What Was All That About? A Season Reasoned: The Bulls: Jim Cooper

A review of the season: I've thrown these questions at all team players and will publish them as they trickle in.

First in the book is The Bull's Jim Cooper.
Coops has taken these questions very seriously, although our photographer Di caught him contemplating another sonorous subject altogether:
Chips or mash?


Highest high?

Holding on for a win in 5 against Chesham Bois Seniors. Wasn’t playing well but gritted it out for an important team win.

Lowest low? 

Losing 3:0 to that fat bloke from Holmer Green 3 who only turned up to ogle Lisa behind the bar.

Funniest moment? 

Somebody naively enquiring from Bob what had gone wrong with his marking effort in the Trevor vs Gazza head-to-head. I ran for cover!

Most controversial moment? 

Inexplicably losing my rag when playing Cpt Fielding Bear and totalling my favourite racket against the wall...

Team player of the year? 

Tough decision this one but ultimately I think it has to go to Natalie. So many of her games have gone to 5 and she’s pulled out some great wins: James Wyatt, Seb Monson, Mick O’Sullivan and from 2 love and 8 nil down last week against Chesham Bois Seniors. Great commitment and quality squash.

Team donkey (and why)? 

I don’t think we’ve had one this year. All the Bulls have performed.

Quote of the year? (overheard on or off court.) 

I liked the description of the Chesham Bois Seniors mini-bus "smelling faintly of piss and waiting to take them back to the home."

Describe your captain in 3 words... 

Collegial, controlled, consumptive, camelesque (oh that’s 4)
