Chelmsford this evening and that never augers well. Put them in, got a wicket with the first ball but since then it looks like business as usual with the knobs from where they don't speak english properly, going along at 9 an over. Wheater to the fore as per usual.

Both look completely burnt out to be honest. Probably both need to drop down a level now.

Might have improved since that tennis player dumped him though and he no longer needs to be running around after her..

First of the last chances at Hove this evening? Not started at all well, they're 33 without loss after 3 overs. Morris went for 18 in his first over. Still perhaps it's a 200 pitch or something.

Some did say he smoked a lot of fags. Whether that has any factual base who knows. I'd have thought we could have just cancelled his contract if that was the case,, for not keeping up optimum fitness.

Brings to mind the 1980's film, The Tin Men. Selling aloominum sidings in Baltimore, think that's what we'd call a veranda or conservatory. Good film though.

About Coronation Day IIRC, june sometime I think.

So basically 60-70 % of the population of the UK then . That's a conservative estimate by the way.

But United are desperate. They've bought decent centre backs in the past and transformed them into carthorses by some processus or other. Maguire will or would go the same way likely as not.

Well unless you've got a cooler or something for your perishable shopping you shouldn't be hanging about with it getting overheated really. No wonder people get sick after leaving meat and stuff in the boot of the car or the shopping trolley for half an hour whilst drinking coffee. I don't remember that many petrol stations in Chandler's Ford actually, must have had pumps at Hendy's I suppose but other than that I don't recalll many, perhaps behind Selwood's or something, never adventured there.

Well tbh it's probably pretty obvious that Fidel costs more than Wood. However we have other bowlers who'd probably only cost the same even if they don't have white ball contracts, I'm sure Holland would have done a better job. Season is becoming a bit of a shambles after a good start.

Yes he did but I just assume there are reasons for loaning him out there. Are we short of money again?

It's just not understandable, he plays in the seconds most of the season and then gets one day games where he is constantly useless. Was Holland not available or something? Won't even mention farming out Fidel, guess there's some sort of reason for that.

Yes we were short, probably because Northeast, amongst other reasons like the openers getting out too soon, is a bit slow when you need runs quickly. I'd make him open and put Rossouw in further down.

Anyone want to try to explain to me in simple terms why exactly we persist with Chris Wood ? Just got smashed for 16 off 5 balls in the last over to lose the match for us.

Took 4-22 for them today.

Fidel not even finishing the 4 day season later on then ? I'd hoped we'd might get Markram back for the T20 but I guess he has other things to do.

Does the manager at Newcastle have much say in the transfers there? I thought that's partly why Benitez didn't want to stay.

I don't think that Nice can enter into serious negociations with anybody about anything until their sale to Ratcliffe has become official anyway.

Looks like a bit of a struggle to avoid defeat again today. Might even be a T20 type slog for Kent, looking for about 155/160 off 16 or 17 overs.

Well we're about to see if you're right. Behind the rate, need a big, big over.

He lives in or around Paris, that's hard enough as it is, give the bloke a break. Can't be easy in them there ghettos.

Nah, if it's Canal + imagery they have about 6 or 7 camera positions, they're pretty used to VAR imagery as they do the rugby here. Sometimes you see the same action from a lot of different angles.

There was nothing accidental about it, she used her arm to control the ball. Then again you might not have the same images on Sky as those they have on Canal + As for the ref seeing or not seeing, well that's why they have 3 or 4 video refs seeing different things from different angles isn't it. Oh and one of the Swedish girls immediately pointed to her arm, probably what tipped the video refs off.

they have plenty of other players that they're going to sell. What they have to do is sell for more than they buy and reduce their payroll, they're not under any sort of transfer embargo. They've already found a reason to sack Adil Rami, not turning up for training at the end of last season I think.
