PP Arnold - The Turning Tide

I think Lancs had already qualified for the quarters even before tonight’s debacle

Japan - Life In Tokyo

Etta James - I'd Rather Go Blind

The Moody Blues - Go Now!

He'll probably get another double century then Dreams 😉

The Beatles - Here, There and Everywhere

If Crawley is our strongest opener I shudder to think what the rest of them must be like. What has he actually done in all the tests he has played (apart from one massive score that would appear to be the outlier amongst a litany of failures)?

Was playing the Housemartins this morning, great band. Their second album was a cracker as well.

Genesis - Turn It On Again

Of course he does, as do I. The lad very clearly isn't good enough to open the batting in test match cricket. Why would you not want to pick your strongest player in each position? What does Rob Key say about Crawley?

Just get two for the Dundee end Mike, that's probably what I'll end up doing.

Crawley just isn't a test match opening batsman. For all the attacking intent of the new coach and captain, the openers' job is still to protect their wicket and see off the first new ball. Crawley is poor at both of these roles.

Jeff Lynne - Alone In the Universe

Cilla Black - Step Inside Love

Yeah same Mark, I'm the equivalent of Southport as far as the tide goes, and have been since I was 19 😮😂

It would have been had social media been around back then, I suspect 😉

I take your general point Tyrone but I do think there’s a slight ‘rose tinted spectacles’ thing going on with your recollections of Rovers fans supporting the board. I remember going on all sorts of ‘sack the Board’ protests during that era (might not have been under Jim Smith tbf) and there was a general feeling/accusation that the board didn’t want/couldn’t afford promotion (was there not?)

The Specials - Concrete Jungle

The Jam - Strange Town

I can’t take to that lad at all. He never looks confident.

Boycott has a history of talking out of his arse. If you can lose a test in a session it stands to reason that you can bloody win one in a session, given there are only ever two teams playing in a test.

You’d be surprised!

Struggling to properly follow that one tbh but... Marvin Gaye - Stubborn Kind Of Fella 😉

That rain almost certainly gained Lancs a point, not that that would appease your poor parents!
