The off season

Post by Monkey Boy »

Well I just had a thought about how good the off season is!! Premier League is back, A-League is here, and Saturdays off... It is good to have a bit of a break. But I was thinking, I feel sorry for Bodo as now he has no life. It may be a whole 6 months until the superstardum of Bodo-mania may stike his life once more, if at all!!! What will Bodo (or others) be doing in the off season?

More things around the house and with my family I guess. I haven't really given it much thought.

Bodo, do you like cricket? :D

Turf league is cricket's version of the amateur league.

My wife would go nuts if was out every weekend in the summer as well. She can stomach football, but cricket I doubt, unless it's backyard cricket with friends.

Yeah, that's fine for today Jay, but what about tomorrow ?

Maybe I should start training ready for a comeback in 2009 ?

You missed the Broadway and the Holdfast off that list.

Oh and add in

I love the hill. The Chairlift gets installed over summer to make it easier for everyone.

None of the guys are leaving though. Love the club to much.
