It's the busiest weekend of the season to date with a BBL Cup semi-final first-leg to enjoy and no fewer than ten BBL Championship match-ups.

In one of the most dramatic weekends of the season so far, Leicester Riders' defence of the BBL Cup is over after Kieron Achara's desperation shot at the buzzer gave Glasgow Rocks an incredible 85-84 win.

Well it is possible that Week 9 will be remembered as the week of upsets. The bottom two, Surrey and Leeds both doubled their points tally while Glasgow Rocks travelled to Leicester and returned home with a BBL Cup Semi-Final place in the bag.

Well last weekend, London, Middlesbrough and Manchester rocked to the sounds of the SOS Band, Gwen Dickey and Loose Ends. I had the great pleasure of working at both the Middlesbrough and Manchester gigs, and while the atmosphere at TFM Soundworks was amazing, a full house at the Manchester Academy simply took it to the ultimate level.

Last Saturday, the stars of Emmerdale and Coronation Street joined forces with Yorkshire Jets and Manchester Thunder to raise money for the ITV Charity Text Santa. I think a good time was had by all.

While much of the focus this weekend will be on the last remaining BBL Cup quarter-final, there are also six important BBL Championship clashes to savour.
