If it wasn't for your wellies where would you be?

(Above) I would never consider commercialising the66pow and taking on advertising to raise revenue to finance my lavish lifestyle choices, but I would just like to take this opportunity to say, the best pub meals I have ever eaten, affording very generous portions for a most reasonable outlay, were at a premises in Newington, on the Misson Road, near Austerfield.
(Above) This panoramic view of Armthorpe Welfare's Church Street Ground was taken whilst standing on my tippy toes in the Netto car park next door. I didn't park there though, read my Rossington Main v. Teversal report (17.03.09) to find out why.
Incidentally, the pitch side advertising to the right of the goal in this picture, if you were so inclined to zoom in, is paid for by a very nice public house in Newington ... it has a "Large Adventure Playground"
I do have a panoramic view of Netto taken from inside the ground, I am willing to post this for you to peruse if anybody really wants to see it btw.

Every time I visit the "Wellie" ground, their humble but perfectly adequate grandstand seems to have been vandalised still further by the local no marks have progressed from petty and immature crime like snapping car windscreen wipers off to 'major league' vandalism, such as kicking a few breeze blocks over and then running off while nobody is around to give them the good hiding they warrant.
Birch them, tar and feather the little fuckers and bring back the cane ... that's my effective remedy in a nutshell.
I'm quite surprised that Winterton Rangers are tucked into a mid table position, because every time I've seen them play they've put in an impressive performance and won.
Tonight was no exception.
That said, in my humble estimation, the man of the match had to be Armthorpe's number 3 Henry Sibeng. Despite his shirt number, he was a left sided attacking midfielder and if a couple of his team mates had been anywhere near as keen as him to take the game to Winterton, the scoreline might not have been so one sided in the favour of the visitors.
