November has arrived, and with it the annual tradition of men abandoning their razors for a very good cause. This weekend saw us traveling up to Peterborough, not by train, for a very much anticipated top of the table clash. We were able to dominate large parts of the game which saw us 2-0 up with only 10 minutes left to play. However, after a spirited fight back by Peterborough the game ended 2-2. Overall, a well earned point away from home which keeps us at the top of the tree.

In honour of the start of Movember I have matched every player with a famous moustache. All earned through various reasons.

Stanley – Harry Styles

• This keeper loves a short corner routine, but loves his beanie more. So who more iconic to rock a beanie and moustache look.

Bota – Hulk Hogan

• Alex rode his very first Voi last Saturday and was so astonished by its acceleration that he couldn’t hide his glee for the whole journey, stating he would be taking these bad boys out for a joy ride in the future. In keeping with his love of handlebars, I give you the notorious Hulk Hogan.

Tom – The Lorax

• This bloke loves a good tree, he just wont shut up about them. This stems from when he once asked me what my favourite tree was, confused I said a silver birch maybe. Which he replied nah its got to be the willow. Maybe I misheard the question. 

George – David Niven

• Always dressed to impress, this man is the epitome of smart casual. Collared shirt, chinos and loafers this guy doesn’t mess around. I do back this attire for any future train beers. No surprise I’ve given him David Niven, known for his debonair style and charm.

Ed – Brian Fantana

• Ed’s approach to aerials always reminds me of a certain Brain Fantana, “60% of the time, it works every time”.

Mark – Nigel Mansell

• I had the pleasure of hitching a ride to the game and back in Mark’s speedy Skoda. Let’s just say this guy knows how to drive, and use a horn. Easily beating fellow team drivers to the final destination, even when giving them a head start.

Will T – Julius Pringles

• This fella kept nicking my crisps at the pub. Poor form.

Lindars – Go Compare man

• Ben loves a spin, twirl, curl whatever you want to call it. I reckon he’s got a lovely voice as well.

Sam – Charlie Chaplin

• This guy just doesn’t talk, granted he will do something funny from time to time but hopefully he can come out of his shell a bit more.  

Pearson – Billy the Butcher

• Chris is always scything away, whether that’s on the farm or on the hockey pitch. Be aware of his swinging one arm tackles, it will come from nowhere. 

Willow – Tom Selleck

• Considered the gold standard of moustaches, and after bagging two goals with a worthy MoM display, I had to give it to him. Hopefully his ego won’t grow too big.

Tim – Steve Harvey

• Tim’s pre match team talks have generally been good so far, but some have left us scratching our heads, cant forget that infamous barber story. To help channel motivational speeches into his repertoire I have given him Steve Harvey. If you haven’t heard his speeches look up, Steve Harvey Leaves the Audience Speechless One of the Best Motivational Speeches Ever, on YouTube.

Harry – Salvador Dali

• M&S bag, Arc’teryx jacket and a flashy beamer, I can only think this bloke loves a good monthly wax as well. Pairs beautifully with Salvador Dali’s famous stiff, waxy moustache.

Eric – Mario

• Is there any position this guy can’t play? Takes me back to my childhood when Mario was a solid pick for any sport in Mario and Sonic at the Olympic games and Mario and Sonic at the Winter Olympic games. The man can do it all. 

Will B – Charlie Colin

• Charlie Colin was the bassist for the rock band TRAIN.
