No one really knows the history of Eric Potts but rumour has it he was born in the thick Amazon rainforest, in deepest Peru. He was fathered by a group of orangutangs up until the age of four. He had to leave as they fed him one banana a month which left him with a fear of being overweight. Since then he has been living in the Brig o Don where the JCB took him under their wing.
Crunch Game
After a gruelling pre-season, the Joe's vs JcB rivalry is re-ignited tomorrow with both teams eager to get one over their rivals. Joe's, for once, can muster an almost full strength squad, with the only absentee being Cocker, who is rested. However they are able to call up B. Mason in his place.
Joe's line-up:
GILBERT
WESTWATERS
JOHNSTON
MORRISON
B MASON
SHEARER
MACKENZIE
JcB:
HEPBURN
M WATSON
SCOTT
GALLAGHER
COPLAND
S WATSON
FORBES (yes van Nistelrooy himself)
The strength in Joe's selection is evident in William Hill's pre-match predictions with the Joes at 1/2 and JcB rank outsiders at 8/1. The draw is 9/2.
