    Assume that you are umpiring somewhere before?

    I know you can get the last train back to Weston

    I have heard that parking at the station is actually a good shout, otherwise by the time you get there you will be struggling

    I'm umpiring in Taunton so i'll have my car but the last train back is 21:40, game is starting at 7, I don't think realistically I can get that train unless game finishes early and i want to stay and see it all

    I'm not a world expert on cricket, I haven't seen an Indian touring team since 86(?) at Taunton.

    Kohli is a qrick not a patch on Gavaskar back then. I was sat among some Indian fans today, most of the players took tie to acknowledge them but Kohli? no that was below him. 

  3. Well i just got back from Edgbaston, left at 6:15 go to the ground a 8:45 a fantastic session of cricket watching probably England's greatest batsman and someone not far behind him.

    And Kohli is an arrogant qrick

    I would have thought by now,there are a "chosen few and "trusted" persons who would know the EFL fixtures that will be announced at 09:00am on Thursday

    I think the media get the opening days fixtures some time today(Wednesday) so that they can conduct the interviews and then they can play the interviews at 09:00am on Thursday.

    So two things

    1) Who would you like on the first day,it should be away as we will be away two weeks later

    I WOULD LIKE SUNDERLAND AWAY ON THE FIRST DAY,

    SECOND CHOICE NORWICH MIDDLESBROUGH OR HULL,just hope none of the four teams mentioned will NOT be played on a mid week date

    2) Would YOU actually know the fixture lists?

    answers BEFORE 08:00am on Thursday morning

    They've been all over facey for the past week?

    Got a feeling Hildreth will retire end of this season, he's been in gradual decline.

    Few others likely to move on too I think - Brooks, Waller, MDL.   So maybe quite an overhaul this winter. 

    He is and has been planning for a couple years, he has a job lined up.

    And Rest in Peace also the 649 Argentinians who lost their lives so needlessly, too. 

     

    I've visited both memorials, in Stanley and Buenos Aires and travelled extensively through Argentina 25-30yrs ago, every single Argentine i met then agreed we did the right thing and said the Junta was wrong. I never met one person who thought they were in the right and we were in the wrong.

    Fast forward to the past 10yrs children in schools are being indoctrinated, you wouldn't believe the 5hit they put on social media, they are absolutely convinced they sunk HMS Invincible and we secretly sailed a replacement south and pretended it never happened. 

    Unfortunately my respect for them went out the window several years ago.

    May be an image of aeroplane and outdoors

     May be an image of text that says "News wortd Argentinian pilot MOCKED after claiming he 'SUNK' HMS Invincible during Falklands War Gerardo Isaac claims he severely damaged HMS Invincible despite evidence the contrary (Image GETTY) AN ARGENTINIAN pilot has regaled crowds with a story about how he crippled flagship Royal Navy aircraft carrier during the Falklands War despite British veterans insisting their ship was never hit.
