What others think of you:
Benny Bennett, apparently also known as the Bulge, was clearly a well-established stud at the club when I arrived on the scene.  Centre forward, a man with an eye for goal, scored countless goals prior to the records our historians were able to find.  What we do know is that he netted a total of 30 goals in his final three seasons at NHC, before his departure to Ely.  At Ely, he literally went on to score dozens of goals, in one particular match scoring an incredible 10 goals!  Benny's special attribute is his cack-handed flick; apart from being able to catapult the ball the length of the pitch, he is especially dangerous at short corners and penalty flicks.

Anything else?:
Threw up out of Team Newport Bus
