Happy to see Rashid getting a call up, with Moeen and Root as part timers lots of spin options to call upon, granted none proven to be world class but this is the perfect stage for someone like him to step up and make a name for himself.

Bowling will be the key Can Anderson and Broad still do a job? Can Wood step up and make it swing? Will Rashid get a chance, if not do we have enough anywhere else to pick up wickets on a 5 day old pitch? Will Mitchell Johnson be as effective as he is down under? He struggled in the IPL and...

Try to avoid chain boozers but the O'Neils on Hanover St has always been lively and freindly on a Friday night, the German Bierkeller if you fancy a slightly stronger beer mixed with live geman band for entertainment & Matou, rooftop restaurant and bar down on the riverfront, lovely out in the...

People make a bit of a mockery about the capital of culture but I think this did an awful lot for liverpool, having visited before during and after I could see genuine improvements happening over the period, a place that really seems to comes together in the face of adversity.

"when i go to the gun range" Thats like asking someone who's told you they play football why they own a pair of football boots or someone who goes bowling why they own a bowling ball

...and Sam Burgess the former world rugby league player

How to admit you are wrong in two words. Close the thread.

Whats a half and half scarf? And no, Im usually in the casino at the Ricoh or travelling to an away game between the hours of 12-3. Still no alternative though? Ive not for one moment suggested that Sky havent played there part in the state of football but what I am saying is there is no better...

Why are you so angry at the world? Come up with an alternative for sky running British football yet?

Oh dear, I think you might need to calm down, why the expletives? I ask once again, alternative?

Excellent, what an insightful response, Whats the realistic alternative?

Think you need to go and have a cold shower mate, calm down. You get what you pay for with Sky Sports, I love it and couldnt live without it, and I get way more than my moneys worth for it. The ammount of sport you get on there is incredible and the coverage is second to none. What would...

Only use this trophy as a way of ticking off more grounds on my list so a League 2 side in R1 easily accessible on a Tuesday night Mansfield or Northampton then a PL team in R2 Everton or Stoke maybe

If you go to Old Trafford, Hillsborough, Stadium of Light from the city centre you are most likely to get the tram, the station at the Ricoh looks just like a tram stop so as long as they match the ammount of trains with demand the "station" is perfectly functionable! Why would you spend a lot...

Batting long though with Ali at 8, must still fancy 320+ Will be interresting to see how Gupthill Williamnson et al go in these conditions

I was at the game but its not one that sticks in the memory to be honest, the only reason I remember it was because I had a West Ham freind come up for the match and he sat with us in the city end, 4 of us had child tickets at a fiver (not proud of this) even though we were 22-23, and we got...

Dion and Wise for the pure sense of expectation/excitement when I saw their names on the teamsheet Noel Whelan also, If I had to put my life on one player scoring in a 1 on 1 with an onrushing keeper it would be him, wasnt graced with any particular great skill but always seemed to be the...

KP pulls out of return to IPL citing injury, more likely that he couldnt be bothered to travel all the way thereknowing he probably wont get a game, when he can be in England doing interviews and kicking his pr machine into gear.

Remember him playing against us for Notts County at their place a couple of years ago, we took a huge number of fans spread the length of their left wing where he was in the process of destroying our defnce seemingly at ease. He got stick for the whole of the 2nd half if I rememebr correctly...

If he hadnt of hit a triple ton against a very poor county side would we even be having this conversation? Giving up his IPL contract really wasnt such a difficult decision, he was one of the last players drafted and the money he has given up was peanuts to what he has earned over the past few...
