intrigue at braintree...

[Uncle Urchin]

I heard that a braintree player was badly beaten up on tuesday after the game up there only to be met with utter silence when I asked the ryman bretheren if anyone knew about it....and then I saw this....

 

if it is the braintree player (and I am not saying it is).....why is the press release (from Chairman Lee) not saying so...
