The A1 Arse-Bandits Part 1 of 3

Time to annoy a few teams closer to home...
Arlesey Town FC

Miles from the Holy City - 38
Population of town - 5700
Ground Capacity - 2900
Home Colours - Light and dark blue
Nickname - The Blues (Wow, how imaginative!)
Average Home Attendance Last Season - 170

"Must Know" Facts - Managed by former Poppies "star" Zema Abbey, or at least did last season....The town has a smaller capacity than Non Park!  And....er.... did we mention Zema Abbey?


Bedford Town FC
Carol's rear - What your
open palm was made for!

Miles from the Holy City - 27
Population of town - 80,000
Ground Capacity - 4000
Home Colours - All blue
Nickname - The Eagles
Average Home Attendance Last Season - 292

"Must Know" Facts - Bedford is the birthplace of a number of notables.  Comedians Ronnie Barker, John Le Mesurier and Barry Fry are old Bedfordians.  From the  world of sports there is Harold Abrahams, and toothy hottie Gail Emms.  And from the world of eminently spankable bottoms there is Carol Vorderman.


Cambridge City FC

Miles from the Holy City - 47
Population of city - 125,000
Ground Capacity - 2300
Home Colours - All white
Nickname - The Lilywhites
Average Home Attendance Last Season - 348

"Must Know" Facts - We never beat City!  They did the double over us the last time we were in the same division and then knocked us out of the FA Trophy a few years later.  Bascially, we are their Lincoln City. Former Poppy Neil Midgeley has seemingly been at Cambridge for the past 20-odd years.  Not as famous as Oxford.
