There’s a simple way to eliminate time wasting but no one has the appetite for it.Have a system like in rugby league where the clock is controlled by someone in the stand.The second the ball goes out of play referee calls time off and the game clock stops immediately.This would eradicate all time wasting overnight as even those numpties who play…[Read more]

Duly noted your criticism of the men’s game @desperate-dan and agree with it but at least the men aren’t all sleeping with each other unlike the women.Must be all that testosterone.

Hey isn’t that a level from Piggy Farm?Or should we say Twiggy Farm?

Not as good as the 81 series of course.

Unexploded bomb in Penarth today.

Very appropriate.

Sometimes we’re just waiting for @hunnybunny to go off.

Miss August. I think this might be the best photo I have ever taken. That’s not saying a lot but this shot says an awful lot about Twiggy.

Brilliant match, brilliant series.  Best since 2005? It think yes, just outclassing 2023 Ashes. Either side could have won 4-0 so 2-2 fair although yes, I think England did shade it.

Lucy Bronze played the Euros with a broken leg and in this series players played on with a broken finger, a broken foot and a broken shoulder. And yet most male…[Read more]

Not sure how I feel about this series ending 2-2 don’t think India quite deserved it though 3-1 would’ve been harsh.2-1 and a half?

Would have been the highest successful run chase at The Oval by a mile and let’s be honest the absence of Woakes as bowler in 2nd inn and batter in both was the real difference.

Just wish we could find a good…[Read more]

Does he have a choice?  England were aiming at Pant’s foot so India will aim for Woakes’ shoulder. It better not come to that. Please.

This test series wasn’t going to end tamely was it?Wonder if Woakes will bat one handed.

Didn’t see any of the Euros myself but picking up bits and pieces from various news feeds it seemed to me that a lot of people in the English media were hoping England would fail so they could have a pop at Wiegman(mostly women).I don’t get that at all given what she’s achieved and can only put it down to jealousy and that English disease of…[Read more]

Agree with you on the equal pay issue. If women are treated equally (and Barton does not) then there is no financially sustainable case for equal pay at the moment. It’s not like tennis, yet. No need to get abusive about it. Anyway we know women don’t know how to play football properly. They just haven’t got the hang of diving, simulating pain,…[Read more]

I must admit as bad as the symptoms are I’d rather get it over and done with in a week than have to deal with long covid some of those cases are quite scary.

Yeah The 5th was great but my covidness means I’ll have to pass on the skinfull and Ukraine bashing.Gives me something to do next weekend.

Dan you ruined my monologue.
