And you think putting that added pressure on a player who is already lacking confidence in front of goal is going to work? Surely that is the last thing that Robins should do. He tells him that he HAS to score and Biamou is going to be snatching at everything and be all tensed up. If Robins...

Yeah, and you would need to make the allowance for Smith probably getting at least 50 or 60 again. Can't see them getting out 'played on' this time either.

Broad finally out for 56. Except he is not out. Deep field catch, but the ball pops out and definitely touches the ground. Yet, it is given out after a long, long review process. Bad decision.

50 for Stuart Broad. Another one we dismissed to the cricketing dustbin! ;) 100 partnership too! Cook and Broad.

This is lovely to see. Runs flowing and the lead now 131. England 458-8. Cook on 221 and Broad on 46.

Lead now up to 116 and a 71 run partnership between Cook and Broad. Broad having a a bit of fun out there and smashed a lovely 6 off Nathan Lyons. He's now on 39.

Very healthy lead now of 96. 8 wickets down, but Cook on 206 and Broad on 26. Nice.

Double hundred up for Cook! Now who was it on here who was saying we should be dumping him? :)

Some are worse than others though. I have particularly found Leeds fans to be bad and on a recent TV documentary about football fans causing trouble on trains, British Transport Police especially singled out Leeds fans as one of the most troublesome.

Well whoever does like it isn't admitting it. I have only ever met once person who says they like the show. Are people really that embarrassing to admit it?

Kelly? Stokes? Bayliss? Jones? Wouldn't want any of those to be gone to be honest and I quite like Shipley too.

Now 7 down and a lead of 46. Nice to have the lead but I think it needs to be much closer to 100 to have any impact of the test. Curran and Cook now at the crease.

Yeah, I think it may be time to give Nazon a start again. Guess it may depend on whether he is still here after Jan 1st or not.

I am crossing my fingers that anyone who goes are players we want to go and therefore not first choice first teamers. That for me would include: Thomas Hopefully (Turnbull and Reid finally buggering off for good) Haynes Stevenson Beavon One or both DKE's Hopefully it's too soon for someone to...

I often catch a couple of minutes when I turn over for the news (it often runs late for some reason) and I don't think I have ever laughed once. It's like we've been transported back in time to the dire sitcoms of the 70's.

Never got my head round that. Another reason Not Going Out went downhill. I can only think that Cannon and Ball were heroes of Lee Mack when he was a kid.

There? Where?

Which is why I think it might be worth taking a gamble on Baker.

So it's not that we can't break them down because they are too defensive, it's a case of we can't break them down because we are not committing enough bodies forward? I do also think we thrive on space and when teams pack the defence we struggle to get in behind them to cause damage. The...

We didn't against Cheltenham and Wycombe though did we and that's my point, did we start to hit it long because of the condition of the pitch.
