Its at Southport I think MCMC1975. C'mon Lanky!!!!

Thanks mate. Also, I didn't realise they had introduced T20 in the Lancs League!? Always followed the Northern League more being a Darwen lad, but I worked with a couple of Lancs League players a few years back (Ian Howarth of East Lancs and Ian Bell of Haslingden) so was kept up to speed on their games.

Looks like the Southport crowd have had a fabulous championship match to watch. Could go either way and Durham have to chase down 250ish on the last day. I noticed Lancs used their sub to bat at eleven. Does this mean Jimmy won't be bowling tomorrow?

Ian Dury and the Blockheads - What a Waste

10CC - Life is a Minestrone

Spot on. The first touch and first movement of a top level pro is light years away from what even a decent semi pro can cope with. Many years ago I played against a 50 odd year old massively overweight Peter Osgood. I would have been in my late 20s at the time and a fairly decent amateur player. He made us all look stupid the whole time he was on the park. God only knows how good he was when at his peak!!

Shocking injury for Demba Ba. Possible career ender. http://www.espnfc.com/chinese-super-league/story/2913756/former-chelsea-striker-demba-ba-suffers-horrific-injury-in-shanghai-derby

Terrible news about Chris Boardman's mum being killed while out cycling in Deeside. RIP.

Awesome performance. In many ways Stenson came as close to a 62 today as Phil did in Round 1 which, under the circumstances, is just incredible. Amazing battle between the pair of them!

And let's not forget that Ken Furphy and at least two of his Rovers side were prominent in USA football in that era - Tony Field and David Bradford. I may be wrong but I seem to recall that Field played alongside Pele?

Spot on!!

The Stranglers - Go Buddy Go

Paul Weller - Come On, Let's Go

I went to the Open at Troon today, my first ever visit to a professional golf tournament after being a TV fan since childhood. I watched some of the early groups go through the Postage Stamp (par 3 8th hole) but I had my sights set on trying to follow, as best I could, the Els/Mickelson/Westwood group round their 18 holes. Talk about beginner's luck!!! Never thought I'd get sunburnt in Scotland but there you go!!!

Electric Light Orchestra - The Way Life's meant To Be

Agree totally. Knowing how these things work, the cheating two hat will probably get a five-fer and end up on the bloody honours board!!!!

We probably need to win 3 out of 4 to qualify would you say MCMC1875?
