Can England do it? Really think we need to chase less than 300. 282 ahead as we speak and just the one wicket remaining. We don't want this tail to wag.

I do like cricket, but find there can be great chunks of dullness in between the exciting bits.

County? Test? Just seem to see a lot of people looking bored and either asleep, disinterested, chatting, reading a book etc.

Yeah, accept that. That does sound more exciting than just standing by a hole for several hours watching people taking golf shots and not having too much idea where the ball has landed.

Fair point. Yep, some specialise in particular fields (employment law, criminal, domestic divorce etc).

Just a normal SBT day then.

I personally don't have a problem with them. I know a few do, but good luck to them, they seem to have been doing very well. Would I watch them? Maybe of they had a big cup tie or something. Nice to see a Coventry team doing well even if they possibly did set the club up for the wrong reasons...

Ahh, but now aren't we just getting into sports we don't like? I'm talking about sports that are poor from a spectator point of view. Ones where you can't see what's going on, or you don't see the whole thing, or you're too far away, or get in the right position for etc. Seems to me with the...

Yeah, based on yesterday you have to say he didn't impress. Would have had to play like Messi to have been in with a shout by all accounts.

Better on TV, or are you just saying you don't like ice hockey?

Yes, true, but I think we are talking about signings for Coventry City aren't we? We seem to pretty much bring out the worst in everyone. ;)

Why not, when you have a team that perform like clowns at times?

Hey, there were some good players in there. Well, there was Leon Best anyway.

Darts I would imagine is as much about the beer though isn't it? Cross country? I would guess anything where competitors are just coming past you and you are not seeing the whole event unfolding. That surely diminishes your experience.

Maybe. She was in bed last night, but haven't seen her yet this morning. Could well have taken a sneaky flight to Thailand without me noticing to be honest.

Morning everyone. Test match and Open for me. Maybe the park later.

Been watching the Open on the TV. The thought though of being there in person bores me to death and makes me shudder at the very thought of it. Must be one of the worst ever sports to be a spectator at surely. So much going on, some many competitors over 18 holes, can't watch it all. Can't even...

Mark Kermode has given it a decent review, saying it is good fun, not a classic but worth seeing, so that is good enough for me. He's a critic I respect a lot. Don't always see eye to eye with him, but usually I concur with his conclusions. :)

Hmmm .... do you now. Now you have me thinking.

Wasn't someone looking for someone from Liverpool on another thread here? Not sure about the lover bit though.
