Ten other uses for Tristan's headband

After arriving early to watch our Reserves recent away fixture with Sporting 87 Res., the Kid was left with the task of entertaining little Eli. Luckily, we came across Tristans infamous headband in amongst his kit: So, to kill a bit of time a new feature was formed - 10 things to do with Tristan’s headband.

Number 1.
Use it to hold yours and your partners legs together in a 3-legged race.

Number 2.
Replace a worn fan belt or alternator belt.



Number 3.
Use it as a blindfold in a game of ‘Pin the Tail on the Donkey’.

Number 4.
Use it for a game of ‘Cats Cradle’.

Number 5.
Fashion your very own catapult or slig shot.



Number 6.
As a sock tie to hold up one of your football socks.

Number 7.
Use it as a muzel for a ferocious dog.

Number 8.
To support a young tree, helping to keep it tied to a supporting cane/stick.

Number 9.
As a handsfree phone kit, as demonstrated by Eli. Pop it round your head and slot the phone in near your ear.



Number 10.
As a sling for a dislocated elbow (or shoulder if you play centre-half for Elmswell)

Canary moves to SIL 4?

I saw something well crazy this week. This might be a shock to you all, but a former Norwich player is playing in our league!! Actually, that's not so unreal, is it, after again falling down due to injury I wouldn't be surprised to see Carl Cort playing at our kind of level soon enough, trying to finish off his career on a high note. Hey, maybe we should be making some equiries ... get on the phone Bo.

Anyway, where was I, oh yeah, did you hear that former Norwich star Peter Mendham is playing in division 4 of the SIL? I'll let the Pinkun take over for a bit here. To be honest, I don't have many qualifications in Journalism, and they'll be able to explain it all a bit better, although I did get an O-Level in English:

"The former Norwich City midfielder is currently at Hollesley Bay prison, near Woodbridge, where he is two years and a month into a five-year sentence after almost killing his ex-girlfriend in a knife attack.

Now it has emerged that 48-year-old Mendham is being allowed out of prison to play for Sproughton Sports in the Metaltec Suffolk and Ipswich League (SIL)."

I had a cheeky gander on the ol' website, and he's scored 4 in 9 games for Sproughton Sports. A shame he's sandwiched between the first team and reserve side. Imagine that, us, playing against Peter Mendham, or imagine if he somehow got involved with us, and was playing with Bo in the middle .....god help us, ha!
