Woodside Warriors

This is the homepage for the Woodside Warriors Cricket Club based in Bingley, West Yorkshire, England. We have been playing 20 overs cricket now for over 30 years. The game we play is very similar to 20twenty cricket , the main difference being that in our version, all outfield players (other than the wicket keeper), have to bowl 2 overs each. Also, we don't play the LBW rule since our batsmen are crap and our umpires are usually senile.

Bone Idle Team Fail to Cover Website in Jim's Absence

The mighty warriors have failed to update their website while star batsmen/bowler Jim Stead has been on holiday.

All members failed to inform the public at large of their humiliation at Riddlesden CC and that they also allowed BRI to get over 130 runs against them.

"i'm not suprised ", said Jim. " I do all the batting, I do all the bowling, so who would expect the rest of the team to update a website in my absence".

He went on, "When you carry 10 people week in, week out with the collective IQ of a beansprout, you expect it to fall apart when you go on holiday".

"Some people such as Tom and Kunz think that being technically accomplished means you can find the TV remote quickly, or use a doorbell", he sighed, wistfully.

Please note the extra fixture on the 18 August. This is against Paxys' works team - who unfortunately have not been beaten in their cricketing history. This should prove a very amusing finale.

Also please see who needs to advertise JW STEAD & Son Ltd - who have been providing service and support to the textile finishing and carpet manufacturing industries for over 70 years.

Is this extra bit of advertising for our sponsors going to get us improved perfomances from the stead team. Who from reading the website have won us every game so far!!!!

Who is writing these match reports!!

Captains Preformance creates disbelief !

Captain Kunz stunned his team by playing cricket last night. A lightning batting preformance blamed on sexual fustration and 2 wickets (albiet launched to the boundary and then caught), gave him a joint man of the match award with ste stead who is sat next to me applying undue pressure.

Ste and Paxford took the early, decent wickets (where the ball hits the wickets), to put Lothersdale on the back foot.

A nurdling middle order bowling effort was livened up by Kunz and young Malcolm at the tail end with 5 wickets from loose bowling and boundary catching (on Kunz's behalf) .

Lotherdale finished for 80 for 9.

Warriors opening batsmen Dziedzic nurdelled along with lucky, glancing boundaries (does he get any others?) and, dizzy with success, was out next ball for 9. Rob Unsworth made a decent knock with his magic bat.

Kunz then rampaged his way to 22 in only 3 overs as he released his sexual frustration on the ball.

After the usual collapse Baines and Ste Stead, senior nurdlers in extremis, restored some confidence and saw woodside home with a solid knock at the end.
