Upminster 2nd XI Versus Wanstead 2nd XI - THEFTINCIDENT
Posted by Wanstead
There was an incident during our game against Upminster 2's on Saturday that Iwould like you to make known to all other clubs. When we arrived at the groundthere was a chap talking to the Upminster Captain saying that he has moved tothe area from Croydon, previously played for Old Whitgiftian CC, and wanted tojoin Upminster. During our innings he sat with us and engaged in general cricket chat and seemed like a nice bloke.

When it came to us going out to field we wanted to lock our valuables in ourchanging room but the key, which they always leave in the door, was missing soinstead we asked the bar staff to keep our valuables bag behind the bar for us.
Whilst we were fielding this 'new guy' was in the club house and was heard tobe on his phone saying things like 'we've got 3 wickets now' and 'Dave's gotanother wicket, looks like we're going to win' stuff like that to give theimpression he was with us. He then went up to the bar and said 'can I have theaway team valuables as my son needs his mobile phone'. The barman thoughtnothing of it and handed it over and the guy went outside, went througheveryones wallets taking £120 cash, 5 or 6 phones, a watch and a Sat Nav. Hethen went and handed the bag back to the barman.

We watched the whole thing back on Upminster's CCTV and, while you could notsee who the bag was given to, the barman described this guy to a tee. It wasalso clear from the footage that the barman played no part at all in the theft.

The guy that robbed us was late 30's, white, stocky build, and about 6ft tall.

Absolutely no fault lays with Upminster CC and they were really helpful intrying to help get to the bottom of what happened. We think that this guyprobably took the key out of the door earlier in the day. He was clearly a proand was actually at the ground for the best part of 5 hours before doing this!

Please could you warn all other clubs in the league and circulate this guysdescription.
