When your playing Hockey what is your husband Andrew doing?

 

I'm not married to Andrew, never was and never will be!  You must be getting confused with some  one else ?  Fergal is the only gay in the village!

Remember it is better to regret something you did than something you haven't! 

 

What next for NSWHC?

 

After missing out on the David Beckham signature to LA Galaxy, we’re quite keen to put a bid in for Ronaldo of Madrid.  If that fails, Plan B is to raise the profile of the club, by sending Mark Strong and Eddy Burns onto Big Brother 8.  If that fails, we may as well just concentrate on raising the funds for the astro pitch at the club.

 

 Which member of NSWHC would you have on your side in a fight?!!

 

Anyone ginger - they're  bound to take the brunt of the punches thrown!  Or Steve Kelso -  he has connections and generally knows where people live.
