    [Cricket] The village / amateur 2024 CRICKET thread...

    GB was closer with Staplefield, although needs to travel much further north east. Can't be Southwick, the batsman looks like he's eying up a maximum :D

    [Football] Lee Carsley - The National Anthem.

    A lot of folk are in between. For me the obsession with national identity is bewildering. I feel it is a form of insecurity. We only get three score years and ten and I'm not going to spend it saluting a flag and submitting to inherited expectations of who I should be. I'm just going to live and...

    We have a winner :clap: It went down to the wire

    [Cricket] Cricket- 3rd Test, Oval, September 6th-10th, 2024, Sri Lanka tour of England

    Zimbabwe have been offered a Test next summer in chilly Nottingham in May. The India series is crammed into six weeks as cricket is on holiday in August again.

    [Albion] International call ups

    Daily Telegraph with his tin hat on singing from the nuclear bunker he's been living in since the 1950s. I mean really, who gives a flying flamingo ?

    [Cricket] T20 Blast Finals day tickets

    After being SCOLDED by the umpire for holding up the game against Nottinghamshire in 1982, I never sit behind the bowler's arm. I felt like a naughty schoolboy, which in fairness I was. I actually have the bail from that match which poor Clive Rice and John Barclay were forced to do their best...

    [Cricket] Sussex CCC - 2024 edition

    Just taken a look. Warwicks have only made Finals Day on four occasions. All the teams left are pretty tough. I'd put Somerset as favourites. Although no-one has retained the title.

    He just needs a sidekick. It would be like Waiting for Godot meets Bird and Fortune

    He has everything as a player. Except confidence and this propensity to make basic mistakes. But technically, he is so gifted. Some of his strokes are such a joy to watch for the purist. I can't get into Harry Brook, he's just an eagle eyed slogger to me.

    [Cricket] Sussex CCC - 2024 edition

    Incredible from Gloucestershire against the non county team. Utterly absorbing. George and Danny- you should have stayed with a COUNTY.

    I don't know if that's true. It's not at float that bothered me too much as there is much competition these days. Water and electricity is another matter.

    [Cricket] Sussex CCC - 2024 edition

    Who is this Birmingham you speak of ? Warwickshire, dear chaps, Warwickshire I don't believe for one minute Sussex have made any more money by calling us 'Sharks'. I will never ever use that term or buy merchandise that has anything other than the Sussex crest on. Good on the six counties who...

    [Football] Rooney told his wife won't go to Saudi

    Is there any actual evidence that Rooney has been told that by his wife though ? I wouldn't consider 'there has been talk' as a consideration of there being any truth in that article. Still, gets the clicks.

    [Humour] Joke du jour

    You should have asked one of the Mods to take a look for you. NSC always takes care of its members.

    I think Ollie Pope is the best English batsman I've seen in recent times. He just seems to get himself in such a pickle with in swingers. He has all the qualities. Much like James Vince in a way.

    [Cricket] Cricket- 3rd Test, Oval, September 6th-10th, 2024, Sri Lanka tour of England

    I'm all for climatic yelling where cricket is concerned. I prefer the Bazball-10% version with these reverse scoops only played on merit rather than pre-determined.

    [Misc] Do you believe the Earth is flat?

    If the earth is flat, my only question would be how no-one has ever fallen off the edge.

    Not Staplefield, no. I still haven't forgiven them for denying that last over lbw in 1992.

    [Cricket] Cricket- 3rd Test, Oval, September 6th-10th, 2024, Sri Lanka tour of England

    I don't trust the MET office anymore. Most reports were suggesting dicey weather. The MET sometimes puts fluffy clouds up and tells you there will be prolonged rain at the same time. They seem to be all over the place. I don't know what the best station is, but I do know that as a cricketer it...
