Why did the chicken cross the road ?
The old age question , Why did the chicken cross the road?. On Sunday the reason was to try to evade brummies’ wheels.
West Brom John,as he is affectionately called ,is a regular visitor to our trailing world and has been for a number of years having retired from flogging burgers to unsuspecting brummies. When it comes to picking out winners he is mustard and knows his onions. With his wife they reside at the farm just to the left of the Helton finish. Where on Sunday after the fourth trail they returned ,only to find the farmer in possession of a lost hound, being the person he is ,he immediately turned his car around and proceeding back to the venue at great speed.
Now this is where the chicken appears, apparently a Rhode Island Red, who at that very instance decided to cross the road, alas it met an untimely end under the wheels of Sterling John. Now this chicken was the farmers pride and joy and it was now well plucked ( I think that’s what he said)
John dug deep into his pocket and produced a white fiver to compensate the farmer and his wife and the promise of a free burger if they happened to be outside Villa Park , the hawthorns , Molineux, St Andrews ,Ricoh arena, compliments of John’s Son. And still the unanswered question ” Why did the chicken cross the road” ? Perhaps it was expecting a monsoon.?
