36) TWTD Issue 96 Player Profiles
Written by Daniel Harvey And James Powell   
Saturday, 21 March 2009
Raydon Athletic have not had a game since the last TWTD.
 
This was largely due to several games being postponed due to freezing conditions. It was also slightly more largely due to Manager Roland Peters deciding to try and scrape snow off the Clockton Road pitch using a snow plough he borrowed off his cousin who runs Mendlesham Snow Plough Museum. He succeeded in scraping the snow off but must have had it on slightly the wrong setting as he also scraped off the top 10 inches turf and soil, rendering the pitch ‘buggered’ for the foreseeable future. The desperate sowing of grass seeds in Mid February at temperatures of minus four has yet to bear fruit so it may be some time before Raydon are able to play home games.
 
In the meantime, due to popular demand for some kind of Raydon article (and due to Woolworths and Zavvi deciding to opt out of planned adverts in the fanzine, leaving a space), Malcolm Baggio has put together a ‘who’s who’ of the current Raydon squad to bring any new followers of the team up to speed with the key personnel in what some have called “The greatest fictional football team of the modern era”.

Due to the credit crunch TWTD bigwigs have ruled that the stupid introductions to Raydon Ramblings must be slashed to save on ink costs. However, we successfully negotiated that the introductions could be retained and instead printed in slightly smaller non-bold font. So, here goes:

Novice heart surgeon Malcolm Baggio has made a gaping incision in the Raydon chest cavity and is rummaging around trying to find the Ramblings heart. Bingo! There it is! All he’s got to do now is connect a couple of tubes together and the Raydon Ramblings will be flowing once more…….
