Don't get TOO EXCITED... but the India series MAY be on Channel 4. Start Sports announcing who has the UK rights this week- Guardian
I'm really pleased for those without the extra knobs and handles if it happens. I always watch football and cricket assuming everyone else is doing the same. But...
Once King Percy of Tau arrived, his followers made the long journey to the Albion's Facebook page. They also settled in Twitter. Tauism has become an official religion and, despite a few cultural miss-understandings, we have slowly come to accept what will be will be. They have even cloaked...

As expected, Anderson to replace Broad.
Hopefully another improved response from Sri Lanka this time. A fine Test in the making if so.
One of the Test grounds in the world that I just look at and wish I was there.
Just a few to start with....
Brotherhood Of Man - Angelo
'They ran away to their destiny'
They actually committed suicide....
Sing A Rainbow- Peggy Lee
'Listen with your eyes....'
I've tried, it doesn't work
Hot Chocolate- I'll Put You Together Again

I don't do a lot of driving, no more than 5k a year.
I've got used to the 20mph speed limits in much of town. I have to say, I like it.
I spent many years not driving and came back to it. The observance of speed limits seems to make the roads much calmer these days. Which is good as I'm a bit...
Six Nations recently adopted the league bonus points system, one for running in four tries, one for a losing team that scores within 7 points of the winner. Works well and makes games more meaningful (this year's Six Nations being an example).
Could this ever be adapted to football and how...
Yes, I thought it was tonight. Even made sure I was home in time after meeting an old friend for coffee.
I look at NSC- no match day thread. No team news on Naylor's Twitter. Then the penny drops.
At least I was only going to watch it on the box.
I wonder if far worse things have happened to...
Okay, it's a parody play on a thread title, but....
There is a discussion point here.
It has occurred to me that perhaps some players have thrived without crowd pressure on them.
Solly is one. Are there others for ourselves and other teams ?
The autumn season is due to start in October once entrants have been confirmed.
As it stands, the leagues will remain the same with the promoted/relegated teams moving as shown.
New entrants are invited and anyone who wishes to participate no longer should indicate below. Please let me know...
It should be noted against the backdrop of Burnley in talk with an American Investment group at present.
It takes a lot to get me wound up, but I've lost a lot of respect for Sean Dyche after this. Lampard, however, gets it. Some will remember how long they spent in the lower leagues and, if I...
It's that time again.
I currently pay £83 a month for:
Sky broadband (inc line rental etc)
Sky Entertainment
Sky Sports (all channels)
BT Sport add-on (all channels)
I love a good haggle me and expect to get the price down. But I'd be interested for some pointers from those who have done...
They'll be more interest, at least for a while, this time round. So here for information and chat.
The fixtures are out for the Isthmian League which covers a number of the teams we follow, and teams some folk may choose to follow.
All here...
Non-league clubs at step three and below can admit fans to grounds

Having to make my own this term, I have pondered how to try and replicate the authentic experience.
What to have in the tea time sarnies ? How is our cricketing fraternity coping with this ?
I forgot last week.
After the fun of the inaugural league and the summer Euros the NSC league will enter its first domestic season shortly.
It will be a seasonal affair with summer, autumn, winter and spring leagues, each a month to six weeks in duration. The added fun will be promotion and relegation.
The...
is anyone else finding this 'cancel culture' a bit disturbing ? Like some in society have a self announced moral high ground of unforgiving totalitarian absolutism. Should I buy a lantern and a pitchfork ? Is there some hand held device that I can run my thoughts through ? I don't want hordes...
The curs-ed vector of disease is no longer the wicked sphere of peril....

Dust of yer whites and varnish yer bats. The village green will once again ring to the sound of leather on willow.
