Martin makes an unlikely comeback to the first team at the age of 59

Good news from the Village first team who won 5-0 at Fishponds.

Cheesy scored a perfect hat trick including – I am not making this up – a left footed half volley. Geraint got the other two.

There was a late scare when Martin ‘the legend’ Black was forced to abandon his zimmer frame and hobbled on for the last few minutes but this was an excellent win.

The Stiffs also had a good win against Cribbs Third team which laughably featured Jo Coles leading the ‘attack’.

Phil Giles scored a hat trick with Naked Nathan getting the fourth. Order was restored in the game when the Village had a penalty which was unaccountably handed to Ian Simple who obviously missed.

Martin Black is 59.
