Profile:
Graham "Johnno" Johnston aka "Shakin Stevens" officially joined the club in 2003 after consistent nagging from his work colleagues (Board, Hudd and Colwill). He brings to Blagdon his boyish charm together with his ability with the bat to play some scintillating and classic strokes. His debut league 50 at the start of the 2003 season proved what a gifted batsman he is.
He also bowls medium pace swingers although has recently been hauled before the ECB for a suspect action. It is thought that this slightly bent round arm action has formed itself from overmilking of cows when being brought up on a farm in Congresbury. Johnno also plays football at a very high level for the village of Congresbury where he plays as a midfield dynamo.
