks ago have transformed the Guet leaving huge pine trees scattered as if a bomb had felled them.

A sad scene but one that the GVC took advantage of by building a challenging track around the obstacles.

As a photographer it actually made an interesting backdrop to some of my photos. This is a link to a new gallery on my website if you are interested:

Saving the best till last, the 2026 Little Big Group Guernsey Rally entertained crowds of spectators as it finished the busy weekend of motorsport with some spectacular racing on Saturday afternoon.

The price to pay for this enjoyment was a thorough soaking for any mad photographers and spectators who chose to stand out for hours in the rain whilst waiting for the 'road show' to return to their stage.

However, we all soon dried out and the memory of the discomfort fades... but we still have the photos to recall the racing action!

I've now completed all the 2026 Rally edits and the hundreds of photos are now uploaded to my website if you are interested.

If you can share the link that would be great, thanks.

A new update for the Little Big Group Guernsey Rally has been added to my website.

Featuring the Saturday morning racing I had so many photos I've actually split them over two Galleries!

Still to come I have the Saturday (wet one) afternoon to add. Keep a lookout so you don't miss them.

I feel so lucky to have enjoyed both the 'old days' of actual film photography and the modern replacement in the form of Digital capture.

The special part about spanning such a dramatic change in photography is that when I first picked up a camera I was able to develop as a photographer at a time that 'shooting' a roll of thirty-six photos resulted in considerable expense as developing and printing added to the cost.

This taught me a certain discipline and awareness of when it was unwise to even try (waste) taking a shot in near impossible conditions.

But now the good, no, great thing about the digital era is that taking photos and exploring photography in near impossible conditions doesn't cost a fortune... in fact it is essentially free!

So it was good to push the digital photography boundaries on the Friday night stages of the 2026 Guernsey Rally.

The challenge was to work in near total darkness without using flash lights whilst capturing very fast moving Rally Cars!

I can't claim that I'm totally happy with the results I ended up with but it was certainly enjoyable trying to overcome the situation... and the best part is that it didn't cost a penny!

What an incredible two days of the Guernsey Rally... but a little bit wet too, eh!

I was out with dozens of other photographers trying to capture the action and keep my kit dry! The edit has started and It's a biggie!

Well done to everyone who made the event work so brilliantly. I spoke to dozens of spectators and residents along the Stages and didn't get one negative comment.

I think Guernsey has grown to LOVE Rallying! Mission accomplished.

I'll be adding my photos to the Rally Galleries on my website as the edit continues but just for now here are a few tasters.
