Bongser’s metabolism has slowed down drastically in late middle age and he does not like cold weather. He attended Leigh’s first game of last season but his existing colours were buried under numerous layers of clothing so he then bought a 5XL shirt that would, just about, fit over his outer coat - relative warmth with colours on display. Maybe Ant Walker also feels the cold?
There now follows a cautionary tale for anyone considering adopting this approach. Bongser knocked off work early for an evening match early last season. He had a couple of scoops in The Egerton Arms in Salford during which consumption he donned his outer shirt. This necessitated his mate, Oirish Mick, freeing Bongser’s coat hood and pulling the shirt down at the back. Arriving home after the match, Bongser found that Natalie (aka “la jeunesse Mme de Bongseur”) had already turned in. It took forty minutes of self-wrestling (no, not that sort) for Bongser to squirm out of the shirt!!
