The Rolling Stones - Beast of Burden

We contributed to our own downfall by dropping so many catches, as well as a couple more brainless shots to add to the collection (and yes, despite your century I'm looking at you Harry Brook!)... ...but, you have to tip your hat to India for seizing their chance both yesterday afternoon and today and I think 2-2 is a fair outcome. I also thought there were two poor LBW decisions given against England this morning. The second one was rightly overturned (it would have missed another two stumps down the leg side FFS) but the 'umpire's call' one looked incredibly harsh as well in real time. Great series though, thoroughly enthralling from first ball to last.

England I would say. We were on the ropes there when the rain came. I can still see Woakes coming out to bat tomorrow with us needing 10 or so to win. Its been a terrific series tbf.

I think Colin and Kevin would have coped tbf

I work in East Kilbride. Today EKFC played their first ever professional league match. This is local lads Paul McStay and Ally McCoist at the game. Both terrific players in their day but McStay seems to have morphed into Louis Walsh!!

He’ll be gone by the end of October. They don’t suffer fools gladly on either side of the great divide up here.

Well done fellas but how the fuck did you not get Paul Dickov? 😉😘

Rangers playing catch-up already and Celtic haven’t even kicked a fucking ball yet.

We all know what comes next. England will have 2+ days to chase 275 and we’ll get bowled out for under 200 slogging.

Shame we had to let Speedie go as part of the Shearer deal…

I agree with you on Warhurst and I think Sutton was equally versatile. He was even a county-standard cricketer!

Indeed. We used to think Vince O'Keefe was a bit of a liability but he's a better keeper than those four put together. As evidenced at Wembley in 1987.

I loved Tony Field but hard to leave Garner out and Field only played for us in the third tier. I swithered over Terry Gennoe instead of Sir Roger for the same reason.

I struggled to leave out Steve Archibald tbh but in truth he was never a true lower league player. Moran, Cowans and Speedie did at least sign permanent Rovers contracts, even though they belonged in the top flight too. Edit: I also completely forgot about Scottie Sellars! He would probably edge out Waggy tbf.

I started going to the Rovers in the very early 70s so missed the likes of Duggie and Ronnie. I'm gonna be greedy and pick two teams, the first one a lower league Rovers best-ever and the second one from the Premier League era. Lower league: Sir Roger Jones Chris Price Kevin Moran Derek Fazackerley Kevin Hird Noel Brotherston Simon Barker Gordon Cowans Dave Wagstaffe Simon Garner David Speedie Premier League: Brad Friedel Henning Berg Colin Hendry Ryan Nelsen Graeme Le Saux David Bentley Tugay David Batty Damian Duff Alan Shearer Craig Bellamy

There are too many speed merchants in the men's game who would kill you on a counter. Even Kargbo would be lethal in that scenario.

Yeah I wondered that as well.
