Oh thank God. I've been wanting to make a thread about this but I didn't really reckon it warranted it, so I'll just use this one. What does everybody reckon about the sportsmanship row where the club cricketer threw the ball to the boundary rather than let the batsman get his ton? League have given him a 9 game ban apparently. Anybody here seen any worse when playing?
Spiteful, childlike behaviour. Might be banned for nine games but I doubt anyone will have him in their side after that anyway. Pathetic. That said if he’s a young fella - and I don’t know if he is - hopefully he’ll regret his actions, be a bit embarrassed and maybe grow up a little from the experience. Whilst we’re utilising otherwise pointless threads, anyone have an answer to the age old question: If a tree falls in the woods but there’s nobody around to hear it, will folk from London and the South East still have an inflated and unwarranted sense of superiority?
Danger Ranger, is that a cross between a Power Ranger and Nile Ranger, or is it a bit more Lone Ranger,
Wow. What a pillock. I’d not read so much about it other than the headline stuff, I’d assumed he would be no more than 19 or 20
Happened a couple of years ago, Cornish team declared on 1 or something similar chasing 250. It meant the opposition couldn’t get any bonus bowling points so even though they lost the game they won the league by a point Was uproar apparently
Anyways, I've heard you're battling Wednesday for this Spanish player, Embargo, on a long term deal so don't reckon we have anything to worry about from you lot
Last time I was out for a few beers in Brixton, if you'd cup open the head of every person on the street outside the tube and extracted their grey matter, you still wouldn't have had enough good cells with which to construct one vaguely functional brain.
Brixton is no East Dulwich, Peckham Rye, Camberwell... but its certainly come on a bit, fantastic indoor market/ series of eateries of just about every ethnicity you can imagine and Pop Brixton had a cool vibe to it. Prefer Peckham levels personally (the most impressive conversion of a multistorey, sadly due to be demolished in a few years), but was still good. As for the area around white city, the Westfield at least levelled some of the dereliction, but there are few approaches to football grounds that plumb the same depths as arriving at the duplo (I nearly suggested Lego, but frankly it's not that good) stadium in west London.
We went to Pop Brixton the night before the JPT final and had a cracking time. The locals on the streets were pretty special though. Especially the old guy in the wheelchair who was very openly knocking out drugs outside the tube, and his mate in the QPR scarf who was talking to himself in a very loud mumble.
Been to a fair few gigs there, the craziest a midnight set by the prodigy. Very dodgy at night and not a place i'd go even though its gentrified a bit.
