    Ok - I know it's in the Mail but according to this article sportsmen who choose to wear the colour red are more likely to be winners because they are 'dressing to kill'

    Perhaps it doesn't apply if you have to wear red rather than choosing to wear it but just for a bit of fun - which Red is most testosterone fuelled when they put the shirt on? Now and in the past?

    Stephen Dawson currently for me.

    And whilst I never saw him play possibly Skinner Normanton in the past? Or even Chris Morgan?

    Cardiff get promoted as soon as they switch to red shirts... coincidence? I think not.

    Marlon?

    I sometimes consider which Tarn player I would most like to have on my side in a scrap or alongside me in the trenches.

    Dawson is the current title holder, past winners include Oooh Gerry Gerry, Morgan, Stumpy Sheridan, Jacob Burns, Neil Austin and Tommy Wright.
