That looks like Adam Armstrong wearing someone else's filp-flops to me!

However they have one thread on it, we have 279.

Never been to watch a game in the US, used to go and watch the crusaders as a kid, so cant really comment on watching live, however in a sport such as basketball where the probability of scoring from an attack is probably as high as 85%, more emphasis is placed on the defensive side of the game...

Man angry at footballer's wages shocker

Needs to be enforced though, refs are scared of players. Didnt they bring in a rule 5 years ago or so where any discent resulted in the freekick being moved 10 yards closer? Did that last about a year. Not a rugby fan but when I do watch it is the one thing that really stands out is the...

Heard an interview with Bellew and his trainer told him that Brook at 154 is the best thing he has seen in boxing, Id rather he went in 1/2 stone lighter than GGG and play to his strengths rather than try and get as heavy as possible and outpower him. Brook will certainly be a different...

I enjoy going to: Darts- have been to Ally Pally the last 3 years and I will continue to go as long as I live, we had a table about 3 from the front last year and yes, you still have to watch it on the big screen but the atmosphere and suspense during the crunch period are as exciting as...

The next two years are huge for Murray, peak age, playing some of the best stuff of his career, back with Lendl, if he can win 2 of the US, Tour Finals and the Olympics he will be there or there abouts in the fight for world no1 ranking, which he has come out and said is his next aim. Picking...

Murray winning the Davis cup with GB, pretty much the world cup of tennis? Not sure you can put Collingwood in for winning the WT20, Strauss taking England to the world no1 ranking is a greater acheivement and I would put Cook & Anderson ahead of him in cricketing terms for their records.

Alistair Cook has to be in with a shout, Englands top run scorer and 11th highest run scorer of all time looking certaint to make the top 3, Ashes win in Australia winning man of the series, Capiatining England to Ashes wins and a first series win in India for almost 30 years.

I think he came through the youth ranks at an awkward time where the sport was becoming more proffessional and aimed towards healthy living, he was a Gascoinge in a world of every emerging Henry's, personality wise, I am in no way comparing him to either. You very rarely hear of players going...

This is getting boring

10 of those golds at europeans though which Hoy has never taken seriously, but I take your point

Joe Calzaghe?

George Best?

Hamilton just drives a faster car than everyone else, he's racing one person every week. Lennox Lewis is a fair sout although some would say someone who represented Canada at the Olympics shouldnt be classed as Britians greatest sportsman. Pendleton, Trott. Hoy and Wiggins both won more...

I think its more his consistency that has brought the "greatest ever" statements, a lot of people can fluke their way to a grand slam, Cillic in the US a couple of years ago. He now has 3 grand slams, an Olympics title, a Davis Cup title and 34 ATP titles. Im not saying he is the greatest but...

I dont really think you can bring Fred Perry into the conversation, everything about the sport that he played is so far removed from the sport we have today. Tennis was a hobby for most in the 1930's FP's record shows that he played a total of 118 competitive matches in his "career", Murray...

The longevity point is interresting, and varies with sport, which I think means you probably cant really call on it in the discussion. For instance a tennis player wont usually break through till 21/22 and is done by probably 32 in terms of competing in singles grand slams, they are on the...
