Just listening to TMS during the rain extended lunch break. Obviously a Hampshire flavour on their big day. Rod Bransgrove spoke about developing the Rosebowl site and Aggers challenged him about the problems for crowds getting in and out with the limited access and reliance on park and ride etc. Bransgrove admitted it is all about how the thing is managed - which made me ponder how efficiently these issues will be managed at The Amex.

Then Mark Nicholas and Shaun Udal had a chat with Aggers except that it became a Nicholas monologue talking over the other presenters and guests, some very interesting anecdotes (including about Sussex) - but what an arrogant arse he is. The Channel 9 gig downunder has gone to his head. Udal barely got a word in. Aggers has now given up trying to steer their discussion and Nicholas seems to have taken over the whole programme, is now asking the questions of other TMS members! There is something very smarmy about him, but then I didn't like him as captain of Hants. No doubt TMS are grateful for a bit of filling in between real action but god forbid Nicholas ever gets this as a regular gig.

Nicholas is OK as a presenter but I agree as a pundit he's a bit naff.

I thought Jeremy Coney was good the other night Sussex vs Somerset T20.

Mark, you are not really a patient man are you. I mean 22 is hardly a great opening stand and you didn't even give Broad an over to get it right.

You do realise a test last 5 days and not 30 minutes don't you.

Well Mark I have been away from the cricket and NSC for 30 minutes or so and in that time it has gone from 22-1 to 29-3 and it looks like we have signed Kazenga Lua Lua for £1.50 how things change if you give them just a little bit of time.

mark - you're embarrassing yourself posting each over moaning when nothing happens.

Just stick to posting at the end of the session or something, it would be a lot less tedious to read.

Think you've frightened Mark off the thread. I know how tedious those posts can be.
