    There is going to be a big outcry in the Press and by England fans if we get walloped in the 2nd Test.

    I believe in showing loyalty to your players. But it is getting ridiculous with some players like Docherty and Campbell.

    I was in it many years ago. This production with Stephen Fry as Lady Bracknell is superb. Camper than a row of tents. Good to see you posting more @Squareball

    Bell and Kelman had hamstring injuries which takes a while. I pulled my hamstring in a match once. It took forever to heal. I think Edwards has already had an operation but it is obviously not healed as expected. So hence he is going to a specialist. Godden has also had complications. Injuries...

    I was at the game when Hales and Flanagan got sent off. I think it was in the Cup versus Maidstone.

    I am truly puzzled why we signed him. Doesn’t fit into the Jones Profile.

    Is a fully fit and firing Godden better than any other Charlton striker on our books, yes he is. But it will take a long time before he is fully fit and firing. But I would have Godden over anyone else we have.

    If I was Zac Crawley or one of the other batsmen I would be practicing in the nets.

    Both Stokes and Mc Callum are really irritating me now. They will not bend or agree that they got it wrong. Their answer to our problem is to go harder in the same vein. Key is big mates with Zac Crawley’s Dad. It explains why he keeps on getting picked. Stokes at the start of the Test calling...

    Some arrogance is good for individual Sportsmen. But Stokes and McCallum are totally intransigent. They will not admit they are wrong. Not playing a couple of competitive games before the Test was ridiculous. Playing shots that get you out in Australian conditions is just pig headed.

    This is a quote from Glenn Mc Grath and he has got it just right. There are times when England can be a high quality team. They have good players. Good players have skill, but great players have the mental toughness and attitude to be adaptable enough for the conditions.

    My Wige’s It was certainly entertaining. Who couldn’t be entertained by Travis Head’s brilliant century. T20 and the hundred started because domestic Cricket in the County championship was dying. Have you seen the attendances for County Championship games? Whether you like it or not we live in...
