Yeah, cos Arry will always honour a contract ?

Good to see a top innings from Jennings. Sri Lanka not an easy place to make a big score, and we've had two young players make excellent tons.

Understand Henry wanting to go there given the connection, but I suspect he may have bitten off more than he can chew. Looks more like a job for whoever is the French equivalent of Allardyce or Pulis!

People are forced to make a public statement about not wearing one - due to being abused for not wearing one...

Once again England's batting seems to look much better once you get past the actual batsmen! ?

Rooney gets England testimonial ?

Every now and again he looks totally brilliant, but for the most part you watch him thinking come on then, show me why you're worth the money. I'm waiting. Still waiting. Oh you've been subbed.

Imagine how bad you have to be at football to not get a contract with Central Coast "worst team in the A-league" Mariners, despite being worth squillions of dollars in marketing.

Usain Bolt no longer training with Central Coast... didn't get the deal. Not a big surprise!

That's awful. And pretty funny.

Yeah, told him he was a disgrace and shouldn't be allowed to play cricket. If that's enough to make Warner walk off, I can't seem him coping very well when he returns to first class cricket!

David Warner actually walked off the pitch in the middle of his innings on Saturday in protest at being sledged. David f**king Warner. ?

Bruce - 4 promotions from Championship Rafa - 1 promotion No brainer!

Absolute joy to watch - the complete opposite of his punditry in fact! Great vision, and could land a pass on a penny from 8o yards. Under-appreciated by England, much like Le Tissier and Scholes.

Edibles are awesome. I gave up smoking it a year or two ago, and now enjoy an edible or two on the weekend. Once you get a decent recipe happening it's brilliant - cheap, effective, no ill-effect on your health, and a much longer buzz than having a joint. Mmmmmmm.

The Australian Football Federation are stepping in to try and help. They desperately want this deal to happen as they know it puts a rocket under the A-League's profile. I'd be surprised if a deal doesn't happen. Not sure how pissed off the rest of the squad would be to be honest. It's a total one-off situation, and wages would be paid by a third-party rather than the club. Every player stands to gain something from increased crowds and millions more people becoming interested in their club. I'm sure a lot of them quite fancy being able to say they play with Bolt, otherwise the best they can do is say they play with McCormack

I don't think I've ever been happy to be subbed in a game in all my life. Doesn't mean I'm throwing my toys out the pram. Very few players get subbed off the field with a smile on their face saying well I'm glad that's over. If you love playing, you simply want to be on the pitch all the time, and I'm sure that's the case with Jack.

In fairness to Thierry, he's come into a club whose team has been an absolute shambles this season even compared to us!

Yeah, nice one Oxford! 75 quid for a "limited edition" kit that is actually a bog-standard Puma template.

I do find it mildly galling that I now find myself liking John Terry. It wasn't supposed to be like this.

Did we really play 4 defenders, all in their preferred positions?!

For the last few years Gabby wouldn't even have been one of the best strikers in my 5-a-side league.
