I see McGrath is predicting a 5-0 once again.
Does anyone think he even believes that himself or is it just part of the usual Aussie mind games?
So big Nate is going to spin us out at Cardiff then is he Glenn?
Right you are.
For some reason I never had much time for Gatting when he was a player but I liked his piece in the Times on the Ashes series. His quote on KP was my favourite :
"I'd much rather watch him than listen to him"

Is lanky Geordie (Mackem?) miserablist Steve Harmison doing a Brett Lee and bowling himself back into the team for the First Test and if so whose place is most vulnerable? Anderson seems a certainty and Broad adds useful runs late down the order. Here is a wild thought. If we go with 2...
Well as it happens I do have some Corona in the fridge.
It was 107F when I was driving home yesterday so Corona hits the spot.
Come winter it will be replaced with more suitable beers but for
now it does a job.
Good to have some representation from the physically challenged.
Any bi-peds care to...
While enjoying a day off work for the Independence Day holiday the subject of beer came to mind. Nasty Miller and Bud products aside there are actually some decent beers to be had. Taking the liberty of including Canada some tried and tested chez Mays include :
Yeungling
Sam Adams Boston...
Is it just me or is that comedy genius? "The central heating broke and I had to stand in front of the oven to thaw my pussy".
Glad I'm not a celebrity as they seem to be dropping like flies.
David Caradine , Wacko Jacko , Farrah Fawcett , Billy Mays and now Mrs Slocombe.
Erdinger , Witterkerke , Hooegarden are all marvellous summer beers. Blue Moon is ok. At the risk of sounding like a beer snob it actually depresses me that people drink Budweiser. Whenever I see anyone buying it I always try to talk them out of it.
Actually Anheuser Busch do do one half...
Thanks for your concern Juan Albion. Very sad news about my namesake and quite the most distressing celebrity passing of the weekend. Have been dormant on here for too long but couldn't let the passing of the champion of Ka Boom go unremarked.
Hats off to Klinger of Planet Radio who...
Hats off for spotting this deliberate error which was thrown in to establish the credibility of anyone professing an opinion on the subject. Having cleared this hurdle successfully what else can you tell me of Monsieur Blanc's prostate issues?
A sports journalist Albion supporting friend of mine is convinced that Laurent Blanc had a Paula Radcliffe style incident after scoring in the 1998 WC Final but has been unable to confirm said net/urine collision actually occurred. As much as I'm desperate to believe "c'est vrai" I have to say...
This is very irritating and has spoiled an otherwise very enjoyable day for me. For weeks I've been enjoying PFC's inexorable journey towards the relegation zone. The ineptitude of other teams at the bottom has served only to delay the inevitable and mean that 1) when they hit the bottom there...
I'd like to see Bournemouth overcome their 17 point deduction to stay in the league as well. Couldn't really give a rat's arse about Southampton one way or the other but Kevin Keegan has got nothing on how I would love it if PFC went down.
Hopefully it will be given to the US of A and England will play their group games at Jacksonville Municipal Stadium. If this comes to pass I'll even consider giving certain select NSC'ers a floor to kip on!
Hello - I'm an old fucker who was trawling the internet looking for an opportunity to moan about kids being off school/college when I stumbled upon this thread.
Kids today eh? Bastards the lot of 'em. A spell in the army would sort them out and if it doesn't we should just shoot them.
Thank...
Haven't been to a game since a particularly dull 2-1 home defeat by Chesterfield in October 2006 but is there any chance of Hawkins have a Guy Butters style come back after a less than promising start and becoming one of our most popular players in years or is all that about as likely as a not...
