In reply to Hoopy.

Incredible, isn’t it?

Except of course it isn’t: Langer has kept this sort of world-class shit-talking alive and well in the Aussie camp, and presumably the young ‘uns think they are demonstrating elite loyalty (commitment, patriotism… who the hell knows) by parroting it.

(Does make me want to throw up, though…)

Morrison’s is Mozza’s and Sainsbury’s is Saino’s. In my house anyway. The rule round here – if in doubt, abbreviate

In reply to Balladeer. "detach myself from the story of being a professional cricketer" Straight from the the Haydos school of elite bollocksery.

I had an American friend once who decided his English football team was going to be ‘The Wolves’. I enjoyed it so much I never corrected him.

I’ve now had a chance to read the rest of his speech.

God he talks a lot of bollocks, doesn’t he?

To paraphrase Groucho Marx…(or rather to mash Marx with Bancroft)…

People in Liverpool refer to The Asda and The Aldi but strangely not The Tesco or The Morrison’s.

In reply to Ged Ladd. We wonder how many new people will start reading The King Cricket this summer.
