Diary - Wednesday 30 June 2004

30 June 2004

Wednesday 30 June is what they call a slow news day. If the Diary were the six o'clock news then a day like today would have me reaching for 'remarkable' new scientific research showing that if you don't drink much beer then you won't get drunk, or something; but all that can be found of note in the small world of Grimsby Town Football Club is an (admittedly excellent) interview with Ashley Sestanovich on the club's official website ("The groundsman has done a magnificent job! Let me on there!") and a bittersweet Grimbo Telegraph story about a talented local kid once coached by the Diary's old teacher Geoff Bartholomew who has spurned GTFC, Scunny and Hull and decided instead that his future interests would be best served by signing for Donny Rovers. Ah, the times; ah, the morals.

This column will not be brought to you tomorrow by your regular Diary, as I am off to get rained on with Simon Wilson in Headingley and possibly watch a bit of cricket in between. Guest Diary - are you out there, mate? Can you make it a day early this week?
