Cricket 'wicked whispers'

[Tooting Gull]

OK. Which former England player said, I am reliably informed, about which pundit in an 'off-the-record' comment yesterday:

"I can't stand the bloke. He's useless, and I could do his job with my eyes closed."

Answer later. I think some people on here will work this one out.

You could be talking about 90% of the England squad right now!

 

[The Clown of Pevensey Bay]

Any of them?

Here's another one. When I had the job of answering the dressing room phone at the County Ground, Hove, in the mid-1990s, which Former England Captain cast his eyes to the Sky and said this to me about which presenter, upon hearing he was on the phone?

"Can you tell that c**t to f*** off?"

 

[Titanic]

Is it about Charles Colville ?

 

[The Clown of Pevensey Bay]

Is it about Charles Colville ?

 

[Titanic]

As to who said it... well I think there would be a pretty long list of candidates...

how about Nick Knight ?

 

[The Clown of Pevensey Bay]

No....

 

[Titanic]

Tooting... is yours also about Charles Colville ?

Is it Nick Knight or maybe Ian Ward ?

CoPB do you know the answer to Tooting's question ?

 

[The Clown of Pevensey Bay]

Not Ian Ward, and no I don't know the answer to Tooting's Q.

Is it Nasser Hussain, though? Or Botham?

 

[Titanic]

CoPB... Alec Stewart ?

 

[The Clown of Pevensey Bay]

Nah -- Alec's far too nice to say something like that, even about someone he hates!

 

[Titanic]

Alan Lamb ? Graham Gooch ??

 

[The Clown of Pevensey Bay]

A bit later than Gooch. But not much.

 

[Titanic]

there's only Michael Atherton left, and surely he wouldn't be so vulgar ??

 

[Man of Harveys]

Graeme Thorpe?

 

[The Clown of Pevensey Bay]

there's only Michael Atherton left, and surely he wouldn't be so vulgar ??

Er, yes he would!

 

[Buzzer]

there's only Michael Atherton left, and surely he wouldn't be so vulgar ??

Agree - Athers does just hard Paddington stares doesn't he?

 

[Titanic]

back to Tooting's Q...

was it about Charles Colville too ?

and was it Nick Knight ? or Ian Ward ??

 

[Simster]

Nassar Hussain or Bob Willis on Charles Colville.
