Another "Hole In One" Controvesry....

When Team Manchesters top number two player, Neil Guyton, was publicly disgraced for his "I got a hole in one but nobody saw it" antics, the SCC board was happy to wash their hands of the scum that surrounded the story, but it seems that the players haven't learnt.

Nick Brooker, still single, claimed to have succesfully secured his first hole-in-one at the weekend, whilst playing a round of golf with his 'friends'. He had claimed that he had 'slam-dunked' his tee shot from the 14th (known as Ben's Bush to the locals) straight into the hole.

Upon questioning his so called playing partners they seemed to recall the incident in quite a different manner. Local blind man Mr A Jones, 23, had accompanied Nick on his round that afternoon,"I quite clearly remember Nick's tee shot as he seemed quite annoyed that he had shanked it into the woods. When we got near to the green we had to look for his ball in the trees whilst Nick said,'I'll go and check the hole in case it got a lucky bounce off the tree and rolled in!' And as luck would have it, it had. I still don't trust that fella, i can't see but i can certainly see through his lies." Strong words from a respected man, i'm sure you will agree.

In an also unfortunate twist of events, Harborne Golf club has been closed today and has been stripped of it's licence to be a golfing playground due to having larger than regulation size holes. It appears that there was a deal on in B&Q last weekend and the club thought it would save themselves some money by buying 18 buckets.

Second City? I don't think so.
