I see a good fight developed in the Western Stand yesterday, so maybe cricket fans aren't as different as we suspected rA. That said the main protagonist seemed to be wearing a Paul Gascoigne replica shirt, so maybe we were right!
Really good to hear. Just goes to show...there are more decent folk than we sometimes think around. More good than bad...hopefully, although it often doesn’t seem that way.Quote:

I rather liked the reverential silence, or rather the gentle noise coming off the crowd between overs as people swapped rubbers to correct errors in their scoring sheets. Nowadays they are more likely to swap rubbers before engaging in Ugandan activities in the bogs
and before you ask, I have witnessed that in the bogs at the Oval on a gentle Friday afternoon at a county match. It wouldn't have been tricky to get away with it though, despite the two fornicating spectators causing the crowd to dwindle by some 10%.
What a prat Broady! The worst over ever bowled in cricket leading to a world record in Tests of 35 runs!! Perhaps a good over mind if you support India!! Was it 6 no-balls in one over, unbelievable! A succession of short balls teeing Bumrah up for six after six!
From 98 for 5 to 416!! Well it is England
Missed it mac. Had the rugby on. Certainly seems to be some brain dead stuff amongst the new ‘fearless’ approach.Quote:

Very entertaining unless you play for or support England!
Beginning to think they should open with Overton, and simultaneously strengthen the bowling. Not a good day to be English today with South Africa on the horizon.Quote:
