Idle cricket musing

[Brendan]

What do charaters from East Enders have to do with it anyway?

[ladida]

Keef, I beg to differ. He is more consistant than not and a god captain. Rather get rid of Pieterson than Vaughn or Strauss, who seems to think the pitch is a playground when he's batting and misses too many opportunities for steady innings'. The team need stalwarts who can inspire teamwork and inspiration to the up and coming players. Without them I imagine it would be a shambles.

Going Saturday to get drunk and have a sleep, and if I'm lucky I might get to see a wicket. If I see 3 in a day I feel privilaged.

Any pubs showing it bearing in mind the CPT has cut off Sky and The Mag is closed?

[Brendan]

Yeah get rid of Pietersen! That's the best idea I've heard in ages. >:D<

So the rumours about the CPT not having sky are true then? Pity, what with their new telly and the fact that they could cash in on all Mag?s business.

[david_carnell]

The Castle have sky. So do the EDT. And there's nowt else on to watch.

[Brendan]

So does the vale I suppose.

[mockney piers]

castle have a nice shiny new tv too.

[Brendan]

Ok Piers. I nominate you to be the guy who goes to ask them to switch over to the cricket.

[david_carnell]

Without wishin to put the mockers on (no forumite pun intended) this is beginning to look ok again.

Pieterson and Bell making hay while the sun shines.

I'm up for the Castle or EDT on Saturday for some cricket action and teasing Brendan about beef jerky and Fat Kallis

[Brendan]

That jerk Beefy is English isn't he?

[Brendan]

So Edt around lunchtimeish?

[david_carnell]

Sounds good.

Can you get Lamb(y) jerky?

[david_carnell]

50 for Pieterson!

[Ted Max]

I'm doing some live watching tomorrow (did I mention that?) and then attempting to play my own version of the game on Saturday so won't be able to join you.

This Paterson fellow (think Cricinfo is spelling his name wrong) is a fine example of English batsmanship. Reminds me of fellow Beefeaters Robin Smith and Alan Lamb in his ability to hit the ball with an uncomplicated, Christian swing of the bat.

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

In the spirit of Zola Budd, well done Mr P.

[Brendan]

Bloody hell! They put on almost 100 runs during my commute home.

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

Behind you!

[Brendan]

(!)

[Brendan]

pre second day reflections.

Will the weather hold?

Will I get nay work done today?

If you make a contraction out of Fat Kallis you end up with F?allis.

Was the fact that I misspelt any as nay a Freudian slip?

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

Albie Morkel anagrams as: bore milk ale.

I have no work to do, what's your excuse?

[david_carnell]

reMorkelble work PGC!

[Brendan]

I am a thin yank

is an anagram for?

[david_carnell]

Makhaya Ntini!

What do I win?

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

I think ya a man?

[Brendan]

A sense of self satisfaction

[david_carnell]

I'm not playing any more then.

I'm already smug and self satisfied having watched highlights of yesterday!
