Right  now  I'm  celebrating  the  fact  that  I  didn't  get  SKY  so  I  could  watch ( so  very  nearly  said  enjoy yell)  the  England  v West Indies  test  cricket.  After  all  the  wonderful  reports  of  how  the  team  is  building  up  into  a  World  Beating  Side  it  seems  that  it's  just  another  race  to  the  pits.  I'm  getting  the  feeling  that  watching  Sunday  football  between  a  couple  of  over age  pub  teams  will  bring  much  more  excitement  &  pleasure  until  Easter Egg  Rolling  commences  wink

I always use the Windsor knot for a tie,  once learnt is never forgotten cool

It ain't a De Mob suit you young scamp  --  Much  wider shoulders and turn-ups than that cry

I'd take any tie knot at the moment and pull it very tightly around certain players' necks surprised

I would kindly refer the correspondents to the  post I used to start this whole terrible mistake of a Topic Sniffle sniffle sob.

At least My Windsor knot held up ok for the whole day  smile

Why is it that our so-called batsmen (of which we currently have one, maybe two) can play proper crikkit shots one day, return the following day and proceed to 'perform' like they've never played Test Match crikkit?

It's so frustrating, but not nearly as much as paying a subsciption to Sky and tuning in to find it's not even being broadcast! Some phone company has the rights! Grrrrrrr! Having to tune in to Tinternet wireless and watching snippets of clips was not what I signed up for. I may have to go upstairs for a review. frown

It is all turning into another car crash of a series, XT  yell.

 

Ooops , perhaps I should not have used quite that phrase, especially before the Grand Prix takes place & the title is decided  embarassed.

Ahem! Car crash indeed!

I wonder if Frank Williams is resting peacefully, or indeed, if he was a crikkit fan? His racing team certainly spoiled Lewis Hamilton's chances of becoming world champion so maybe he could put the mokkers on the Aussies?!

Yet another shambles of a squad sent over seas to make fools of themselves.

No further comments likely to be forth coming.

I’ve thought of a way we can keep some ashes. Put the entire squad,s return tickets into an ashtray and burn them, then make the useless beggars work their passage back home on a banana boat or similar

Two words sum up the lot of them. Absolutely and Pathetic. They are an embarrassment and a disgrace. They should set off home now and give the Aussies the series because they’re not going to win any of the remaining three matches are they?

They seem to think that because they’re middling at the  crash bang wallop form of the game they can play the five day game. They’re deluded they aren’t capable of taking a match to five days are they?

Now I need to go and lie down in a darkened room
