I am taking a late fitness test for this Friday.

Dear Readers, I am taking a late fitness test for this Friday. I will be a bit rusty
after a three week break but I am raring to go. The Spizz gig is this Thursday but I might be unable to go due to family commitments. We have to wait and see. I feel for Spizz after his team Aston Villa got squashed by Arsenal at the weekend. Apparently, Villa are interested in a £6m Robbie Keane, which shows they must be desperate.

A few weeks ago big Ian G. organised a brilliant competition to mark the nuptials of Big Sam, who brought one of his brothers along to play and his Dad, who smashed my record of being the oldest geezer on the pitch being north of 70. Chatting to Sam's Dad in the pub afterwards, I might have committed a faux pas by asking why he did not support Crystal Palace rather than Millwall given his Peckham birthplace. This probably showed my complete ignorance!!

Anyway the competition was played in great spirit and my team was a bit unlucky given Joe had a Robert Green between the posts and we could not quite hit the target in front of goal despite the pace of Yev and Steve A. Big Dave was immense as usual in defence but I felt I was letting the side down a bit by being really slow. But at least we can aspire to win the cup next time.

We are going to have to arrange Spizz testimonial!!

I expect we are going to have to arrange a testimonial to mark the retirement from
footie by punk star Spizz after his Dublin Castle gig, which is on Thursday, December 2nd. Sorry I have been a bit lacklustre in terms of putting out the blogs. I have got a couple of games to catch up on such as the cup competition marking the wedding of Big Sam. Suffice to say the team I played for came last in the group stage despite being strong on paper.
That was followed by a depressing 6-3 loss and an unbelievable argument about the penalty that never was.
Last week I missed because of failing a late fitness test and this is likely to be the case for tomorrow and next week. So lads, start sending in those match reports!!

The Dublin Castle is in Camden, 94 Parkway, London, NW1.
