Kit Managers Blog; A Sunday at the Wick
My old mucker Iron Gloves asked for some content, so here it is warts and all, a full expose on what happened on Sunday.
9.45 arrive at club with family for coaching. Although slightly distracted knowing that its Chestnut Sunday and that in about hour the full parade of armoured fighting viehcles will rumble past. Must not let a child get run over.
Anyway off to the kit cupboard to check its still there. Yes it is. Off to kitchen, last weeks rolls for bbq were a bit mouldy, better this week after a few complaints from the parents. Catch a glimpse of yesterdays tuna sarnies, best to avoid at tea. Kit Manager's first game today. More on that later, although actually two games rearranged 20/20 and then a 30/30 against the Nepotits.
Coaching goes ok no kids run over, new coach Robin very good, I make naughty ones do a bit of extra sprinting. Big set up on Sundays lots of new coaches in spanking new smart coaching jackets including Chairman, tinge of pride. Could do with selling a few more shirts. Saw first team last week poor show re kit all over the shop very sad.
Grab quick burger sell some kit and into changing rooms for 20/20. Nathan wins toss into field v Woking. Good effort Nomaan gets some, Fast Cars bowls well, Eddy C does ok as does Coley, extracting best two players, and Immy. I think they get 128. Highlights Harry falling over trying to catch easy one, dropped and Charles the Coach Edmunds catching beauty as did Matty D.
Nomaan and Nath open and good start, wicket slow. Why did we invest in new strip same money could have kitted out club in nice new gear. Not 100% sure of what happened but we needed 16 off two overs got them Fast Cars smacked ball 119 for 4, victory.
Then straight into 30 game! Lloydy opens up with FastCars. Graham triggers Fastcars so he can have a waz, not sure Fastcars was happy with that. Lloydy gets beaten and bowled one thing about Lloydy has good kit. Coley and Harry put on a few Nathan gets a quack, not much to speak about both Smiths looking smart in proper Wick gear old man Smith in proper pullover nice. To be fair Nathan always looks the part as well. Think we got 114 starting to get a bit cold.
Tea generally gd. Avoided tuna, suggest you do same next week if brown triangles are presented, DBW a master of the freezer. Riley umpiring, apparently he been promoted to first team umps. Apparently couple of the boys said on Sat said he's been sleeping in his son in law's, Pablo's bed. Amazing what can change at start of new season. Saw AJ sat as well, good to see him, plus family Fudge and family Hibby. Fertile bunch. Anyway AJ desperate to get fit for fixture v Old Hamptonians, so he can spank his chums.
Post tea GSmith opens bowling lovely stuff, no reward no justice. Charltron gets a couple so does Tanveer, Mo stumps dangerous bat with shooter, surprise victory on cards. Young Smith gets a couple, but they get it with a couple to spare. Late finish Good effort. Quick beer. Lock kit cupboard.
