Barry thumbs a lift to Hoglands Park
All we do is previews.... we don't play any bastard cricket.
Off to the war zone of Hoglands Park where it’s time for
more Cup Fever and The Village versus The Shire Part 2. Apparently we have the Special Forces Unit at the game to ensure people get off the pitch. Just what we need.
With continual pissing rain being the order
of the day for the past two weeks, this is the first fixture either of these
teams have had since the last one between these two fine sides when The Village
won by 9 wickets. Changes ahoy tonight
though and the Village have had to plumb the depths of their squad to field a
team following disciplinary issues involving duct tape, a white van with
blacked out windows and a sheep. The Guru
and Geoff are helping police with their enquiries, aided and abetted by Nigel,
the Worlds Nicest Lawyer who will ensure that they get done for it.
This leaves the Village with the following side:
1 Colin Day – The Big Dog has been left hungry for 3 weeks
now. Carnage may follow.
2 Tom Richards – in the side despite refusing to pay his
match fees due to poverty
3 Steve Paul – Revelling in his summer of cricket, Spaul
will once again be attempting to prove that Worty’s decision not to give him a
game 3 years ago, was a foolish one.
4 Luke Blackwell – Every cup game, a Joey gets promoted up
the order.
5 Glen de la Cour – The Skip may have to unfurl the mighty
Graeme Hick willow for this game
6 Phil Jewell – The silent assassin is in the house.
7 Jonjo Stovell – Surely some mistake putting this knob so
high in the batting order. Have you
forgotten the shouldering arms incident?
8 Tom Barge – All I know about him is “he’s a left armer”. Secret weapon.
9 Rob Saunders – Back from fighting contra-rebels in
Nicaragua, the one man pace battery.
10 Nic Feest – Learning new swear words and insults for
ginger people, our kids academy prospect who will probably be better than all
of us when he grows up.
11 The Legend of Barry
Please, no more fucking rain.
