Season starts with London-wide bus campaign

As a prelude to the forthcoming season, the incoming captain Eds Copleston has launched an advertising campaign across London.

The advert (above) is at the moment displayed on the side of a No. 77 bus running from Green Park through Parliament Square, the Embankment and down to Clapham.

"We don't need players, we need support and we need national recognition for being the best old boys cricket club in the country," gushed Copleston. "The club will grow stronger and a more captive audience can only be a good thing. If we can push the advertising global for the website, the public will really start to take interest.

"There is no reason we can't get a thousand people to support a big cup game for instance. I see this as a natural step for the club, the dream is alive."

Copleston is currently receiving therapy and should be available for the start of the summer.
