PS to new cricket game

One rule should be 6 and out. i.e.The re-introduction of the gardener rule. If that had been the case Broad would have got 6 wickets as well as being plastered all over Africa. It would have also stopped him looking like he was going to start crying and running off home to bed.

New Cricket Game

Isn't it about time that the rules for cricket should be changed? It would be much fairer if players could only play for any country if they were born in the home counties of England and went to public school.

This would give England a much better chance for success.

It really is amazing that we change the rules and format of cricket but it still ends up with the same result!

If you were out late on a friday night and you were in a spot of bother which players would you turn to in a fight? Englands nerdy boys or the men who play for every other first class cricketing country. It is that obvious ! Our 'boys 'haven't got the bottle!

20 20 Cricket

English cricket must really be in a bad state. How the Aussie's must have laughed ' all around their hats' when a female 70's folk singer came out to open the batting!

MOTD

I was wondering if MOTD had shown the Middlesbrough game yet? It is 3.30am in the morning as I write this. I am sure there were a few more interesting games being played in in the Rymans league 2 that would be more worthy of national interest.

English Cricket 2

Its getting better now they have appointed a rough northern man as captain! He is obviously much better than that sad softie Michael Vaughan or that dopey looking Andrew, I went to university you know, Strauss.

Belfast Tourism

Having had visitors here on holiday in the summer it was great to see the crap areas of Belfast so well 'flagged'. It meant that it was really easy for me to show them the nicer more civilised places to visit.

English Tennis

See article below on English Cricket. (same applies!!)

Water Shortages

Last year people in the south of England wanted a pipeline from the north to supply them with water.

I was wondering if work had started or have they had enough this year.

English Cricket

If you want to know what's wrong with the England cricket team start by listening to test match special.

The home counties middle class accents would be an immediate turn off for the real young sportsmen who live in working class inner city areas. You just have to listen to the nerdy tones of Vic Marks, 'Aggers'(stiffled laugh) and of course those three losers Christopher Martin Jenkins!

The only commentator who has any real knowledge is of course G. Boycott. It is obvious the others in the 'team' can't stand his attitude because nine times out out of ten he is right and they are hopelessly wrong. The patronising old school tie way they talk to him says it all.

Cricket to them is not a sport to be played hard and won. It is a pleasant pass time to be watched in between wine and cakes!
