they were lucky there wasn't a free-kick for the County goal with defender being held in the box that allowed the ball to get to Grant in first place.

Better side in both games. Football over hoofball but defence really toughed it out really well. Nolan can whinge all he wants very lucky not to be down to 10 men in the 1st half.

yes!!!!

Right must be me in "old git" mode but why do they need a play list? It's not a night out on the town FFS. Am I missing the point - what is this playlist for - not the dressing room surely.

Devastating news for the family. That evil bastard has destroyed a family with his evil behaviour. Heart just goes out to the mother and the remaining kids.

But Everton fans accepted (even celebrated ) years of Moyes's football which apparently now is unpalatable to West Ham fans. Everton have a history of playing with a big no9 and getting the ball into him. koeman had Everton playing the football that kept the fans happy in his 1st season then the...

Nothing to do with nationality etc. It's just a fashionable trend to bring in foreign coaches - many with pretty ordinary CVs - and expect some miraculous transformation of fortune. West Ham & Everton are two specific cases because their fans have particular associations with the type of...

Basically West ham and Everton owners appoint "sexy" foreign coaches to keep fans happy. These coaches fail then it's the old reliable managers that step in to save the day. Job done and on yer bike and same owners begin search for new "sexy" foreign coach to start the process again. Odds on...

Said when he got the job he'd be gone in the summer. Everton fans were never going to take to his football (once he'd rescued them!!). There's some good players there and they have spent money compared to everyone lse outside top 6

Pundits lauding Ed Smith's influence for Buttler selection. Likes attacking, exciting cricketers etc. It's all fine if you have a solid base/score to build on but top of the order just aren't producing that.

Little surprised ball isn't in there. Has been taking wickets. Bess taken 1 wicket this season?

Alastair Cook, Mark Stoneman, Dawid Malan, Joe Root (capt), Jonny Bairstow (wk), Ben Stokes, Jos Buttler, Chris Woakes, Mark Wood, Stuart Broad, James Anderson, Dominic Bess.. Buttler in as a specialist batsman - not sure about that in Test cricket. This positive approach etc. just hasn't...

what is the situation? Moen Ali, Woakes, Stokes, Buttler,Plunkett still in IPL? Vince's runs came on a flat wicket at Taunton (Somerset's no.10 got 90 odd).

Just don't see Sibley as an opener. He's a middle order hitter. Seems crazy going into a season without specialist openers even if Rhodes is going well for now.

someone's just got to get their head down and bat (it's not a one day game!!). all their top 7 made a start

9 down. hopefully keep target well under 200.

nope don't watch myself either. Read an article last week he hadn't had a game for ages (also that he's getting around 800k for being there!!)

Also about time Woakes came home. Sitting on his backside doing nothing leading into a Test series isn't helping anyone (except Pakistan). Hasn't played for nearly a month - probably rules him out of Pakistan tests.

Rankin was a frustrating player (injuries aside) always so close to really exploding into a really top class fast bowler.
