    Hmm - well Morgan is in even worse ODI form than Cook ! I would have liked Root to be given a go as skipper of the ODI side.

    Less than half of Rooney's weekly salary. Absolutely mental.

    Of course the FA don't give a toss.

    Depends if Hereford are really viable. No point in putting good money after bad. Perhaps it will turn out better to start again.

    Root is a good shout. However Cook has been batting at the top of the order and Morgan has been coming in when the team is behind, different pressures.. Top 3 or 4 should be your best batsmen in terms of 50 over cricket.

    If Hereford aren't viable, they are just a symptom of football as a whole not being viable. The FA as custodians of the game should be doing something other than encouraging a race to bankruptcy as salaries and transfer fees spiral upwards and clubs are having to mortgage their future just to be competitive. The FA frankly are not fit for purpose.

    Couldnt agree more. However Morgan hasnt made any game changing, or game winning, innings for quite some time now after a period when he was really exciting and effective. Im thinking that both Cook and Morgan should be dropped from the ODI team for a bit - i would like to see Vince and Taylor given an extended run in the team to see how they do.

    I presume Cook may still play, although he is more of a Test player, if they think he will regain his form without the pressure of captaincy.

    Understandably so. It does have deeper repercussions when you pull a newly produced film because of political violence threats. We're talking about about freedom of choice. In response to our not being able to watch a comedy about Kim Jong-Un, I'll put up his Dad:

    and Paddy Power [did I hear the beep of censorship..?]..!

    And Southampton are mentioned, so it's even appropriate.

    Apparently a number of independent cinemas in the USA that were going to show The Interview wanted to show Team America in its place but that's now been pulled as well!

    This is a booze calculator which suggests what nationality you drink like. I am Italian as I drink 53% less than the average UK woman and 80% less than the average UK man. Ciao, baby. :)

    I very foolishly made the big mistake of waiting until the last Saturday before Christmas to do my Christmas Shopping. <doh>
