    Only for acts of violence apparently. It will likely help in village cricket.

    It's about time they clamped down on diving.

    And deliberate handball

    I was trying to think of reasons why they would introduce this but I'm stumped.

    So you can't toss or flash on the field of play anymore.

    I once got sent off years ago playing cricket. Well, I wasn't actually sent off, but I was asked to field a long way from the middle on the boundary at both ends.

    I was keeping wicket, standing back to one of the fastest bowlers in our club. We got somebody out and the incoming batsman was a rather nice young lady wearing a short white skirt. After a few deliveries I decided to stand up, despite the all pace attack. There were loads of byes, but it was worth it.

    Eventually the lady accused me of attempting a leg glance. Of course I denied this, but in reality I was trying to see if she had a deep gulley, and I was interested to see how she coped with bouncers. She got rather edgy about things, especially when I asked her to help with polishing our balls. I pointed out that she had a fine leg, she accused me of trying to pull, and I was despatched to the boundary to save further embarrassment.

    It's true!

    Did I mention that time I went to the chippy in Dodworth after a 2-2 draw against Norwich years ago? Some aggressive looking bloke in the queue behind me accosted me in the street outside and made me admit that Gwyn Thomas' shot has crossed the line. I looked at him and said simply "I agree".

    That doesn't surprise me in the slightest. You've always had far more class than I.

    Talking of which, I saw Mr C being dragged off to the pub by that huge, vicious, ferocious dog, on Crystal's facebook page the other day! :D:D

    Yes, it's the now famous Buster, a trained fighting dog. Mr C has kindly agreed to look after him while my dad is in hospital and I'm in the EU. The Wentworth Whisperer is doing a sterling job.

    Buster certainly seemed relaxed & content in the pub. Paul must've needed a great deal of persuasion in order for him to be dragged there by the two dogs.:D
