    Well, I think these puzzles do stop us all getting tense and tetchy, so for those of you who like cryptic crosswords I offer the following clue;

    Toe-Scramblers; about regularly at St. Marys this season! (7,6)

    I have high hopes of this on Saturday!:)

    For all I care it can be a one nil victory with a deflected goal off the backside of an elephant :).

    Did you use the elephant on purpose? If so, that's good.

    How are you getting on with these, CF..? I've managed 7 so far, after a fairly quick look, but those must be relatively easy. I mean, if you can't get Colour the Angler **[Hugh Fisher], you're going to be in a spot of bother with the rest..! ;)

    **Highlight space between brackets.

    Yes, colour the angler was a legend, but then so was "Irishman and River".

    Who can forget that special celebration, arms gyrating away, as Paddy Mississippi scored yet another goal.

    Whatever happened to old Paddy? Don't hear his name often these days. I sometime times feel that we should name a suite at St Marys after him or something.
