    I played @ school sgt (was captain) then lost interest ( football was my main sport) got rekindled to the game aged about 28 with a local club.

    aged about 35, got me first ever ton, then decided me knees were giving up, should have got one the year before 83 no , then the rain came.

    oh well enjoyed every minute.

    I quit playing a few years ago because I just didn't enjoy playing anymore. I had one good year at Stafford when I took 40 odd wickets in a season for the Under 17's, 3rd and 4th teams respectively. My highlights for the season getting 9-57 (getting my name in the Newsletter in the process!!) and 5-15 on a dream of a pitch for a spinner (which is what I was, mind you I spun the ball about as much as Ashley Giles!!)

    Yes good win Jub. One thing I'd like to add is that the team we put out in our last game consisted of 10 Yorkshire borns and 1 South African. I'm quite proud of that. Our 2nd game of the season starts tomorrow. Much tougher game against Durham. They have a very good team plus one of the brightest prospects in the country currently, Ben Stokes, so we'll need to keep him quiet, although they have many players who will make it tough for us. It's a game between 2 of the Championship favourites. We'll need to be at our best to win the game.

    Regretting I didn't renew my season ticket now. At the time I didn't think I could afford it, but thinking about it I probably could have:emoticon-0120-doh:

    This time 5 days ago I was feeling as elated as I have ever been. Right now though I feel as awful as i've ever felt because of something to do with sport. The cricket team I support, Yorkshire, started the day on the verge of a thumping victory, we've just ended the day on the end of a thumping defeat. What we have just suffered is the cricket equivalent of being 3 nil up with 15 mins to play and losing 6-3. Utter humiliation. I feel just so dejected right now. I might need a few drinks and plenty of listening to The Smiths and Morrissey tonight.

    Ah, we all have different ways of dealing with sporting loss, drowning sorrows is usually what you men go for ;)

    A former football scout I follow on Twitter who sometimes gives out snippets of transfer dealings, has just tweeted this:

    Stoke City interested in signing Ivan Perisic & have been watching him alot lately. #Stoke #football.

    I don't know a lot about him, except from a quick Wikipedia search that he's an attacking midfielder/forward.

    Heard nothing since that story came out. Pulis was definitely in Turkey watching him, but heard nothing since then.

    There's a few rather depressing R.E.M. And Radiohead songs. . . But Nirvana? Wrist slitting? :huh:

    I guess Jub might be referring to these 2 songs maybe?

    I know there are a couple of more sad Nirvana songs, this being the main one that I can think of:





    But that's not what they're really known for, this is more like it:


    I don't think there's much anyone could tell me about Nirvana that I don't already know :wink:

    Haha, well I suppose you could say he was a good looking man, that shotgun round kinda changed that. . .
    I've posted "Something In The Way", the most depressing one, then my 2 favourites "Drain You" and "Very Ape". Not too much for Teen Spirit, used to be one of my favourites, until I got the Kerrang and Scuzz channels, cause they played it over and over until it did my head in!
