Headingley Test Match

[outwoodclaret]

It's a f*cking game of cricket you retard. "Veins bulging, eyes popping and states of extreme high alert." Has this dude been dragging on his crack pipe?

Well it’s not Cardus is it BT. You wouldn’t think that was the great man commenting on the Roses match at Old Trafford.

Marvelous way with words had Sir Neville,

"It is far more than a game, this cricket."

And he had those baggy-capped buggers weighed up years ago.

"The Australian temper is at bottom grim. It is as though the sun has dried up his nature."

Not hard to weigh up is it mon ami? They are mostly all derived from ex-criminal stock. I don't know why we even bother playing against the lower order.

I was brought up watching Accrington is the 50s and 60s, the vast majority of Aussie pros were bad tempered, bad losers, never take your sweater off an umpire if you can snatch it off him in a fit of pique. They haven't changed much.

My grandad used to take me to Enfield to watch Bobby Simpson. He used to sledge him for fun after a couple of pints of Lion's bitter!

Why would you go to Enfield to watch Bobby Simpson mon ami, he was pro at Accy. Are you sure it wasn't Conrad Hunte ?

I was only about 8 or 9 at the time mon ami, the mind plays horrible tricks on you as the years pass. We went over to Burnley to watch Charlie Griffiths of that I'm pretty sure and there was another one at Church but I'm buggered if I can remember who he was.

I vividly recall us going to Haslingden to watch Clive Lloyd on debut and he was smashing sixes into the Auction yard for fun.

The Lancashire League around that time was awesomely brilliant.

At Accy in four consecutive years we had Bobby Simpson, Wesley Hall, Wesley Hall and Eddie Barlow, I think Chester Watson was at Church but Sub would know better than me. For an Aussie Bobby Simpson was an exception, a decent bloke, one of the good guys.
