  1. Yes. You are either living off past glories or hoping for an overhaul or regime change that has never looked like happening.
  2. I really wish they would show that Guinness advert more often...

    Agreed but it is far easier to warm up in cold weather. This stale air brings no respite, no breeze to cool things and the nights are so uncomfortable. We aren't generally in a position to write off sleepless nights with our working patterns, too.
  4. "John Ruskin" Great research as always, guys.
  5. This Liverpool signing, on a basic level, is why the top clubs, regardless of ownership, blend into one really. £116 million here, £105 million there. All miles away from where most of the top flight and the pyramid reside.
  6. Won't communicate on important matters but will tweet irrelevant pictures from a year ago. Says it all.
  7. India collapsing here and will no doubt by saved by rain from a thumping by Bazball Vibes CC.
  8. Apparently Middlesex have lost the most T20 matches of any side in the world.
  9. Got here 12 months early.
  10. It will be six to eight overs which is 30-40 minutes. Being forced to bowl all overs would hopefully kick teams up the arse.
  11. Over rate appalling again. In glorious weather, fans paying a fortune will miss out on several overs.
  12. Broad and Anderson covered a lot of issues with the next generation, especially with the injuries to the real pace bowlers. Hope Stokes doesn't have to overbowl himself.
  13. Got to say I think that Sky have the T20 commentary team set up correct. Knight and Cork have improved over the years, Lydia Greenway is a good female choice and Daggers, Butch and Simon Doull are always excellent. Not a group you would naturally throw together but it seems to work.
  14. Needed this after the disappointments with the football and polo.

    And then refuse to put the air conditioning on as it would make us freeze so instead use their desk fans before complaining that "they ain't doing much, are they?" Brilliant stuff.
  16. Took over in the most tragic of circumstances so you can forgive early difficulties. To be honest, most of the work had been done before that night to put together a fine squad and progress towards the top four. The ludicrous backing of Rodgers and the continued misguided faith in Rudkin has battered us in the past four years or so.
  17. Yes, time for the King Power loyalists to get behind their beloved company and owner and fund the recovery of the business. They will go into the trenches for them, so it is claimed.
  18. Loads of empty seats at this one as well.
  19. This crowd has guaranteed an expansion and Manchester United and Liverpool in for the next version.
  20. Because excluding their federation surely goes against the spirit of a world event?
  21. We did such a poor job of moving which only adds to the frustration. We had to move or expand, unfortunately the latter option wasn't available so building a new ground was the only way forward. Sadly we went for the cheapest, blandest option of the identikit bowl. Most of the comments here reference the different seats, the concourse, the steps, the stands towering over and coming into view. What now? The stands and concourses look the same. Nothing stands out. A genuine wasted opportunity.
  22. We'd left the year before yet all they had done was take out the seats (and not all by the looks of it). Was there a hold up with the demolition?
  23. These boundaries are ludicrous. I know you want high scoring games but some of these sixes are 20 yards from the stand.
