Gryff and Slyth to the Quidditch Cup
By Figaro Sellaphix, Hufflepuff Sixth Year

Gryffindor nearly binned all their hard work and well-intentioned do-goodery last night against Ravenclaw who positively destroyed them.  Honestly, children should have averted their eyes from that trouncing, it was so mightily awful.  As a Hufflepuff, I know what from horrible matches and I think Gryffindor's finally had one.

To recap, Slytherin has been a sure thing for the cup since about halfway through the season, leading the league and ending up with 710 points accrued.  Gryffindor was coming up just as strong behind them.  All they had to do was not totally ruin things, but they very nearly did!

I'd like to guess that it was Gryffindor's fault, but it's probably easier to believe that Ravenclaw finally figured out how to play Quidditch! All credit seems due to Ravenclaw's beaters and keeper.  The beaters protected their chasers as they took seven shots on goal, and the keeper only let one from Gryffindor through out of five. 

But it's too late, Eagles.  It'll be Gryffindor and Slytherin for the Quidditch Cup on the 14th of May.  Deus Deres is definitely not taking bets in the 4th story boys' lav after dinners starting tomorrow.
