    Didn’t have Parmesan, used the sweepings off the chiropodist’s floor instead
  3. It’s the hope that kills you. Well what actually killed England was not getting another 50+ runs in the second innings. And not getting a wicket or two before the close yesterday. Tbh, given India’s ridiculous test form at home, I’d have been happy with England being competitive before the series started. But they’ve had opportunities to at least be level going into the last test
  4. Haven’t actually seen that but I know the case you’re talking about. I would say it was prejudice and ineptitude in equal measure. Which is par for the course for the Met
  5. I’m tempted to throw a party tbh
  6. I didn’t think it could but I can actually see the polling getting worse the longer they hold out. 100,000s of more people every month getting hit by the interest rate increases and they’re playing the race card. And playing it badly. Blobfish, like you point out, is just seeing how far she can push it now. It would be fucking hilarious if she lost her seat. Also what a slimy fucking cunt Dowden is.
  7. Yeah. That’s looking a bit optimistic already
  8. Think they’ve got a chance but fancy India to win by 4 wickets.
  9. Aye. Batshit crazy but also thick and dull as fuck. 10 a penny
  10. I’ve just checked and although it looks like they lost, they actually had 55% of possession.
  11. Tbf Curle persistently fouled him for the entire match but shit his pants every time Sir Les went near him
  12. I think they’ll drop Foakes again and play Brook in the middle order and give Bairstow the gloves. They absolutely shouldn’t imo though. Might change things if Stokes is able to bowl enough as that gives more balance / less need for an extra batsman. In the eyes of McCullum and Stokes I mean. Foakes is such a good keeper and his batting average more than stands up anyway I think
  13. If she managed to get here she’d probably be granted asylum
  14. The mad thing is, the culture war has failed and they’re losing the election because they have made almost everyone significantly worse off. And still they persist with it. It’s pure desperation and they just seem to be digging their own graves by going for it all the more. The polling is absolutely shockingly bad from a Tory pov
  15. Imagine a white child that was groomed and radicalised and the difference in how it would’ve played out
  16. Whoah, hang on! He’s from the midlands
  17. 91 scores of 50 or more in tests for England now. More than anyone else, eclipsing Cook. Steve Harmison (who’s actually quite perceptive on co-comms) on the radio was saying the pitch meant Root couldn’t play the funky stuff. So he had to knuckle down and tap it about and play proper shots, if you like. Some of the ways he gets out are mental as he’s a batsman who can score quickly without having to change his normal game. Also been a fair bit of speculation that Stokes will bowl. A hell of a long way to go but that was a pretty good first day given the conditions
  18. You’re probably right. It was more a pop at her than any defence of him though, obviously
  19. I say to my lass a while back that all of the programmes Alan Partridge suggests in that scene where he’s desperate to get a second series would all probably get made now
  20. I want to see the trailer at the very least
  21. Honestly don’t even think Johnson would stoop that low
