  1. He was dreadful today, absolute crap.
  2. Very poor from England, but I wouldn't expect anything less. What I would give for a batting line-up of Strauss, Cook, Trott, KP, Bell and Prior. Also, I'm not quite sure what Mark Wood has done to deserve a game over Woakes. He's bowled in this game at Woakes' usual speed, has a much worse test average and Woakes is a better batsman.

    Tickets

    Got kicked out of the website when I got onto the ticket page, now can't get back into the queue. F*ck sake.
  4. Hopefully Hain can really kick on in the four day stuff to help to soften the blow of Trotty deciding to call it a day.

    Liverpool

    Hope Madrid batter them in the final, bunch of w*****s.
  6. I think it's ridiculous, especially considering the huge amount of subsidy's provided by the taxpayer to get the thing built in the first place.
  7. Here comes the 20 minute Joshua ring walk.
  8. Why Vince was brought back into the team I will never know. Failed during his first audition in the summer of 2016 against Sri Lanka and Pakistan, failed against Aus in the winter yet still gets a game ahead of Livingstone. Woakes has every right to feel hard done by as well, there's no way Wood will get through the test match without picking up some sort of knock.
  9. 1 year bans for Smith and Warner, 9 month ban for Bancroft according to reports in the Aussie press.
  10. So much for Smith saying Lehmann didn't know about it...
  11. This comment on the Guardian sums up how I feel about those c****...

    Snow Watch!

    Went into town for a few pints and left around 6ish. A 30 minute journey home turned into an hour and a half walk home in the snow. Absolutely **** miserable.
  13. On the subject of Federer, he's the GOAT without doubt. I hope he carries on until the 2020 Olympics to add the Olympic single gold to his list of achievements as it's the only thing missing IMO. With Murray, I think he's got possibly got one last swansong at Wimbledon in him and then that will be it. Hopefully Edmund can build on his fantastic Aus Open and start making progress in other GS and Masters 500/1000 tournaments.
  14. It was 06-07 that Sheffield United were our closest game, as West Brom and SHA had been relegated the season before.
  15. Agreed, Curran has been treated appallingly. Can't believe that James Whittaker is still in a job.
  16. Test squad for NZ: Joe Root (Yorkshire), Moeen Ali (Worcestershire), James Anderson (Lancashire), Jonny Bairstow (Yorkshire), Stuart Broad (Nottinghamshire), Alastair Cook (Essex), Mason Crane (Hampshire), Ben Foakes (Surrey), Liam Livingstone (Lancashire), Dawid Malan (Middlesex), Craig Overton (Somerset), Ben Stokes (Durham), Mark Stoneman (Surrey), James Vince (Hampshire), Chris Woakes (Warwickshire), Mark Wood (Durham). Can't believe that Vince and Stoneman are in the squad, whilst Ali and Wood are also very lucky to have been included.
  17. Absolutely fantastic today, best performance since the FA Cup Semi-Final against Liverpool.
  18. Even Stevie Wonder would see that Jedinak cannot play at CB.
  19. I think it's been pretty dreadful, to be honest. Alison Mitchell is good and Boycott is ok in very small doses, but other than that it's diabolical. The worst thing is the incessant talking throughout play, it's **** irritating beyond belief. Looking forward to the NZ series when Sky will be back.
  20. Woakes' best day on this tour by a mile, but Aus will still win the test quite comfortably. Out of the squad on tour this is quite comfortably our strongest XI, yet we don't look like winning a test let alone the series.
  21. If they aren't playing by 4 I think I'll call it a night.
  22. This is going to be a long long series.
  23. Everton fans have delusions of grandeur if they think they're capable of appointing anyone like Ancelotti. They have no chance of CL football and a massively disjointed squad with glaring holes in key positions. They also have no player they can sell for mega money next summer to fund an overhaul of the squad.
