Update on Phil Corden (Dilla) taken to hospital last night after collapsing - during the 3rd X1 T20
@PrescotOdyssey
. He is fine but not moving much. Overnight in hospital, now home. Says he is available for the 1s today if they are short!
Looking forward to Saturdays opener against Prestatyn and give a warm welcome to our overseas man from Wellington, New Zealand Josh Peake. We have no new signings but have a new cooker, a new fridge and new flooring in the changing rooms.
All the Clubs we know have Club Men/Women. They are invaluable. Giving time and breathing life into a club. Here are two of ours: still playing, son's playing and doing whatever it takes, including organising the Sponsored Walk which has raised funds for much needed new machinery
Whatever happens today the club is hugely proud of John Dotters and all the first team lads this season. Itโs been a great ride. ๐๐๐๐๐
