Posted on Wednesday, September 23rd, 2009
The Old Boys take on Artois United in a challenge match at 2.30 on Saturday on the FieldTurf pitch at the Academy. Mike Drabble the ex 1st XI captain from the 80′s is still plying his trade in the Artois Old Boys team and he brings them north from kent for the game. Old Boys manager Euan Hoy has named an intruiging squad devoid of a recognised ‘keeper…Lummy must know he’s favourite to be handed the gloves! Euan’s squad is Dave Lumsden, Doug Cowie, Scott Burnside, Brian Hutton, Andy Mitchell, Keith Jardine, Andy Nixon, Roger McKeating, Graham McCall, Craig Ford, Lawrie Tulloch, Dougie Hewat, Steve Antoniewicz, Euan Hoy, Iain Kirkpatrick.
