Yeah, you still didn't post the lyrics.

Bit bored of this twee nonsense to be honest. It's a bit too late to be all "Have I Got News For You" about this kind of stuff now.

Hope he announces he's firing himself into the fvcking sun.

Vogt's Bierexpress. Let you take in food from the really popular currywurst and kebab stands nearby, as long as you buy a pint.

Patel to Hampshire confirmed: https://www.thecricketer.com/Topics/county-cricket-premium/hampshire_pull_off_double_signing_ahead_of_next_season.html?t=639189406129163701

He's just trying to be Alan Partridge for internet clout now, surely?

Mate's at the fan fest in Mexico City. They've suspended it due to the weather...

Think the fallout from that first T20 game may have swayed him. Can see why Warwickshire would want him. Better keeper than any of their options.

They aren't the lyrics.

Yeah, cask stuff was the only thing in the Swans that was vaguely reasonably priced last time I went in. Will pop in the Cow next time I'm down for a beer.

Any particular reason why it's so popular now? Can't quite put my finger on why as it ticks a lot of boxes for me, but was never a place I spent a lot of time in before I had to move away.

Which ones?

Red Cow in Harborough looked really busy when I drove by earlier. Mad to think it's not that long ago a consortium involving my mate's dad had to step in to save it.

As much as they're now the good guys off the field, it's still always funny watching Surrey take a pasting.

Moving further out of town would have been no good for anyone. Agree location is a problem but you have to make the most of the population in the ground's immediate vicinity. Derbyshire ran a big marketing campaign targeting the estates around their ground recently (bus posters, flyers through doors etc) and their Blast ticket sales were uo thos year. Grace Road almost needs to become a local social club for Aylestone/The Saff, with discount memberships for people living there.

Awful boozer though. Couldn't have looked less "East End gangster" inside if it tried.

Not at all comparable situations, are they? Seeing your country play at a World Cup is the pinnacle of supporting a national team. Of course they're going to be more excited than us.

What versions of Jerusalem are people listening to that aren't rousing ffs. Great tune, great lyrics.

Struggling to think of many. Lancaster brewery with the red rose and Sam Smiths with the white rose. Think Brains have a Welsh dragon?

Get yourself to Bochum, Grobs! Great beer there, plenty of nearby groundhopping, and just up the road from Düsseldorf and Cologne - both with their own distinctive beer and pub cultures.

Yeah, BoE is excellent for helles selection. You're unlikely to miss, whatever you pick. I'm personally a sucker for anything where the Bavarian flag is really prominent on the label.

Not great but Lancs only need one of that top three to come off and most oppositions would struggle. Watch them basically put out a second XI on Finals Day again because their superstars have playing for them bottom of their priority list though.

Get in. Great over from Green, wide aside.

You said it was embarrassing for the club, but the club didn't organise it. They can't be blamed for poor turnout.

"It was old players day". Not true. Pretty simple.
