The December Monkey Business, No. 205, is now out and is chock full of stuff (we thought we'd exceed the limit but just stayed inside it), and you can read it at https://www.monkeybizz.net where you'll find the usual MB mix of stuff, only more of it.

Besides the normal opinion, cartoons, spoof adverts and general silliness, this edition includes volume 2 of the Festive Poolie Songbook (12 songs about current goings-on at North-East league clubs) and the now-traditional Monkey Business calendar.

We'll take this opportunity to pass on best festive wishes from all at Monkey Business to all Poolies. The last 12 months, if you ignore the last few weeks, has been brilliant for Pools. Let's hope the next 12 months is equally brilliant.
