They'll probably want the game replayed or something because it reminded them of Hillsborough or something.
They beat them to crown us champions amd I have never witnessed a pub carpet so wet and sticky….
To top it off we walloped United 3-1 and they had to provide us with a guard of honour onto the pitch.

Next season may be too early for him to make the first team squad, but he has a great reading of the game, plays simple, but effective football and despite being slim, battles hard for the ball.
His goal today for Blackpool

Re: other matches this weekend
I'm not an avid Cricket mate... But was simply really enjoying the 'intensity' of this game... I know the Aussies & S. Africa & New Zealand all have very good teams... England to the best of my limited knowledge can be world beaters, but are something of a seasonal Hit or Miss team.Gunnerz4life wrote: ↑Sun Oct 23, 2022 10:01 amYou are kind with your praise.

I watched the Chavs vs Mancs game last night and it was a snoozefest. They had spent half a billion on new players combined but the lack of quality was startling.

The game is all thr poorer for these two not playing more regularly. A solution needs to be found because it's a huge fixture in not only Cricket but sport in general.OneBardGooner wrote: ↑Sun Oct 23, 2022 10:06 amAn amazing ground... also the coverage is tops - I don't know the layout, but the camera shows the batsman's view and where all the ares of there pitch are reallyPerryashburtongroves wrote: ↑Sun Oct 23, 2022 10:03 amIt's England v Australia there next Friday too.OneBardGooner wrote: ↑Sun Oct 23, 2022 9:53 amI don't usually bother with Cricket...

Re: other matches this weekend
From a purely rivalry stand point England vs Australia does not hold a candle to India vs Pakistan. While it may have mellowed down over the years, there used to be a time when players effigies were burnt and buses stoned when the team lost. Even today lots of TVs get broken after this fixture .

Re: other matches this weekend
Tut tut Bard. Didn't you know you're not allowed to refer to them as batsmen anymore? They have to be called Batters now. A name that the cricket traditionalists have always frowned upon.OneBardGooner wrote: ↑Sun Oct 23, 2022 9:53 amI don't usually bother with Cricket... BUT (thanks to Drogon TV) (and Clummo! )
