I M GREEN (PT1)

Yesterday Central were away to Sheffield B in the IM Brown. I had a problem with my clutch and so decided to get the National Express. I was informed that the coalition were no longer subsidising my pensioner's card to the tune of 80p(sixteen shillings) but if I paid £10 per annum, I would save £3. As I only use National Express for funerals in London and chess matches in Sheffield (only one of which I look forward to), I declined.

The coach left on time at twelve thirty due to arrive at Sheffield bus station quarter past two, I thought I would have time enough to get to Woodseats. Come five to one we had got to Dudley Hill( via the scenic route).We carried on to Leeds travelling South, then west, then finally east. I was wondering if the driver had been bribed( for board 5??)

After Leeds next stop Wakefield ( the front of the coach  said Gatwick). If the coach kept stopping like this those with Euros would be skint before they got to the plane.

Any way we got to Sheffield at about two thirty.

Find out in the next episode, did rekorts report to save Central??

If you did get there Dennis, I'm sure you performed better than I did in the Woodhouse at the Latvian club (Bradford B) against their Sheffield team mates - by any onlookers point of view, I probably came accross as a complete novice...

I put the full story on this morning pressed submit and as if by magic- gone. So I'm doing it a bit at a time, suggest you do same. Did you play the team Central beat 7-1 last year?

When do we get to see the game to judge for ourselves John?

I'll dig it out, that's if it isn't already in the bin!

I've read Andrew's report on the match and it raises an interesting point.

Central also played a re-arranged match( from 29/10) thus those who had played that date were inelligible. If anybody plays on the 4/12 which match would they be classed as inelligible for?
