Heading over later. Was not going to, but sentimentality got the better of me. Brum on an early Saturday evening was my first game in person. The all whites played Australia in the afternoon so kick off was pushed back (6:30?). Terrible game but was hooked. Mainly over the chanting about Archie...

Needs more steady Strauss and Cook types to balance out what, Root aside, is a very cavalier side.

In fairness he made these points at the start. Woefully underprepared both in terms of game time and mentally. Root, Tongue and Bethell (and to an extent Archer until he was crocked again) come out with reputation intact. I do not believe it's a lack of talent but one of application. The likes...

Sad news.

Nearly 40 years old but as relevant as the Reagan/Bush interventions in Latin America

In the blue corner we have Ixodes ricinus. In the red corner we have Argas persicus. My money is on Ixodes as it’s a Hard Tick.

Inevitable conclusion of allowing Cardiff and Llanelli as ‘regions’ with support from a pliant media for the capital and the ‘special’ Scarlets. Should have had real regions from the start. West, West Central, East Central and East based in Swansea, Bridgend-area, Cardiff and Newport . All new...

That’s a hard one. Being only a few years older Hugh was a someone I could relate to as Glamorgan captain and was a rock with Steve James for the county at the top of the order. Hugely successful career as ECB and GCCC chief and very much turned around Glammy off the field. Will be hugely...

Lived in Tooting as a student 87/88. Near Broadway Station

Lived by Queens Road Station so towards New Cross. Working as a technician in central London on £500 a month. The market was a godsend. Lived in Tooting and Streatham too. Actually quite liked Peckham. Given me a long term like of curry goat!

I lived in Peckham 90/91. Interesting.

Indeed. From the queue at Rossi’s to the atmosphere it was like going back about 12 years. Was only weeks ago when the talk here was the 14k crowds.

Had more aggro in 14 months in Oxford than years in South London. Nasty undercurrent between locals getting priced out and the university which owns everything

I agree with what you and Darran are saying. At the end of the day he lost his rag and used his car as a weapon. If he had stabbed 30+ people we would not be even discussing the sentence.

Was about to say the same. Good competitive stuff from both sides
