Martin Cheshire Veteran Martin is ’Mr Thoresby Colliery’. A legend in his own teatime, with a bat in his hand he is sheer class. Over the years (and there have been plenty of them) Chesh has scored more centuries than most of us can dream of. The square is his terrain in more ways than one, for Martin takes on the role of Head Groundsman too. Woe betide anyone who treads that hallowed turf, without written permission, from Monday to Friday. This season Chesh’s entire body is sponsored by Central
Notts Health Authority. His knees alone have been the subject of more
rebuilds than the Six Million Dollar His favourite fielding position is silly mid off, where Stevie Willis can bank on some extraordinary c&b’s off Martin’s skull. |
