Spot your favourite Cincinnati player

The lull in the fixture list gives us a chance to go back to our roots and reassess our progress. Have a look at this episode of Dad's Army - there are some striking similarities to Cincinnati. The relationship between Mainwaring and Wilson is reminiscent of that between another captain and his vice. Corporal Jones's batting has something of the ex-Chairman about it. And the umpire's joy at raising his finger could apply to any one of us really.
