Cook seems to have heeded our advice and pissed in the middle urinal when he elected to bowl.

In reply to Ged. It was a collective you, Dandy Dan, covering both yourself and Price. In much the same way as urinal use in the presence of others is, by definition, a collective wee. In any case, I think the word "sorry" at the end of my original posting on this thread is more than enough apology stuff. I'm no apologetic cubical-skulker, me. What do you take me for?

Is it any coincidence that the day after the king posts this, cook complains about personal attacks?

In reply to Ged.

Woah, woah, woah. This is Price’s theory, not mine.

I think I made that perfectly clear in the article.

Ged. I await your apology.

In reply to sam. Classic endurinalist talk. As you say, gone by the end of the year.

In other news, Alastair Cook is currently digging himself a massive hole. I wouldn’t be surprised if he quits by the end of the year.

“To be criticised for 3 years totally with those results,I find quite hard to take, and support and positivity is what this team needs.
“Something needs to be done. for 3 years of being England captain, in my eyes, I have been criticised for a hell of a lot of that.”

Oh dear.

Michael Clarke, now, I bet he’d stand right beside you, tell you straight that he was going to break at least one of your arms and then intentionally misdirect his aim over your new suede shoes, before later apologising to the bar (but not to you) about overstepping the line, while remaining suitably vague about which line exactly he had overstepped (invasion of personal space, threat to break your arm, ruining your shoes or some arbitrary line in the car park).

But I could be wrong about that.

In reply to Ged.

Mike Brearley would use the end urinal when appropriate, or the middle urinal when he felt it was required. I’ve no doubt he said during that epic series, “Hey Both, you use whichever urinal suits you best,” but that he would note which urinals all they players were using and adjust his field settings accordingly. It’s all in his book – Urinalysis.

At least you didn’t meet Monty Panesar in there. By all accounts he doesn’t care much for urinals at all.

Mike Brearley is an end urinal man. He comes form the right sort of family and went to the right sort of school.

Your theory, while momentarily enticing, is thus proved to be specious and is now in tatters, Dandy Dan. Sorry.
