   Hi all, I was on the pitch at the time all of this was happening and I recall the conversation being something like this....

After Baldrick said to EC "you need to lose a bit of weight and grow a bit"

EC replied "are you injured?" Baldrick "no why" EC "Because you are walking a bit gingerly" Baldrick "that doesn't make sense???"

Sorry Baldrick but it made sense at the time and still does now.

I'm not sure it is he who lacks the wit my friend!?

Anyway, I always thought what goes on the pitch stays on the pitch? Clearly you are quite bitter about it all?

   I caught the end of the game and to be fair to this Ed guy I thought you were injured mate. That's from a fellow ginger too.

Wit is spelt without an 'h' as well.

Were you on Time Team?

   "are you injured?? "No, why?" "because your walking ginger" "That doesnt even make sense"

You know you have zero whit when you have to explain an off the cuff joke.
