Well it's a tight race in Lincolnshire for most ludicrous soccer team, what with Gainsborough Trinity and Boston United in contention, but Scunny are certainly up there with the best.

The rain's warmer in spring and there's all the excitement of whether they can win and secure 16th place, so hope to see you over then. Come & watch the local XV too if you do – makes cage fighting look like morris dancing and that's just in the bar after.

Have a good weekend.

The story behind that is simple: Scunthorpe are sufficiently ludicrous to justify following them.

If we make it over, I might well take you up on that offer. I'd say we'll probably make the trip, but it gets fuckin cold there in winter. We went there in December once and I'll never do that again. We might leave it till the weather moderates a bit.

Bock – as a newcomer I had no idea you had a fondness for the Iron. What's the story behind that then?

Having spent many a cold, wet saturday afternoon on hockey and rugby pitches having the living crap beaten out of me by the gentlemen of Appleby, Normanby Park, Flixboro etc I have a certain fondness for the place. I often wonder if anyone found my teeth.

If you do make it over, I dare say a beer could be arranged, if you've the inclination.
