Pre season training commenced for the veterans on Friday nite as the grizzled warriors assembled at the Beaufort arms to be put through their paces by new manager Eddie young with ‘big’ Martin taking on the director of football role.
True to form only 9 turned up for the gruelling session with Airsy a mere hour late.
After much deliberation an impressive 29 man squad was announced with the manager professionally writing down names and phone numbers on the back of an envelope.
With the opening fixture only 6 weeks away the lads enthusiastically made repeated shuttle runs to the bar with the portly firefighter somewhat improbably coming top in the bleep test(the bleep test being how many times ‘big’ Martin swore before James returned with his beer)
All in all an encouraging start to the new era with the management team confidant of eclipsing last years tally of one point.
