Had a chat with the Slabba a few days ago. I've persuaded him to do a monthly blog for his website, bringing us an insight into life on the tour. It'll be a bit like Jamie Baker's highly popular newspaper column for the Times which he did in 2005.
Alex is hoping for a wildcard into Redbridge but he's pre...
