No Footy!

Matt,

Correct - no footy tonight, but we'll be back with a vengeance (and depleted fitness no doubt) next week!

We are in essence a club of all rounders aren't we?

Me, Flash, Scunners, Nelly, Bird ... all bat high in the order and bowl. Then there's Cotters! Are Micky J and Cliff to be considered all-rounders? Nick Hud and Frankie B certainly do both, while both Fletchers have turned in useful performances with B&B. Mozzer Snr can strike a mean ball and has a fine technique to go with his relentless bowling. Craig Parky is a very useful all-round cricketer, though his bowling has not been seen much of late.

Then there are players like Holty, Mike Ainscoe and Steve Smith who are fantastic in the field, thus adding another dimension to their game. Smiffy has opened the batting for the 2s, while the first team skip turned his arm over this year too - captain's privileges there!

The CDO also pretends to bowl nippy little seamers!

I don't think Dickie P will mind if we class him as a batsman!
