I don't know if he was the last (and accepted it isn't in the County Championship), but ANDY GORAM played first class cricket for Scotland in 1991 while playing at Rangers.

International Breaks are great, they mean you can get some winter sun without having to miss any games.

Yep! Although give it a couple of weeks after season ends and I'll be looking forward to it starting again.
I don't think he is a troll. I think he's just an utterly miserable old man. And has been like it for years. I remember him moaning about our style of play under Poyet. GET IT FORWARD!

Great for planning holidays and not missing a game......
Good one. He didn't play county cricket but he did make two FC appearances
There's a term for this Down Under: "whinging Pom"

Don't encourage him. He probably has an algorithm for all of us.

All caused by the TV companies constant demand for "product". The World Club bollocks this summer feels like the straw that may break the camel's back to me. Really hope it crashes and burns. Be interesting to see what impact it has on City and Chelsea next season.
It's not just football either. The Tennis players unions are kicking off about the number of Tournaments they are expected to play.
The reported increase in the number of injuries in football recently is surely not a coincidence.

In the Times, serial whinger Martin Samuel.says the PL is a bit shit now anyway. El Classico, 8 goal thriller, Mbappe...errr financial fair play.....
That blokes at least consistently a bell.

We won't be far off a players strike if this continues
There needs to be a game cap for players , the number of injuries seem to be increasing every year

Is he wrong?
Past couple of years it's been a bit meh
Teams playing pretty much the same way, and side to side football, with the odd exception.
Even city with their dominance haven't really been an exciting watch most the time.
I think it's still a good watch compared with La Liga, Serie A etc. I would prefer the title and relegation spots to be decided on the last day, but you can't have everything. What Samuel wants is unlimited spending, which I don't agree with.

I agree too. The solution is a league with fewer teams.

I really like it when one of the miserable energy-sappers on here gets told off in an eloquent and deserved manner.
