Think of Mark Wright and you will recall an England centre half wearing a blood-stained bandage around his head bravely battling for his country. Well, you might if your memory was poor as that was Terry Butcher (no relation to the late Pat Butcher, who was always unpunctual).

However, another famous footballer called Mark Wright is in the news. Why? Well, he has joined Evo-Stik Central Division side, St Neots Town.

This is the Mark Wright, who appeared in TV’s TOWIE (or The Only Way is Essex Like Wot Yer Know) and was runner-up on I’m Celebrity (curiously not abbreviated to IACGMOOH). His new manager, Dennis Greene, claims that he has been signed for his football skills, but with Woodford Town from Essex as their opponents tomorrow you wonder if it is his Essex experience that Dennis is seeking.

St Neots Town are handily placed in fourth with games in hand, but there seems to be few jungle-type experiences ahead – visits to Chalfont St Peters and Marlow should ensure he finds restaurants serving better food than he would have had on IACGMOOH. .
