Maybe. I’m self aware enough to recognise I might be being unfair and it’s a case of time that’s required. But it really needs to start improving not a bit but dramatically. There isn’t a proper revising chamber which for all its faults the Lords does have the expertise and experience to amend...

In addition to my post it will refreshing to see plaid having a go but we have to remember they’ve been junior partner on a number of occasions and are very similar to Labour. It’s not a big change which is what is required.

I think it’s overwhelmingly failed. It’s just a job creation vehicle in the bay. Outcomes are shocking and it’s increased Nationalism. Intentions were good but it’s been a disaster for Wales. Id not shed one tear if it were to go. But that ship has probably sailed.

A quarter of this Country are thick as shit.

Bethall was fantastic but I don’t like the ott reaction. He’s a good prospect but he needs to get games under his belt and learn his craft.

I’m with you sorry for the misunderstanding. That does make some sense. I think Plaid will be a better option than Labour in the sense you’d like to think they’ll be more Wales as a whole than the poverty stricken bits of the valleys and Cardiff. With everyone else just putting up with shit...

I hear you I think it’s because some odd people enjoy it and enjoy the “buzz” of it all. I always try as best as possible to avoid trolleys to make sure I only come back with what is required. Two reasons, no impulse purchasing and in and out as quick as possible.

Let’s just say our funding is “unfair” that is in the context of the Barnett formula. If we were independent all of the revenue for spending would need to be generated ourselves. No more city of London. We would be in a huge deficit. I can’t believe people believe we’d magically be okay. If...

I’ve tried not to comment on the independence stuff as it’s likely to derail the thread. All I’ll say is that goes against precisely the issues we’re discussing. Further retrenchment to borders, further splintering. Imagine Cardiff bay standing up to trump - I mean give your head a wobble...

It’s almost like post war Germany when they rightly had a period of de-nazification as the population was so brainwashed at the time. It’s like we need a truth and reconciliation period to remove the poison. Again this would be much easier in a different time but we now have the musks of the...

Agreed. They were warned, they’ve had overwhelming evidence ever since. But no who’s the guy for them Farage?!! The guy who smashed it up. But as you say it’s a global phenomenon, with people in the shadows pulling the strings and the idiots walking off the cliff like lemmings. I don’t see how...

Oh agreed but that’s also linked to a lack of preparation and focus on the hundred 20/20 shite

It’s the rational thing to do but it won’t happen because we have weak leadership and a brainwashed electorate

Other Nations are playing an updated version of the old game. Only England play bazball nonsense.

My word. This decision in retrospect just gets worse and worse. All the “project fear” stuff just looks more in hindsight like everything was completely underestimated. The “intellectual” wing of the Brexit vote was about a global, “sovereign” Britain. A free trading nostalgic shift towards...

I think one attacking opener is fine. I don’t mean bazball but more aggressive. Need to have a proper wicketkeeper. More fundamentally it’s the basics though. Proper test cricket techniques, match awareness and line & length. I sound like bloody boycott. I don’t want negative cricket. You...

Spot on their best did better And their worst did contributed a bit more. Aussies weren’t brilliant but they were intelligent and didn’t make lots of mistakes like dropping catches. I’m glad England lost last match it means changes will have to happen. Well done to Bethall and a strike rate...

Radical changes in structure of game. Binning the hundred, reforming central contracts. Sacking Baz. Focusing the setup on Test cricket and taking a Duncan Fletcher approach identifying players in county game with right mentality. Unfortunately retiring the likes of Wood and obviously binning...

Thanks for the update

Good start but I can’t help thinking it would be a different story if series was still Live. Wholesale changes need to happen but likelihood is they can sell a 3:2 as close when in reality they’ve been well beat
