Will take the point against a team in that run of form. Needless foul by Fox got him a poor yellow and a needless Red. No idea who the tater was on the stream from First Row but he was awful

Lol when did Deano come on? tater never mentioned that

Guly sub isn't working get the feeling we are starting to hang on Sharp doesn't give us the controal around the box yet either

You're my ex wife aren't you. She was the only person who thought I had to be psychic 8(

Bloody heel, that's a shock England won the Rugby

Sharp FFS I thought he was a striker not a CB... Arrgh

JP's played well think he is running out of steam now

Pah that was rubbish Sharp get him off Nige!

Sharp Frost Tonight by the looks of it

Brum aren't pressing us (like Leics did) we have acres of space & time in midfield Just need that final ball now

NA has changed the shape JP much more central now

Fonte tries to be Thierry Henry in the box lol

Nope that's the coverage, it is snowing you know

Could do with having Franz Klammer on the bench

Can't see us winninng this. In fact I can't see anything. Juddervision replaced by greyvision

Tucked up nice & warm in bed with the egg chasers on the telly & waiting for DM & match fred on the wireless.

Well that was very weird. England folded like a Cheap Suit to lose 4 wickets in 40 minutes in the morning then nurdle the openers out for 28 and it looked for all the world that it would be all over today. then from Lunch time until the drinks break after tea - Nada nicht nothing. A Run rate of 2 per over, an over rate of 16.5 an hour. In 60 odd overs there was ONE extra - a No Ball. Ball struck Pakistani pads bringing on appeals twice in that time (except when Monty went to an outside leg stump line to bore us all into submission) So here is a very simple new tactic, as we used to say up at CBCC. yer gotta bat in yer 'ands - use it. Younis & Azhar showed what you can do if you play each ball on merits and - wait for this STUNNING REVELATION Use the BAT to HIT THE BALL. Ball seemed to be turning square for Monty. Think we were screwed when they got more than 50 runs in front. Some abject fielding by Morgan as the day went on I got cold and came home (no I appreciate not cold as in you lot cold but a nippy draft was blowing the Dubai Saints Flag & I was reaching the point where I needed to take it down to wrap meself up in) apparently they had 4 hour queues for taxis last night - they took the hint today and laid on buses back to the nearest shopping Mall (MoE) Had a chat with a nice chap over on hols from Cornwall - Plymouth and part time Truro fan. Oh they hate the skates for getting away with it down that way, believe me. There they are holding on in L2 by their finger nails (and Truro have big tax man problems as well) and yet they see the skates not selling anyone and thinking wtf... Oh & general consensus from the fag smokers (fecking 60 stairs each way when you want to smoke) Send the entire England team out to play cricket on Village Pitches, puddings, u****, unrolled, the stuff most of us had to put up with for years. They may start to use their brains and their bats again

NOOOOOOOOOOOARRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH After a month of planning. I'm just about to head off to the Test match for my "proper" day out and discover. It's an Islamic Holiday today, it's a Dry Day. No beer. Oh FFS

All well & good Doc, but to make real bucks out of a course & a career change then go for Plumber or if you have more time Gas Fitter/Boiler Engineer

I love how this thread has brought out so many brilliant posts by lurkers, new posters & the likes Quality riposte our new friend

Great post and one the media are agreeing with.

OK so who else thinks that JoCa is a front for Rupes? IF ONLY he had mentioned a Radio Station & World Class catering

Woo HOO! It's a Lager vs Ale thread but I still get a Golf plug in.... Going to Singapore? Stick to the Tiger.....

In defence. I came out here in '93 Up to that date UK Guinness tasted like watered down gnat's p1ss so there was a huge taste difference. Your post confirms that I guess the same applies now with UK lagers now matching the 5% instead of Amstel Light alcohol levels, so there HAS been an improvement. Just would be nice if some pubs actually cleaned their pipes regularly.

Yeah and tried some made in Singapore once - arrgh mega nasty. One of my employees in my previous role won a comp in TimeOut Dubai to be a Guinness Tester for a whole 3 months, included a trip to Dublin Factory for training then a weekly tour by bus of the bars here with the whole kit - White Coat, Toolkit etc. We ended up giving her the morning after off (in return for her weekly supply of a case of the stuff). I met up with them one night (after a Black Sabbath gig) you have never seen such a mess! 3 months that ran - 12 tours.... Damn I was jealous
