Nogbad the Bad Posted September 7, 2005 Report Share Posted September 7, 2005 Not enough it seems.Surely I'm not the only one who feels the allure of Ashton Gate has dwindled recently ← Course it has, but if City were home on Saturday i'd be there without a doubt. I like cricket but i can't suddenly pretend to be a huge fan just because England are doing well. I'll watch the last few hours of the Test if possible, as per usual. The rest is fascinating if you've got the time, but it's the denoument that counts. Missing City at home to watch the afternoon of the 3rd day, no chance. Anyway, this is England we're talking about and as in other sports you just know we'll cock it up when it seems it should be in the bag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tinman-is-god Posted September 7, 2005 Report Share Posted September 7, 2005 shut up you traitorcity fan???not even a football fan???obviously ##### isnt very much He is a 'traitor' because he wants to watch the Ashes instead of City? It is his choice, and i am sure that he is a City fan, it is just his CHOICE to watch the Ashes ahead of City. OK, so i would watch City every time, but i wouldn't ever have a go at someone for wanting to watch the cricket.If he wants to watch England, i can't see why anyone can have a problem with it, like i said, whats it got to do with you anyway?
