A few pints of Fosters
One of the best decisions that the board of FootballCynic.com ever made was the decision to sponsor the kit of Richard Foster of Newhall United. The centre half described by General Manager, Dan Bishop, as “Mr Dependable” has been setting Derbyshire alight this season.
Although based in Swadlincote in Derbyshire, Newhall United play in the Leicestershire Senior Division 1 – and, what’s more, have started well. With four wins from five league games, they are handily placed in third placed behind Friar Lane & Epsworth (and, as everyone knows, we don’t like teams with ampersands). Their only defeat was at the hands of runaway leaders (and curiously named) Caterpillar, who have turned into butterflies and banged in 39 goals in 7 games, though only two against Newhall United.
Newhall United have become the team to watch at home this season with their last four results sounding like Andy Murray’s latest game with wins of 6-2, 7-5 and 6-2. Richard Foster has netted four times this season, clearly inspired by his FootballCynic sponsored kit.
This weekend Newhall United face lowly Shepshed Dynamo Ressies at home – at FootballCynic HQ we will be looking out for another tennis score – 6-0, perhaps.

R U serious about a team called Caterpillar. I bet they are bit sluggish. (FootballCynic writes: You should tread carefully with this jokes about Caterpillar, Stuffed Marrow)

I don't think Caterpillar have got the legs to win the league. When they visit Newhall, we will stop Caterpillar in their tracks. I'll get me coat......(FootballCynic writes: FootballCynic can see Caterpillar rising through the leagues and eventually playing creepy Crawley)
