Bluekipper take on the Everton Stewards in Netherton this Saturday, as they defend their unbeaten record in 2008 (1 played / 1 win). Stalwarts, Lard, John Doolan, Ernie, Joe Parky, Lavo, Boyd and all the cast from The Goonies will be fighting for places in Captain Lards team selection. Lavo has pulled a master stroke in not telling Lawro that there is a game, so he may get a full ninety minutes this time round, but the rumour mill has it that Jimmy Krankie may be lined up for a second half stint in the sticks.

Ernie is carrying an injury, well more of a lager hump round his mid riff, and young Luke Creedon has been called up to fill Ernie's boots, which really is not to hard. Lard himself is fighting injury but should be passed fit, after falling over mullered last week after an unfortunate incident involving a tray of Stella, a dog and the cast of It Ain't Half Hot Mum. Terry Waite the Beirut hostage cannot make it due to his allotment duties, but Mrs Miggins will be on hand with the pies at half time, the usual's Steak and Kidney, but now the fantastic Chicken Tikka to boot, very nice indeed. Graham Stuart Everton 1995 FA Cup hero cannot make the line up due to baby sitting duties (serious), but thankfully Postman Pat, Bod and Pootle have all been passed fit. Brendan Grant Marine FC's all time greatest player (on line vote circa 2007) will be making a second half appearance as in the morning he has to finishing my artexing and coving !! Boris Johnson is taking time out of his London Mayoral Electoral Campaign to come along to support the event, citing that he needs to see Sausage's hair as that who he models himself on. Ken Livingstone when asked to attend in the interest of fairness told us to fuck off, well up yours Ken hope you lose to Boris next week.

Ped from Bluekipper FC is in the squuuaaaaad as he has a spare kit. Kipper as normal is finding the string for his specks for his cameo appearance, and Sausage and Jogger have the most important job of keeping the ale cold on the line. If anyone is daft enough to come and watch the match, it is an 11am kick off at Netherton Civil Service Ground. Please bring a quid as a bucket will be on the line with all the proceeds going towards the Everton Former Players Foundation.

Lard says: 'D'oh'

Everton Stewards come up against The Real Bluekipper on Saturday, and unlike Bluekipper FC, they do pose a serious threat to our unbeaten run in 2008. Honours such as 2007 Steward League Champs, followed up their success in the League in 2006. They are hosting the Stewards Cup in a few weeks time, when teams from across the country will be heading up to Merseyside for the Stewards Tournament being held over the second May Bank Holiday at the Netherton Civil Service Grounds.

Everton Stewards manager Paul Carlisle is hopeful of success in our duel. He asked me to look through their website for photos of their team, which I did. Sod the lads in the squad these snaps are far better. Let battle commence.

Paul Carlisle says: "We are hopeful of success, and arnt these birds fit."
