You’re going home In a bristol ambulance ?

Interesting goalkeeping

If you can go 2x45 mins without a drink then you can’t have watched us at AG much recently!

Very happy to be in the western terrace for that!

You are right to say the CPS do not have to continue proceedings for domestic abuse cases however often they and the police do so even when the victim makes a retraction statement and / or no longer wants to support the prosecution. The law was changed relatively recently to allow this as it is now recognised that often domestic abuse situations are complex and if the perpetrator is controlling and abusive, as is often the case, then they will put pressure on the victim to retract. A victim in this context may not always realise or see themselves as a victim and the police’s intervention can and often does allow a break from the abuse for the first time (imposition of bail conditions for example) and for the victim to seek support from domestic abuse support services. The police may have other evidence such as injury photos of the victim, independent witness statements, cctv etc which may mean a realistic prospect of a conviction with or without the victims support.

I am very happy to have been proven wrong!

True, just disappointing to fold so limply with so much to play for in this test.

This game is over already

What odds on the words ‘Joey Barton’, ‘fight’ and ‘Bristol city centre’ appearing together in the news in the next year?

We’re doomed

Impressed with Stone so far, good pace and consistency

Get in!!!

They’re scoring far too freely and quickly. Moeen is leaking plenty, need some control! oh yes Leachy!!

This looks ominous!

I was always surprised by how many City fans wanted Tisdale here

I went out just after 6am and it was fresh! Love running in the cold though, much prefer it to running when it’s warm strangely

Having been to Australia and NZ in the recent past with England I can confirm that your comments extend to the locals too!

Kohli just took a DRS review at the last second as the time ticked from 15 seconds all the way down to 1 second. Nick Knight - ‘and he’s gone (for it)...last hour, last minute!’ If only there was a suitable unit of time that existed to describe this more accurately!

Keep going for an hour I reckon, try to get past 600 grinding them down even more. Wouldn’t be surprised if we lose the last couple of wickets pretty quickly in the morning anyway

Good first hour, got to go biiiig!

Get in Jimmy 7-2! Worth getting up for again

Squeaky bum time

Fantastic start now, good for Leach to get his first wicket early and happy for Lawrence his drop didn’t matter too much!

Not quite Denly at Hamilton but that is poor. might cost us a few runs I fear! Leach getting some good turn though

Wood hitting 91mph first over
