Braveheart Posted December 23, 2013 Report Share Posted December 23, 2013 Such an odd turn of events. England's 2nd highest wicket taking spinner ever and he pulls the pin mid series because they cant win the tour? Would have been remembered as a champion tweaker if he had have just kept his mouth shut and rolled the arm over for two more tests.Bizarre to say the least. That said, I was always convinced the bloke was a fucktard so I suppose my shock is a little undue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His comments about the cockiness of his teammates is just as bizarre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't fucking care. It'd be hooligans marring a game in football I agree that this happens completely. However the cops weren't comparing sports, they simply said that they were 'pleasantly surprised' at the low number of evictions for the day. And fair enough, Boxing Day has had much worse.

AyeCee Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 Roff, never said they were. Quite clearly two different mindsets and motives. I'd argue that they still affect the average punter to similar levels though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hahaha, traveling has clearly fried me. I do think that there is a degree of football hate from media and police reports, however yes, a tin foil hat seems to be mandatory uniform for some circles.

kingofhearts Posted July 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2015 (edited) There should be at least one draw TBH. Yeah i don't think the series is lost yet (series will be closer with no harris now) but fuck me our batters need to do something if we're going to pull out at least one game. If watson is dropped write off the second test. He's hopeless. Edited July 14, 2015 by kingofhearts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
