NEW Battersea Badgers skip Jan Marchant has made an astonishing admission – his side CHEATED in the Super Test last year.
Badger Jan, who looks just like Will from The Inbetweeners, dug himself into a hole when he met club members at the opening of our sponsor’s new cricket shop.
After a drink or two, he then let slip a series of admissions to our fixtures secretary Dan Sherman.
Jan admitted:
* The Super Test side was full of ringers
* He cyber-stalks The Road on our website
* He reads everything we say on our Forum
* He once had to stop himself taunting us
Dan said: “According to Jan, a large proportion of their test team were not paid up members and the game shouldnโt count towards the stats.
“This amazing admission comes on top of the Badgers’ controversial decision in 2011 to field different players for each of the two days.
“Jan also confessed to cyber-stalking the club, lurking in our forum to get the inside track on what we were thinking.
“After reading your post to both captain candidates about how we are going to beat the Badgers, voyeur Jan joked he considered breaking his cover to taunt us with writing โYou canโt beat us!โ”
Dan had been out with club stalwart Raju Mazumder on Saturday attending the launch of the It’s Just Cricket store in Westmoreland Road, Walworth.
The shop is run by Paul Cole, himself a Badger who has played against The Road, but not in the Super Test.
Last year The Road were comprehensively beaten by the Badgers side.
