Wouldn't it be nice if we could a find a really really fast bowler who wasn't
cross-eyed ?

It's too quiet, sir. I don't like it.
Actually, it's because everyone's busily watching the RSA v England
game. At least, I suppose it is, because I'm not watching it, nor do I
intend to. The score will no doubt be in the paper tomorrow.
Apart from the England/RSA game, nothing else is happening in the
world of cricket. At least, India haven't played an ODI for a
fortnight or more, and they aren't due to play another for at least
three weeks, so there's nothing important for anybody to talk about.
Courtney Walsh has checked into hospital and will be out for the rest
of the century. Sachin Tendulkar has changed his name to van der Merwe
and has been put on standby in case one of the RSA batsmen mugs a
nightclub bouncer.
Fred Trueman, Geoffrey Boycott, and Ray Illingworth have held a press
conference. They've apologised. Whatever it was, they've apologised
for it. They're very sorry indeed, and they won't do it again.
Cheers,
Mike

Maybe, but I've got something better to do this evening, and I've been
at work all day.

Blimey. So they did. Perhaps someone's newgrouped india.sport.cricket
and they've all gone over there to moan about Azhar.

That's the trouble with young people today. No imagination. Now, in my
day, we used to picture things out in the middle. We didn't do any of
this new-fangled nonsense, we just went out there and did it. We
didn't just do it in the nets, you know. And we never got injured
doing it. I mean, Brian Statham, he could picture an entire season of
rep at the Free Trade Hall at one end, while I just thought about
Leeds City Varieties, where they had The Good Old Days. Of course, you
wouldn't remember The Good Old Days. One of my best inventions, them.
But people today, I just don't know, they don't appreciate the Good
Old Days: nowadays they all seem to want Mick Reeves (is that his
name, oh something like that any road). Some of them don't even know
they were born. You don't want all this quick-fire rubbish - you want
lines at length, lines at length, lines at length, that's what gets
them out of the theatres. I just don't know what's going off out there
any more.
Cheers,
Fred
It was quite fun when Croft was on a hat-trick, though. Henry Blofeld
nearly choked on his currants. It was more fun than it probably should have
been. Now I'm off to watch the highlights to see how appalling Nass's run
out of Knight was, and to see for myself the catch that was supposed to be
so brilliant.

(And Ealham on the same pitch too... is it really Christmas already?)

The catch watch pretty good, but the runout was awful. Knight was
backing up a long way in the one-day tradition, Hussain was daft.
So, that's one ODI and one test he's lost us with runouts in the past
few weeks. Git.

Ealham was run out, Willis said "it looks like Ealham is short".
He missed out the "a" and "arse" in that sentence.

Oh ho ho. Arf arf. (Clutches at aching ribs). You must have missed the
great debate on TMS about how short Markie really is. His details said 5'
9'', so Aggers concluded he must be 5' 8'' seeing as all men add an inch or
two on to their height just to impress. Seeing as I'm 5' 11'' anyway, an
inch or two here and there makes no big difference. Well, what I mean is...

How much more short could you get? None more short.

I guess you couldn't be bothered with the extra keystrokes necessary
to type "Essex player" there.

That's just nit-picking.

I apply my earlier statement to myself now. My advise to Mike Gooding
was that he should watch out, as he has started to agree with me more
than is healthy. I am now starting to agree with Mr. Holmans. Normal
service will be resumed shortly.
