A stalwart (?) of the club, has been the backbone of Mossdale for more years than he would care to remember probably. Would do anything for the club and is the major contributor to the preparation of the wickets. Seems to know virtually everybody who has anything to do with sport in the county. A great bloke and a true asset to Mossdale, mind you, wouldn’t want to get too close to him when he’s got a bit of gas brewing up.
