The squad for the ALRT's match against Lloyds of London has been announced - 3 surprise new debutants At the traditionally packed press conference, Manager Nick Evans announced the squad for the Arthurian League's Representative Team. When Eyebrows were raised at the composition of the squad (no Tonbridgians at all, no Baby Beddows, no Alex Robinson, several other stalwarts missing), Evans replied that this was due to the demands of the Forest v Tonbridge clash in the Premier Division together with the general injury crisis affecting the ALRT squad. However, Evans then revealed that he would be handing debuts to Messrs Lawrence, Moss and Hillgrove from the Old Alleynians. Having personally been a witness to their giant killing brilliance (in a pulsating Arthur Dunn quarter-final) Nick admitted that he had no qualms about the Alleynian Musketeers being able to make the step up. More worrying for AL observers was the suggestion that Assistant Manager Billy "Billotelli" Jenkins would be bringing his kit for a cameo appearance. Some thought this was as bad as naming Lord Mufty as a substitute (as had happened when the ALRT played the SAL) but Evans dismissed those fears with characteristic elegance. "Shevjenko", he argued, would not be distracted if the opposition lined the pitch with cupcakes - as had happened to Lord Mufty when the ALRT played the SAL. In case you wish to attend, the match details are as follows: Ford Sports & Social Club Aldborough Road South, Newbury Park, Ilford IG3 8HG Ko: 7.30pm The squad is as follows:- Jack Francis – Old Foresters (GK) Billy French - Old Foresters Tom Redmayne – Old Etonians Rob Hawkin – Old Salopians Andy Moss – Old Alleynians Jack Haverson - Old Foresters Miles Hillgrove - Old Alleynians Daryl Noble - Old Foresters Tom Kelly - Old Salopians (Capt) Fred Richardson – Old Harrovians Tim Downes – Old Carthusians Josh Lawrence – Old Alleynians Lachie Shaw Stewart – Old Etonians Char Avelle - Old Foresters
