    A Southend statistic of note!

    A lady goes to her priest one day and tells him, 'Father, I have a problem. I have two female parrots, But they only know how to say one thing.' 'What do they say?' the priest inquired. They say, 'Hi, we're hookers! Do you want to have some fun?' That's obscene!' the priest exclaimed...

    One Day - Week 1

    May as well start this now as FC holds no interest for me (till Tuesday!). Seems my opponent has gone for the mega batting route, amassing 1,700+ runs so far so I'll be hoping his two star bats will be shattered. Also, it appears he's listed his top 10 players all expiring at the same time...
