- A hairdresser with blunt scissors
- A stocky storeman from “On the Buses”

Charlee
Our Saudi swinga' and spinna’ returns for a tour de fource. The team missed Charlee’s satirical commentaree on our games last year, Two years ago we went viral ! This is not the same viral that Randee spreads. The boundaree bar’s profits will be a lot healthier this year. Hope they have a plentiful supply of bananas and the good stuff !
-
Crumpee
Tour number 3 for Crumpee. Crumpee drops into Chiang Mai for a week of cricket amongst his worldwide travels. At any given time of the year Crumpee’s location is frequentlee unknown. While currentlee not on Interpol’s most wanted, Crumpee’s reputation for accumulating runs, wickets and other assets are well known. Recentlee recovered from a debilitating back injuree incurred while working on Hammer’s back . . .
-
Hammee
Hammee returns for tour 3. Our wily 6 broken fingered off-spinner, with onlee one eye is looking forward to tossing 'em up and seeing where they land. A devout blues fan and fanatical Freo Dockers fan, if Hammee is late for a game or can’t be found at night he will be at that cr*p Aussie Pub or at the Blues Boys Bar.
-
JPee
JPee returns for tour many ! Last year JPee recovered from a broken arm to play at The Sixes. He’s a bloke who goes the extra yard for his mates. Unfortunately, like the rest of us he has lost the odd yard over the years. JPee may have lost a yard on the field but rumour has it, his length remains unchanged off the field. Is that a banana in your pocket JPee …………..!!??

KCee
KCee is the man we have been looking to recruit all these years................not cos he's any good but just so he can listen to Randee's gripes all week ! The hockey superstar makes his sixes cricketing debut for Blythswood on the field but is a seasoned veteran off the field as Randee's agony aunt !
-
Lovee
Lovee returns for tour 12. Bigga’ but not betta’ ! The depth of the squad may require Lovee to take more responsibilitee with the bat this year but having only faced 5 balls all season for his club, this is not a man in form. But “form is transient, class is permanent” ……………………Lovee’s form ran out many years ago !
-
Rajee
Rajee is back for all of our tours. Our skippa’ is capable of leading from the front and the rear. In semi-retirement cricketing-wise Raj still has all the shots and will no doubt have his fair share of them at the fine sessions.
-
Randee
Randee returns for tour too many ! Randee is our opening strike bowler. Strike meaning he gets struck a lot ! Randee’s line is usually respectable on the field but according to reliable sources in the bars of Chiang Mai, Randees’ length is short of a good length. He doesn’t bowl many maidens over.

Sidnee
We've got Moohan, Super Sid Moohan !
I just don't think you understand !
He's now a Blythswood man, he's better than we've had !
We've got Super Sid Moohan !
