panicking all over the pitch apparently

Steve Davis coming on... So that's where he went when he hung up his cue

lmfao post of the year

Yep that's what my mate there says But I found a case of Brune in the local booze shop at the weekend - now THAT was a find. Not as good as our favourite - Tsing Tao tinnies but it WAS a special treat nice run by Skacel

Bayern winning 10-1 on aggrgate at this stage of the champs league Focus Will focus

either you saw a photo of me or opened a bottle of Leffe Brune.... or was it the score?

Surman off Wotton on

starting to panic and give away silly free kicks crowd getting edgy and that's just the cricket!

yes Perry!

Email-of-the-hour from Nabeel. "Monty is appealing more than the Red Cross." Nice one from circinfo online commentary meanwhile the footie seems to have livened up a bit

I thought there was supposed to be a big crowd tonight. Where are they all? it's very quiet on the radio

Apparently Dinesh Ramdin went for a loose slash outside the off stump. I thought they had rules about doing that in public, even in the Windies

Wow an on the spot txt report from a mate with a Birds Eye view at SMS Getting overrun in midfield Need width or spread the game 2nd half will be better as they tire, they can't press like this for 90 mins HTH

Umpriring standards have plumaged since Dickie Bird retired

Great, can I still drink my beer out on the wing? Bit worried about where the ashtray would be though.... Which is my way of saying with wonky cruciate ligament and a dodgy cartlidge and about 16 years past my retirement as a right sided clone of psycho I would love to but ain't no way the rest of the team could stop laughing or that I would need open heart surgery after the warm up!

Wow the cricket looks exciting. But judging by here the footy ain't

OK, darn missed this due to being incoherent all weekend from the rugby 7's beer marathon for 4 days. I once coached Coombe Bissett FC for a while until I got bored with loosing my voice every Saturday for no reason whatsoever, but MOST importantly I have been to Amsterdam, so I believe that I am MORE THAN qualified to act as a manager for the evening. Sounds like a good use of air miles to me, and would be up to pay a share but need to have two critical questions answered 1) Can I drink beer on the touchline while shouting at Alps/UP 2) Will the club provide an ashtray? won't want to get the nice seats all dusty (Oh & I'm off on a stag do to Thailand at the weekend so may be able to find some fake shirts to reduce the cost, they come in a nice pink and darker pink stripes apparently after one wash)

They forgot one Web Hosters OUT!

Agree but he'll probably start the same team unless he seems something in DMG as a reaction to the poor performance or his off pitch troubles Euell & Saga sounded like they worked as a mix, so not a good idea to split them up, Patterson still only experienced enough to come off the bench IMHO So it sounds like straight swap Lallana for DMG to me. The new shape we seem to be playing could be a much better fit for Adam anyway. No way I'd touch the defence, keep the experience of Skacel there unless injury demands changes. Oh and thanks for the good wishes from many about the 3 day hangover at the egg chasing. I'm much better now thankyou. Should be out of rehab in time for the next installment in December

Sky sports tomorrow at some point - it's the only pne up last 2 days but a sneak preview as my avatar for your deep joy or not mate.

Will download from my camera when sober enough to do it tomorrow am!

The Dubai Saints Flag was flying proudly today at the Dubai IRB World Cup Rugby 7's. It was nice and prominent again as always this time just just past the half way line. It will be flying proudly the next couple of days It has now done 2 footie, 1 cricket, 2 proper rugby & 1 7's rugby World Cups. One of them was a final But oh no, it isn't allowed in SMS.... because of image rights, even though it advertises us so well that I got stick today from Manc's Skates & ffs PSG in France..... Anyway rant over, it's 7's in Dubai and beer time Bl**dy well pull another rabbit out the hat and win in Brum lads

Why? How do you set the criteria and cut off date? Terry Paine not on either list? Nor Big Ron despite the support on here for him? It's OK to say "since the formation of the PL" or "since computer games were invented" but to just have an arbitary ageist cut-off is not PC So to speak
