  1. Your antisemitism is clouding your judgement I reckon.
  2. Catch 22 is awesome, you fucking philistine
  3. If a big fuck off UFO landed in Hamburg hed' declare it a fake.
  4. What about Tony Hancock?
  5. I loved The Handmaid's Tale but, for whatever reason, haven't read any more Margaret Atwood. Just finished Alan Paton's Cry the Beloved Country. Which almost sounds like a line from Curb... Proper book, as Graeme Souness would say.
  6. The trailers look fucking terrible like, don't they?
  7. Think there's more chance of Compton getting back in. Not that I disagree about the treatment of Carberry.
  8. It's been a problem since Strauss retired so it's obvious no one has fully staked a claim. As for a spinner, we need a consistent one before we start talking about match winners. As for keepers, I think Bairstow is good enough with the gloves and it's just a question of whether he can get the runs. Deserves his chance though as has been discussed. Butler's looked out of sorts for a while now.
  9. http://blog.oxforddictionaries.com/2012/01/can-i-start-a-sentence-with-a-conjunction/
  10. That's a myth. It's perfectly fine to begin a sentence with 'And' (or 'But').
  11. Aye, lets conjure some players out of thin air
  12. Used to play 5-a-side with Disco Des' cousin. I think we signed the wrong player.
  13. Some good lessons learnt this series I think but it probably raised more issues that it resolved. Also, I see Tom Graveney has died. Was born at Riding Mill. Supposed to be a very elegant batsman although I only knew him as a commentator. Once saw him and a few other stars from years gone by at the lunch break during the Callers Pegasus International Cricket Festival in about 1990. Think Ray Illingworth, Fred Trueman, Denis Compton and Tony Lock were amongst the others there. RIP.
