I always keep an eye open for great contributors' names - you know the kind, Senor Ding Dong, Heaven or Hele, that kind of thing. But why get complicated? A fairly new name has appeared which goes straight into my Top 10 of good (i.e. silly) names - yes, you've guessed it: BERT!

One or two contributors have actually worked it out. Some years ago the Gulls played a pre season match at Dawlish, and I was on holiday at the time. Met up with my mate ZippyGull, had SEVERAL beverages, sat on the grass and enthused about a trialist striker :goal: who had a beard you could hide a badger in! :bow: :bow: :bow:
We'd already worked out how the club were going to make £millions from the sale of fake beards, Arab robes and Fezzes and it would be a springboard up the league and into European domination! It was a fantastic business plan and we worked it out in just over an alcoholic driven hour. (D) (D) (D) :~D




Sadly, the manager (cant remember which one..) decided our plan wasn't viable, as he never offered a contract :rules: to the player who sadly disappeared to wherever he came from........... :-/


But the legend was born................... :nod:

I was at the game too, which is why I remember him.

He looked pretty decent that day, too.

Yea we thought he played well, ZippyGull went and shook his hand after the match, convinced he'd get a contract even if it was only a short term one.
Alas it didn't happen, and he changed his name to Moeen Ali and became a less than ordinary cricketer.......... :-/




(I made that last bit up, the name change not the bit about Ali!!) :@
