Re: Game Thursday v Arlesey

Andy I believe it's a development team fixture like the Ivinghoe Pitstone game the following week.

That said not sure why it shouldn't be publicised?

Just in case you missed the paragraph in Roy's Bulletin, please carry on sending me your suggestions for a suitable name for our exclusive new brew celebrating 150 years of the FA Cup.

Re: Hitchin fanzines

Couldn't stop myself adding this cartoon which will also have featured in one of those mags - stolen from Viz, no doubt.

I defy anyone not to find this amusing.

Re: Hitchin fanzines

Russell - I have discovered a few copies of old fanzines still in the green folder that used to house the cobbled together proofs before they were copied by Irvin and me, quite illicitly at work. The informal sponsorship of National Mutual in this enterprise was much appreciated. Baby faced Barry Sw...

Re: Tribute To Matthew.

Another stalwart leaves us so unexpectedly - not much one can say other than to reiterate how much of a loss Matt will be to the Club as well as everyone who knew him. Whilst my memory these days is pretty sketchy to say the least, my first contact with Matt and Marek must have been back in the late...
