New opposition for the ‘Chels today was uncovered by an EP-Newbod attack on the FA’s Observer’s Book of Aged Football Teams. Today’s offering was the Village Vets – although the village in question was unspecified, judging by the look of one or two of them it might have been Royston Vasey where they apparently have a local team for local people.
The annual fixture versus the always strong Beer and Lager XI is one to be savoured – literally. EP had gone for a solid line-up but when the whistle went found he only had himself and Newbod to face the onslaught of two pints of London Pride.
