The Hornet's Nest

Right time for a spot of cricket

 

Leo why even bring this up?? The whole matter had been dealt with on the riot thread and everyone had apologised for their part in things. Whilst there were a few problems with comments made, including the off-topic one i made (which was a joke at Norway's expense). The posts were removed simply because the language got a bit too hot. We never Mod a disagreement!

This is the first time anyone has questioned how i moderate the site and it seems to be you who has the most questions, either as Art or Leo. We simply thought the topic could remain in the nest. The thread was a good one, but it did cause friction over petty things. I simply dont think this would have happened in the nest.

 

You and me both Norway, should be all over by Tea - can see Broad taking 5 for - He seems well up for it

 

not sure Anderson will give him a chance

 

I don't want to get involved but I was pleased the discussion was taken out of the nest and put in a thread which I have nearly completely ignored.

 

Well this is me signing off for the weekend. I shall be back tomorrow and will catch up on the news from the match and the chat on here.

Bye all. COYH

 

Morning all - all prepared and ready to fly down to The Vic. Been to the gym and had a nice fry-up, now gagging for a few pints and a catch up with the chaps...

Anyone going to the Curry & Quiz night on the 18th?

 

Bye Dan - have a good weekend and hope now we have all forgotten and moved on - best wishes Leo

 

India 87 for 5 !!

 

wow 96-6, I think we've won this

 

Afternoon all, why is it that on match day there always seem so many things requiring your attention? No matter how carefully you plan something crops up that has you rushing to make sure that you will be close up with the computer at kick off. Just a short break for a bite to eat and catch up with the latest news. Has there been any?

Public holiday Monday and a great deal going on in preparation for the influx of visitors to our small commune. Under 200 live in the village and hamlets most of the year, but on Monday we will have nearly 10,000 come to the big day of the year.

 

I left the cricket at about 11:30 with India 3 down. I look up the lunchtime score and find :

The session? 26 overs, 81 runs, five wickets.

WHERE IS THE INDIAN'S BACKBONE? When all seems lost, real men keep going.

 

I did see a comment that made me smile: "Now that our lead is below 400 should we be setting a more defensive field?"

 

Morning all! (okay, it's 1:15 but i had a lie in )

Just catching up on a bit of cricket too before heading to Vicarage Road...red lippy at the ready! I can't wait to get there today!

 

England soon to be World Number One at cricket - who would have thought eh?

 

a few years ago...not me! lol..now, with this team, anything seems possible! Though there are those critics who say that we are not the best team, it's just that everyone else is rubbish, but that seems harsh to me!

 

Best of a bad bunch - well you can't odds that I won £2.60 on the lottery yesterday so only need Watford to win for it to be a good day COYH

 

i think they are better than that, it is an all round performance with every player giving a share. We also have people in the wings waiting to replace any injured player, that's what has made us number 1.

Oh and by the way Wales lead 6-3

 

Well that's the cricket won, just need England to beat the Welsh and the Hornets to beat the Rams for a great Saturday triple

 

looks totally derailed Charlie
