He was very special. Not as quick as Holding, nor as tall or aggressive as Garner, but still easily the BEST bowler amongst them (not that the others weren't great too). Incredibly rare for a bowler to have so much pace AND skill. Magical cricketer.

From a deckchair on the other side of the boundary , definititley

You're not f***ing wrong there. Total respect to the batsmen of the world who had to face the windies attack during the 70s and 80s.

Magoffin 12-9-8-1!

The Goff must be closing in on 50 wickets. I had never heard of him before this season!

151/4 Magoffin with three quick wickets. Nice!
From 147/0 to 151/4.
Are you Sussex in disguise...?

Marvelous ending to a great days cricket, the Goff was unplayable, reckon he will pepper the tailenders.
Last day of the season, football all the way soon.

Went again today, good week to have off!
Sussex bumbling along nicely then the obligatory collapse. Somsert going nicely, then they thought they would collapse. Oh and that 6 nearly landed in my pint.
No evidence for this next statement, but I do wonder if Yardy will continue.
Oh and Brown needs a winter split between time with Bruce French and playing Grade Cricket.

Cracking day spent in good company , things looked ominous as Treecoffik as the tannoy announcer liked to call him , and suppiah piled on the runs , 1 wicket just 1 wicket and they will fold like a pack of cards was the general consensus, and only the end of day 3 play stopped that , The Goff was fired up and seemed to take a particular disliking to nightwatchman Kirby who required a new helmet after a viscous bouncer .
Goodwin seemed very comfortable at the crease and thoughts of a farewell ton looked very much on , sadly this did not happen and he was bitterly disappointed but as he trudged off the pitch slapping his pads with his bat it sunk in that this would be the last time i would see the great man carrying his bat for sussex .
Id like to thank Wellsy HG ,the mound mob, and the page 3 girl whos name ive forgot (easy come easy go ) , for a memorable day .
