Yeah, it's a city-based franchise pile of bollocks and the T/20 Bash remains. I think I agree about the 50 over competition. It's a shame it's being margnalised because it's a superior form of the game (for me at least) to T/20 but something has to give. Also, while a first World Cup win would be great and it was good when we won the T/20 version what people in this country really care about is test cricket. Hard to see how a good test side can be maintained whilst county cricket is structured the way it is. I was reading Jennings (who has just been called up, so it's pertinent) hasn't played a championship match for 3 weeks and his last 5 games have been limited overs ones. Crazy

Had a look at Tyson Fury's upcoming opponent - Sefer Seferi (no? me neither). He's the number 2 ranked cruiserweight in Albania (out of 2) and number 64 in the world in that division (according to BoxRec). And the one time he's fought anyone of note he lost a unanimous points decision. Sounds like it's going to be a cracking contest

I think it was Gemmill who pointed out that JRM must get his suits cut like that because he'd look even more weird if he got one that actually fit him. He looks like a putter as it is

Apart from when Pearce managed the U21s and the right wing politics of his brother and some racist comments he’d made to Paul Ince about 20 years previously were raked up. I know what you mean though -
It would be great if more did that
