I was lucky enough to be number 18 in the queue at the SweatShop in Milton Keynes last Saturday, bagging myself a pair of the Nike Air Pegasus running shoes, at the 1983 price of £27.99! The first 25 customers getting the trainers for this price as part of the 25th Anniversary celebration, a [...]

Yesterday’s game at Shelford was one of the muddiest games I’ve played in a long time.
