Training Update

Well after initial fears that we'd be a little thin on the ground this week, this was quelled after rumour circulated that 'Jason The Brazilian' from the Sunday side would be making an appearance, which meant there were players crawling out of the woodwork from every where, like Ben Strachan (who I'm pretty sure Max told me was dead! Oh well?)

Steve Collins continued his immaculate start as Secretary by taking the Bleep test to Portugal with him, and Banksey our Treasurer left me to face the music with regards the dosh, as he couldn't making training coz the Sky man was coming round (to be fair that's my fault because I mentioned they were having a one month 'Little House on the Prairie' special on bravo!)

The Road run came hard to the new lads but it did separate the men from the boys.... or rather the 'men from the fat boys' as Laws, Jones, Hollywood, Lansey and I were more the comedy costume runners than the Kenyan athletes who shot of as pace makers London marathon style.

Cooper turned up late as per usual but offered to run round 'The Rec' (accepted), then went on for a second time by his own choice (Don't worry.... we did do a piss test and I'll get back to you with the results), Rosey was late but made it just in time for the 7-a-side with fresh tears in his eyes bless his little cottons (see shit excuses for details).

That a side an enjoyable run out with excellent passing through out, Sterry like always continues to take any opportunity to take his top off, Darren Laws proved he's a striker trapped in a darts players body with some outstanding finishing with left and right feet, but goal of the day had to be Ross 'Jan Molby' Jones who hammered home, whilst half way through his excuse that the pass was awful before realising his effort was goal bound.
