[Cricket] Bristow

[TheDuke]

Would we be 2 Tests down if we had another keeper?

 

[NorthLainer]

One-hundred and eighty!!

 

[banjo]

It’s all Eric’s fault.

 

[Goldstone Guy]

We'd thrash Australia at darts.

 

[Joey Jo Jo Jr. Shabadoo]

Not sure playing someone who died 5 years ago is a good idea.

We'd thrash Australia at darts.

Ok, ok… slip of the fingers… Bairstow of course.. you are a cruel lot

 

[Weststander]

Aah … Bristow.

 

[Questions]

Who remembers Bristows main rival Ted Lowe…
He was called ‘Whispering Ted’ because he had had a dart thrown at his throat in a snooker hall,

I played against Beachy Lazerenko with Whispering Ted watching. Keith Mellor was there too. My old league partner played tournies with Dennis "The Menace" Bishop as well.

 

[TheDuke]

Could someone please change to Bairstow please… don’t know how

 

[Sussexscots]

He's undercooked and it shows

 

[Seagull58]

Bairstow has been very poor with the gloves. With hindsight, we would almost certainly have done better with Guy Fawkes behind the stumps.

After all the time he spent on the rack you'd hope he'd be able to reach some of the chances down the leg side.

 

[Farehamseagull]

Bit of a crafty thread.

Mrs Bristow, a splendid teacher at Balfour back in the day.

 

[Goldstone Guy]

We'd probably have about as much chance of winning this ashes series now if we picked Jocky Wilson to lead the bowling attack, Ted Hankey bowling off-spin, and Raymond van Barneveld with Andy Fordham to open the batting.

 

[simmo]

I don't know, he has been different gravy with the bat at times over the last few years

 

[Pavilionaire]

I remember when we had specialist test wicketkeepers, like Bob 'The Power' Taylor.

Jack 'Russell' Bray

Denis the ‘Menace’ ended up in fairgrounds being bashed up by flash young darters.. It wasn’t nice because he’d gorge on candyfloss and greasy doughnuts.
