Saturday night entertainment




I can only imagine it was a very good and late session at Arbo last Saturday as it seems that Pat aided by a quorum of nameless Crossers has been busy hatching plans to hold some "armless" evening entertainment over the next few Saturdays starting this weekend and featuring a number of third team strongmen.


With the thirds at home it would be a great opportunity to see as many Crossers in attendance as possible. I'll be there, arm wrestling left handed so as to protect my bowling arm.


In my opinion KF would make a good bookie* and a tax levied on winnings would help towards contributions for the team minibus.



*obviously only "Cross Groats" will be in use not real currency.


I'll have 10 Groats on JB.

  1. I believe there is some controversy about the draw and further details will be released once a FIFA style cover up has taken place.

  12. I'll have a quid on me! I'd cut my odds after taking a blow to the (unhelmeted) head last night while batting in a T20. Still standing, tough as nails,

  13. What can I get on Roshan? I'd be backing Alex G if he was around though. Also reckon Sandy might be worth a groat or two.
