Duckett gone for 83. My gut feeling is it'll be over by 4 o'clock. I can't see an epic finish like Stokes and Leach.

Count me out of this. So many of these are scams, or linked to scams. I have a friend who invests a bit in one called XLM or something like that, which proper traditional banks are apparently investing in. There may be some legit ones, but I'm not getting involved as it would be the same as me betting on a Kabbadi tournament.

We will lose this one. And Anderson should retire. Brilliant on occasion but we need a younger, athletic fielder, and a really fast aggressive bowler. Surely there's someone in the county game who can do that. Wood is a bit injury prone and hit and miss, and Archer is sadly finished before he started. The next generation need to be in now.

Their bowlers seem to be in better form of han ours, which is bad when you are facing the likes of Smith.

I hope the orange powder stuff is environmentally. Maybe he can have a go at the Aussies since our bowlers are doing pretty badly

My money is on Broad getting Warner out, after giving him a torrid time.

Lord Lucan, Shaergar and Jimmy Hoffa.

It did feel like that 😁Every time some 6 foot 5 rugby player type came into view, I thought "don't stand in front of me please."

Rammstein were immense last night. Unlike the UK concerts last year they played at night, so the lights really shone and the set list was better than last year. The only bad thing was by being in the standing area, I seemed to end up with a tall guy in front of me and a short person behind. I didn't want to stand right in front of them. https://youtu.be/JBtQZODD6Yk

I know. We've had so many kicks in the knackers you can't help expecting another Shebby Singh situation.

Ince? Hahaha!!! He did well for a couple of months last season, then had the mother of all Mowbrayesque death spirals. How he gets any football league job is beyond me.

Wilsdenrover is going to launch the world's nuclear missiles unless Mathew Broderick or Eddie Furlong can stop him.

I think that brief period on Sunday when it was pitch black,and we lost a couple of wickets was very important. The umpires were pretty poor in not checking the light until it rained again. However if Australia were batting I'd probably say tough luck and laugh. Either way, Bazball is making test cricket exciting with the super aggressive approach, and may keep the format going.

It's good d to see an old fashioned tonking of a smaller nation. There was a period a while ago when we'd have laboured to win 2 or 3 nil to these nations, with the likes of Lampard playing like Jason Lowe.

On a strictly football based note, it makes you wonder who will come in. Bournemouth are not that much of a name when compared to other struggling Premier League teams, and the squad is pretty below par by the division's standard.

Luton Town will win it like Leicester. All the plastic clubs will freak out visiting Kenilworth Road, with it's away stand and crap corporate boxes, and lose. Then the natives will steal their clothes and shoes because they fancy something different to cannabis smelling tracksuits.

Good analogy DE. Man City fans are obviously loving it, but I bet even a few who've been there when they fell to the third tier, or were a middling Premier League team in the 90s feel like the success is a bit easy now. Once they've done a Real Madrid and become serial Champions League winners, it may feel a bit plastic and hollow. You can have too much of a good thing.

I get a vague sense that there is a desire for 'real football/sport' and the top teams are being seen like a trip to the West End. The average attendance at Coventry RFU seems to increase every season since I started going, attendances in the divisions below the Premier League are generally doing well despite the economic clusterfuck, and rugby League is probably well attended. Shame we have an absolutely useless, moribund and failing administration and marketing department that seems intent on killing support and grass roots involvement.

Nah, I don't buy into that 'English team' thing. To me, it's the same as the Chennai Super Kings winning the IPL. Good entertainment, but no real connection.

That Bolton shirt is indeed ruined, like ours. Incidentally I did see a branch of Totally Wicked in Bridlington, when I was there a few weeks ago. Not entirely sure it was open, but I have not noticed one in Coventry, which is obviously a larger place that is not so isolated.

The sports washing financial cheats won.

Knowing Venkys, Waggott will go, and then they will hire Bassini and Ridsdale in a similar position.

I think Sampdoria are also an absolute basket case club right now. Possibly dodgy owners or something.

I'm not sure how to say I'm safe without it sounding like a bit of a bad taste joke.

That sounds like a crap crowd. Everyone was really into it at my gig. Next gig is hopefully Rammstein later this month........a bit awkward given recent headlines.
