    [Cricket] The Ashes - England v Australia - 5th Test, Oval, July 27-31, 2023

    I’ve got tickets for all 5 days again, I think I’ve given it a good go this summer having only missed 3 days of the entire series (but despite that one poster still gave me stick earlier on here for missing day 5 at Edgbaston ‘you’ve literally left the cup final before it’s finished’ or words to...

    My pre-series forecast was 2-2 so I will stick with that, weather permitting of course!

    Nice to think that he fulfilled both his personal and professional ambitions.

    I read somewhere that fee was the equivalent of £253m in today’s market, not sure how they worked that out but puts it into context a bit with the Mbappe fee.

    Actually the 1970s team I do and should have remembered. I was overseas a lot in the 90s, Warwickshire’s domination stands out for me from that period more than anything else.

    Haha, I obviously have a selective memory, it comes in very useful at times!

    Leicestershire County Cricket Club are the very definition of mediocre and have been for the 50 years I have been following cricket!

    [Football] Trevor Francis RIP

    Also surprised by this as he had previously had heart problems and these things once you get a second chance tend to be so closely monitored, I understood it was the reason he moved to Spain for a healthier lifestyle but I don’t know all the facts of course.

    [Football] Trevor Francis RIP

    I have several Blues family connections too. Actually in that 6-2 game against Leicester he only scored once but it won goal of the season, which he had won the previous season against QPR too. RIP Trev.

    Was twice the record at that time, iirc. RIP Trev, met him a couple of times after he’d retired.

    We did think about going to the National Football Museum or a tour of OldTrafford/the Etihad but decided looking upwards there was a chance of play so came down to the cricket instead. I was amazed how many people were here already, given the weather this morning, let’s hope we are not all...

    I thought we might even have got level and then declared. If we don’t bowl them out, or have time to do that, getting nearly 600 ends up being pointless.
