p.s. Tonight we kick off with the Threes followed by the Captains Cup, both of which will be played down to the final. It would be great if those people not playing or collecting cups on Finals Night (11th) could turn out to lend their support. Finally, I hope you have enjoyed my light hearted comments but if I have offended anyone I would just like to say – ‘I aint bovvered’.
