Talk:Bottle Match

[Untitled]
The Bottle was not presented by Bass, it was "aquired" from a Bass-Charington lorry in 1926(?) by the RSM.

The archives tell me...

The first match was played on the 17th December in London can you confirm whether it was the 16th or the 17th? The following year saw another match, again in London with the following years being undocumented with regard to any matches between 1903 and 1920. From 1921, there has been regular matches played annually except for the war years. The first match in Camborne was in 1932 and was an RSM victory 20-8. In the 1946 edition of the CSM journal appears the first reference to the Bottle.

Finally, a couple of typos..the score for the Ladies is spelt wrong on the team crests bit and the score on this year's rugby match is the wrong way round!

If the first bottle match was in 1902 and they've been annaul events than shouldn't 2000 have been the 99th match and not the 98th? 2002 would be the 100th anniversary but the 101st match?

thank you for this information i will add 1932 to the list. with regards to the numbering of the event in 2002 the rugby team published that it was the 100th bittle and since that date all CSM drill tops have had the number printed on them based on 2002 being the 100th bottle.

Whats the point of the "overall" tally within the results tables? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.70.161.17 (talk) 06:01, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
