On the subject of the RSPB....

"Even I can see the
York player handling
that ball!"

Mentioning the RSPB in the previous blog has just reminded me of something!  Did anyone else see the Red Kite flying over Rockingham Road on Saturday?  It did a few majestic laps around the ground, no doubt scaring the crap out of the local pigeon population (just what we need, more pigeon shit!) before disappearing back towards the rolling fields which border our fair town.

Presumably the bird of prey was looking for a flailing creature, obviously in distress, who would soon collapse to the floor and become a carcass that could be leisurely picked at.

It's just as well the bird didn't see [insert your own player or supporter name here for desired comic effect] or it would have had a field day!
