NO BALL puns please...

I love cricket and actually do follow the Bokke if they are in England, SA or the Windies.

And yes, it is expensive.

So my mates got me to play in a village game and I took my dads 35 year old grey nichols bat (all taped up at the bottom) out for one last hoorah, got 56 and was happy and sad in many ways.

Anyway better stop now, only girls cry...right.

Anyway the England travelling fans are called the 'Barmy Army' and are by far the best cricket supporters in the world and even ricky ponting (aussie captain) acknowledged this.

When they play in australia a lot of the grounds keep them apart in small pockets because they sing/dance/play a trumpet etc and generally make the atmosphere brilliant and they think this is an advantage to England so they try and quieten them down.

Fekin glad they are not from the emirates, you wouldn't have to split them up, thats for sure. :shock: :lol:
That's actually a really good story. I'm glad you are able to remember your dad so fondly. I'm only just getting used to being without mine and the memories are all a bit cloudy right now. I do know that dad played minor county cricket for hertfordshire. He held a couple of records for them that stood for many years. I don't know about know though. Maybe I should try and find out.

Sorry for not posting back on this earlier Spuddy but am not on the ball (pardon the pun) at present but yes you should deffo find out, i know i would.

Your dads cricketing feats sound great mate and something to be proud of, now i shouldn't tell you this but my dad had trials with manure in footie and if he had made it thats who i would have supported because he meant that much to me.
