Some rather worrying news ahead of my trip with Bath City to Braintree tomorrow…
I think it would be wise to wear body armour instead of football shirts and take an axe instead of a scarf.
At least if City play badly, we can put the players in the stocks and throw rotten food at them.
AN Essex football club is helping police investigate an incident in its stadium car park which saw a man shot with a crossbow.
Braintree Town Football Club has been co-operating with detectives who are looking into the circumstances surrounding an assault in the town in which a man was hit with a bolt.
Police were contacted shortly before 10pm on Tuesday night by a member of the public who said a man had been shot in the club’s car park.
Officers arrived to find the injured man with a bolt in the side of his torso.
The 25-year-old man from Ware, in Hertfordshire, was conveyed to Chelmsford’s Broomfield Hospital where he underwent surgery to remove the bolt.
He is currently in a stable condition.
An Essex Police spokesman said: “We’re keen to speak with anyone who saw any suspicious activity in the football club’s car park between 7pm and 10pm on Tuesday night.”
Investigating officers believe the assailant drove off in a dark-coloured Audi. At this stage, there are no further details about those in the car.
Anyone with information in connection with this attack is urged to contact detectives at Braintree police station on 0300 333 4444 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.

In his role as a politician and Prime Minister, I despise Boris. However, even I felt (almost) sorry for him, when this old git approaches and starts to discuss dog poo in a pub carpark.

About Me
So you stumbled across my blog. No doubt after searching for something bizarre on Google. Before you hit that 'Back Button', why not stay and have a read for a few minutes?
If you are after a website which gives advice on how to hack an iPhone X, download the latest Steven Seagal movie, or view nudy ladies, you've come to the wrong place and may now press 'Back'.
However, if you would like a lifestyle blog, written by a 30-something chap, living in Bath (England), feast your eyes on this.
You won't discover how to copy PlayStation 4 games. What you will find is a blog, covering life in the West Country, the highs and lows of supporting two unsuccessful football teams, while sharing a house with a wife and rabbit.
All written by a man, somewhere on the sanity-scale between normal and eccentric.
