    Yes, let's leave room for phones (yawn), GOT (double yawn) and politics (yawn).

    I'm going to continue talking about cricket on here. If we can talk about Game of Thrones, politics etc on here then we can talk about cricket.

    Why do you not want your own thread?! That way cricket talk won't be diluted by all of Fran's yawn subjects.

    Don't see the point. Cricket won't dominate this thread as you seem to think, just the occasional comments when Hampshire play.

    I think it's bizarre that you think there should a cricket thread created on a football forum when there is an off topic thread.

    Which were all far more successful than any scattered cricket talk in Beefy's ever was.

    "Hey, do you want a thread which has been successful in the past where you can talk exclusively to people who care and have exclusively that subject spoken about?"
    "No thanks, I'm happier to talk where most people won't check and most people who do check don't care. Who wants a situation where everyone wins when instead we can have one where nobody really wins?"

    Yes...he must surely be in the minds of the England selectors, especially as Goochie has been hanging around so much.....

    You should just call the thread "Wicket!", and then get it stickied. The it will be Sticky! Wicket!

    Vince really should be in the England ODI side. He's certainly England's future number 4 test batsman.

    I might start a separate Game of Cricket thread where we talk about Tyrion Lannister and Michael Carberry depending on which way the wind is blowing.
