  1. Whoever designed these goals needs to give up. Level 7 on the football pyramid.
  2. Good morning. I once saw a man stuff a lion and a witch into a wardrobe. I asked him what he was doing and he replied " Go away, it's narnia business"
  3. Not the NFL but i don't think you'll see a better catch in any football game this season
  4. I would let it go all the way to the TEC and let them decide, I know i may ultimately cost a bit more but Dorset CC may cave in before it gets that far
  5. Resorting to personal attacks? Any she didn't leave her ground early, once, twice, three times or even 20 times before she was run out, she left her ground early 73 times during her innings. If that isn't trying to gain an unfair advantage i don't know what is.
  6. 'Warning before mankading has gone on for decades' It may happen now and again but there are players who play in the ECB Premier leagues that are known for it. One bowler in particular in the South Wales Premier league is well known for it. I umpire in the local leagues, i've never had it happen, if it did and the captain wanted to withdraw the appeal i would refuse the request and give the player out. It's gaining an unfair advantage. As from next Saturday, it comes under Law 38 - Run Out, so there wont be any discussion about it.
  7. I know, a stumping is the same principle, batter out of their ground, do you want the wk to warn the batter before they're stumped? And this one?
  8. It's not the same, the batter has left her ground before the point of expected delivery, therefore gaining an unfair advantage. I didn't watch the game but from that delivery i'd bet the batter was leaving her ground early on a few occasions and the Indians were aware of this.
  9. Firstly cricket has 'Laws' not 'rules', it also is not 'new'. The screen shot you've posted clearly shows the bowler has at least another 3/4 of an arm rotation before the point of delivery, this is the key point, not the delivery stride. By the point of delivery the batter would be out of her ground therefore gaining an advantage. Next month this form of dismissal is being moved to Law 38 Run Out, to make it plain that it's not the bowler who's in the wrong. MCC view is that it's a legitimate method of dismissal and a warning is not required.
  10. Sound up for this? The link to the full video on Youtube is in the comments, 3hrs 13mins for the full exchange?
  11. If anyone is into audit videos, the response from the male PCSO in this is utterly astounding. Probably the best yet for making BS up as he goes along. How he got the job in the first place is beyond me. There are some seriously thick people in jobs they shouldn't be in. https://youtu.be/4P4zvmQDWOA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4P4zvmQDWOA
  12. Also please remember that both you and I and everyone else on this forum has scored as many test centuries as former Aussie test captain Tim Paine, 0?
