  1. 3 months apart, hasn't effected the Aussies though! I bet that if England had won this series as well, no one would have even mentioned how close the two series were!
  2. Sounds to nice, not for me then!
  3. As it's a Cricket thread...... Corey Anderson stroked a scarcely-believable innings of 131 not out in New Zealand's win over the West Indies at Queenstown today, breaking the world record for the fastest ODI century. His ton came off 36 balls, beating Shahid Afridi's 18-year-old record by one delivery. His stay at the crease lasted 51 minutes and spanned 41 balls, good for a strike rate of 279.
  4. If it has helped us win it wasn't pointless.
  5. I'm feeling exactly the same,I'm getting seriously worried about where we are going as a club. Whereas it was only 2-3 years ago that he made me feel excited for our future when he spoke to us at h/t on the AG pitch. I'm not suicidal over our league position,because we can come back from things like that,eventually! The owner just seems to be making mistake after mistake and not learning from them. The way we sacked a manager and appointed another one without ( it feels like) a thought was/is staggering. Surely after coming in for constant criticism on previous managerial appointments, SL should have taken a step back and looked at ALL manager options,not decide on a new one on the same flipping day!
  6. It might help me as well. Just what were you replying to? Because it was f.a. to do with you.
  7. I don't give managers of BCFC a "chance", I actually support them.
  8. Eh? I thought that all we needed was passion and a manager who shouted at the players on the pitch......................... Oh, nearly forgot, and likes the press.
  9. It was a very good interview, he was certainly peed off with the moaners. On your last point, I doubt it!
  10. The only fact that really counts, is that 40 million people were being ruled by a system that was evil and treated them as sub human. Anyone who took up arms in that situation ( after exhausting peaceful means) is a hero in mine and billions of other peoples eyes.
  11. The Church st Pretoria bombing was in direct response to murders that the SA government committed. It was in response to a South African cross-border raid into Lesotho in December 1982 which killed 42 ANC supporters and civilians, and the assassination of Ruth First, an ANC activist and wife of Joe Slovo, in Maputo, Mozambique. I'm presuming you feel it was ok for the South African apartheid government to kill innocent people on a daily basis, but the ANC were not allowed to respond? Apartheid caused the whole situation,a cruel and injustice way of treating human beings. When people are backed into a corner they will respond in any way possible. That's what happened to the coloured people of SA. Imagine if the Germans had invaded us in the 40's. Do you think our people would have just accepted it, or fought back with any means possible.
