FOLLOWING THE SALTMEN

It has been brought to our attention that there may have been an insignificant typo in our preview of last Saturday’s game at Royal Wootton Bassett. Apparently, we may have referred to the prestigious Marsh Challenge Cup as the ‘Who Cares Cup.’ This is clearly incorrect and we really are very sorry.
It seems we inadvertently got the prestigious Marsh Challenge Cup confused with a competition sponsored by Roger Townsend and Pete Daltrey. As fans of classic rock will know, Roger and Pete are the only remaining founder members of The Who. By way of putting something back into the community, the band’s (possible) charitable foundation “The Who Cares” have considered sponsoring a regional knockout football tournament, namely The Who Cares Cup (possibly).

Obviously, our almost plausible explanation should not be taken as a knee jerk response to The Saltmen’s reinstatement to the quarter final stage of the prestigious Marsh Challenge Cup.

Hats off to Tuffley for ‘fessing up. It must be a real choker to miss out in such a prestigious competition. I know we were absolutely gutted by our exit and the chance of another trip to the atmospheric HQ of Gloucestershire FA in the final.

The Who perform Chirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheep during their legendary free concert at Lido Park Band Stand, 1968.

In the unlikely event that The Who do not sponsor a football knockout tournament or have a charitable foundation called The Who Cares then complaints should be sent to the Interweb Management And Terrestrial Writers Atrocities Tribunal (I.M.A.T.W.A.T.) C/O HM Department for Fun, London.

See you there.

Cheers
