Divine Felons

Divine Felons are back again for the 15th year. The new recruit this year is Jumping Joe McCluskie - The Wildman of Bacup. The squad has been bolstered by the inclusion of failed cleric Jonathan JP Pereira. Still the same cricketing pedigree, just another year older. With Billy Johnson hopefully in top form (but not with bat or ball). He could be jet lagged with his sojourn in Cape Town with the England over 50s. Looking forward to a sporting tournament and a laid back time.

Divine Felons Players

  • Gary 'Big Robbo' Robertson

    Yet another of our elder statesmen still fit as a flea but just can't jump as high.

  • Greg 'The Hog' Shearer

    Everybody is looking forward to his curly perm blowing in the wind as he runs in to bowl. 'Nuff said.

  • Jonathan 'JP' Pereira

    As a founder member of the felons, JP has been definitely missed behind the timbers for the last few years as the lads have had to put up with Bill 'Jesus Hands' Johnson.

  • Joseph 'Jumping Joe' McCluskie

    Tour virgin, God help us all!

  • Keith 'Kes' Roscoe

    Ahhhhhh can't be bothered.

  • Ross 'Ice Man' Ormiston

    Our leader is now the wrong side of 60 but Mr Reliable will be out there to show the younger end what this game is all about.

  • Stephen 'Little Robbo' Robertson

    Looking forward to smacking it over the boundary rope as always. Always the first to pay and the last to leave.

  • William 'Bonking Bill' Johnson

    Bill now supplements his income as a Freddie Boswell from Bread lookalike, touring the South and South-West of England. Speciality: Opening corner shops.

Divine Felons Supporters

  • Peter 'Strawbs' Sainsbury

    Strawbs returns after a 4 year hiatus where he has been immersing himself in his hobby of model railways. No stranger to these parts having once poked Pol Pot with a stick.

  • Rob Orange

    That's his real name. Rob returns after snapping his achilles in 2015. We are hoping not to have to go to the hospital every day to visit him this year.
