May as well get the thread started ready now autumn is upon us. The squad. Ben Stokes (captain), Jofra Archer, Gus Atkinson, Shoaib Bashir, Jacob Bethell, Harry Brook (vice-captain), Brydon Carse, Zak Crawley, Ben Duckett, Will Jacks, Ollie Pope, Matthew Potts, Joe Root, Jamie Smith...

Given the significant amount of public money that’s ploughed into track and field, a five medal return from the World Championships, none of them gold, is rubbish. Someone should be sacked.

The last ever cricket match there will take place today. An iconic ground, full of history. Some of my favourite days out were watching cricket there back in the day. Sad times.

Dies aged 76. So glad he had the chance for a final send off with Sabbath a couple of weeks ago.

The greatest series of Test cricket ever played began at Lord’s. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/cricket/videos/c62gj91qp6qo

I’m all for it personally. I would have been anyway and have been for years but the fact that it’s upset the Twitter patriot bots just makes it all the better. Tamping they are.

Some great memories here, whether remembered or reminded, if you’re a sports fan of a certain age. Superb stuff. Enjoy. http://that1980ssportsblog.blogspot.com/

Starts tomorrow. Live across the BBC and ITV. Cymru women’s first major international tournament but they’re in the Group of Death alongside France, the Netherlands and champions England who are also there. Cymru’s group games: Saturday 5 July 5pm v Netherlands. BBC1 Wednesday 9 July 8pm v...

Dudley Lewis has passed away, aged 62. Very sad indeed. 300 appearances for the Swans. Anyone of a certain age (like me and probably most of us on here) will remember him very well. RIP, Dudley and condolences to his family and friends.

PSG v Inter, 8pm kick off, TNT and Discovery Plus. Could be a classic. May not be of course. Finals rarely are. I’m looking forward to it.

Paul Doyle, 53, from the West Derby area of Liverpool, has been charged with dangerous driving, causing grievous bodily harm with intent, wounding with intent to cause GBH and attempting to cause GBH with intent. So extremely white, British and 53. Not that this will keep the patriots quiet...

We’re about to go again, cricket fans and it’s a bumper summer ahead. A one off Test against Zimbabwe at the end of this month. Three ODIs and three T20s against the West Indies The main event - five Tests against India Three ODIs and three T20s against South Africa And then for some reason...

I hope they win tonight and go up. They seem to attract a lot of hate from some Welsh people. Usually the self hating Welshies. Uppa Wrecsam.

BBC1 and S4C, 7.45pm kick off. Hopefully the road to the World Cup starts here. Uppa Cymru.

Blown a two goal away first leg advantage at Ibrox. Now 3-3 on aggregate against Mourinho’s Fenerbache. Get the popcorn out. Union flag shaggers crying is always good value.

I have and I’m feeling quite smug about it :cool:

Seems to be on the verge of leaving this life for the next. And to think we watched Conclave the other week. Excellent film. They should definitely put Voldemort in charge of the next one.

Started Wednesday in Pakistan and Dubai and a bit under the radar so far. England v Australia now in both teams’n first group game. Good start from England against a fairly depleted Australia without Cummings, Starc and Hazelwood. 128-2 after 18. Pakistan v India tomorrow which can’t be bad for...

Many of us will remember him from this site in its many forms over the years. He passed away just after Christmas after a battle with cancer. Very sad.

Seems they’ve had a falling out and are no longer chums. What with that and the increasing irrelevance of the Tories under the hilariously inept Badenoch, the right/far right (almost indistinguishable these days) is becoming increasingly fragmented and inward looking at a time when the new...
