Of my three mates one was neutral, one Gloucester and the other Somerset like me.

Nether of us could work out why Arafat bowled the death over. I thought Overton would have been a better option. Conceding a six pretty much did the job for Goucester.

But.....we enjoyed the evening along with a few pints - a good night was had by all.

Suppose it's a case of 20/20 (get it) hindsight !

Ungracious in victory.  Stinks of gas

Can't remember how to be ungracious in defeat, that's the problem !

Lummy Daze !

Come back when you're good enough, Trego & co.......then you'll be TOO old !

and here's one from a very apt band and a very apt track for Somerset.

 

I'd forgotten them, didn't that Roberts guy from Radio Drivel play in them ?

Gloucestershire have bottled it, typically.  Gas-like 

Bottle it.......yes you could do with some of our winning formula!

Put all your eggs in one T20 basket and BLOW IT 

LOSERS.....LOSERS...LOSERS    

(and I can't stand hit & giggle, but everytime we thrash Somerset...what the hey)

Care to reevaluate?

edit: and we've won more than you have. So that makes Somerset the gas. 

Yes, we've got more than the Watney Cup to keep in our trophy room !

But NOT the LeicesterSHIRE, eh ?.

12 of us going. 6 never been to watch cricket before. Should be interesting.

That's fine, it's NOT cricket, so they still won't have !

"Rovers Star Is Moving On"....

This would be a"star" that is moving from the dizzy heights of Lg ! to Lg2  ?

Gotta lurve the EP       

Surely more apt to say Rovers Player, unless this is some usage of the term "star" I am not familiar with ?

"believed to have finally moved a step closer."

Poor journalism. Surely should read....Finally got the go-ahead, or

Moved one step closer.

You can't FINALLY move one step closer !

Wow Albert Mcann a great player.

Pompey fans used to sing to the tune of the Move's hit single Curly.

Albert Mcann is wonderful man and he plays for Pompey town.

and we love him like no other can, Mcann, Mcann, Mcann.

and Wagstaff remember him really well, Hull had another great player back then Ken Houghton, they had a really good team in those days including another great player Chris Chilton.

Cost them 60 k apiece, unheard of in those days !

He was a great player for Hull. At 73 he's obviously too old for City, but I'm sure he could still get into the Rovers team.  

Remember him scoring a hat trick at the Gate in a 3-3 draw circa 66/7  !

(as did Albert McCann in another 3-3er at home...Gibbo's worst ever game for the City)

1130 start at New Road - think Worcs are about 230 odd in front

Chuck the bat for an hour, get to 300 in front and let Shants and Leachy plough through them for 140 just before tea

Ideal! 

CAN WE PLAY YOU EVERY WEEK !

Ikea Tony is a well down deluded fewer.. he's been saying the same shit for years.

Must be from Glenside.

Ok ,own up. Which one of you is "Tote End Tony" in the EP letters. Brilliant piss-take of a gapper. 45 k at Wembley, 50k seat UWE, priceless...and the EP have been well and truely fished in !

Behind the Franchise moaner in pecking order, says it all!

BTW who will his "how did that lot down the road get on" team be.....Guisley ?

You missed the bit about your ridiculous nickname.  "Pirates" I ask you.  Where did that nonsense come from.  You were formed in Purdown for goodness sake.  I suppose you could now claim that a large Somali community now leaves close to where you used to play, but apart from that I can't see any connection with Bluebeard, Captain Morgan and Jolly Jack Tar, other than some immature adolescent fantasy.

Probably invented by City fans as a slur. Taken on by blue few as a nick-name......ring any bells ?

Miah,

I see (according to EP) one of your Leg-ends was injured in an RTA over the weekend.

You will have watched him, as I did. My point is ,where does the EP get off calling "LEGEND" on any hobbledehoy who happens to pull on a jesters shirt for a couple of games?

I refer of course to the world renowned.... Christian McLean !

(wish him quick recovery BTW )
