Nickname: erm...Nick

He is: too into his cricket

Player Profile:
Nick joined the club in a time of need for the Reserve team in Season 2003/4, but established himself as one of the first choice strikers after a series of hard working performances. His strike rate left a little to be desired at first, it was suggested this was due to him watching Sergei Rebrov too much, but two fine strikes at league leaders Milford & Witley saw his confidence increase. However, off the pitch his scoring record seemed destined to failure until he stumbled across a foolish girl at work who was significantly shorter than him therefore couldn't see that he really isn't that good looking, and for some reason even found his jokes amusing. Therefore he now sees himself as some kind of Theo D. Wilderbeast in the luurve department, although his mates are quick to remind him of his efforts in the past, particularly on a lads holiday to Tenerife where the "girl" he snogged was estimated at being in her early forties. In the close season, Nick keeps his fitness up by playing his favourite pastime of Cricket, which unfortunately means you are unlikely to see him in the Old Boys shirt much before October or much after March.
