    Prior ****ing annoys me too. He's a horrible batsman. A slogger who rarely hits it out of the screws. He may have scored 32 today but his innings was scratchy, ugly and didn't do us much good.

    Yet again, while all other teams are making hay in the powerplays, boring boring England are "having a look at it" and plodding along at 4 an over - losing wickets as we go. ****ing garbage. Our mentality is old-fashioned, way over-cautious and out-dated.
    Great stage in the Vuelta today.

    There was also good coverage of the British Road Championship, final stage of the Tour of Poland and the women's GP de Plouay.

    I'd give up watching cricket, Shaggs, you obviously don't like it.

    Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.

      Spot on, we've learned nothing since the latest World Cup debacle. Exactly the same mentality in that tournament, exactly the same outcome-outclassed by the decent teams.
      I thought with a change in captaincy and a change i coach we might see a change in approach but sadly it hasn't happened. We pick the wrong players, we pick the wrong batting line-up, we have no tactical nouse whatsoever and we look lacklustre with the bat. Our bowlers spray it about on both sides of the wicket short of a length too which is why they get murdered every ****ing game.

      Basically, ****

          I don't like cricket, I love it.

          Hate watching England, like, but the Pakistan-India game the other night was top-class sporting entertainment.

                Talking of top-class sporting entertainment, my daughter made us watch 'Top Dog' last night. The commentary was brilliant and strangely reminiscent of someone...

                Over footage of owner wearing boxing gloves trying to persuade the dog to "punch" the gloves with its front paws

                [Partridge]"I've heard of a Boxer Dog but I've never heard of a 'boxing dog'. Another first for 'Top Dog'."[/Partridge]
