Let`s hope a suck on that half-time lemon will put the winning legs back under those Sa`fend shrimpers.  :y

They`ll be hoping to win on aggregate at Doncaster: not as soft as grass; `lots of grazed knees I`d imagine.  ;D

Must have been SHOEBURYNESS .The Horseshoe barracks ?
The Royal Artillery and the Green Jackets were both here during the 70's as I remember.

Were you in either of those.?
