Notes From the Skippers Meeting - Held at the Battle of Trafalgar Some Weeks Ago

Games Still Requiring a Skipper:
  • Headliners - May 11
  • Tangmere - May 18
  • Portslade - June 22
  • Brighton Xiles - June 29
  • Patcham - July 6
  • Lewes St Michaels - July 13
  • Ditchling - July 20
  • Hove Unicorns - Sept 7
Come on you eager skippers - let's be having you... Meanderings, Musings and Mutterings:
  • Maff offered to ring around prior to games if the skipper was struggling to get a team together
  • We should aim to get to the pub after nets on a Thursday to discuss stuff and drink beer.
  • Maff gave a team talk 8 months in advance of his skippership ---- and was still talking at 11.00pm with enthusiasm about an opening attack containing Musso and Gusset!
  • The web site was discussed. The Meisters need content to make it work. Send anything and everything you have or produce to A&E or Esso.
  • A&E (in hurt tones and with a demonstration of his hand action) “I do spin the ball and it does turn!”
Predictions Also Recorded:
  • Musso will take his 500th wicket (many, many jugs long into the night)
  • If Niall scores 100 he will buy 100 jugs.
  • If Siddo scores a 50 he will buy all the beer all night (did I really say that? Yes you did!)
  • A&E declared he would take 20 wickets in the season – no word on any beer though (probably no need as this seems highly unlikely)
  • Esso to beat personal best (needs some research)
  • Maff #1: 50 in first game – bottle of wine for everyone in the pub after (which is presumably why he played in such a cavalier fashion once he passed 25 last Sunday...)
  • Maff #2: 50 against Twineham and Wineham – champagne for all!
Siddo
