Cod Eye

See the PM compared herself to Goeff Boycott earlier. Pfft, May's been in power for over two years. Boycott would still be getting himself "in" if he was our Prime Minister....

For someone so tall, he never looked like he could back it up. I don't know if it was the massive, over sized pants, wank hair and bum fluff facial hair combo or the doughy, definition-less physique, but he never really looked a threat. At least the likes of Samoa Joe(or Ember Moon in the woman's game) look like they are double hard bastards...

I don't think Stokes in the answer to the No3 spot either, but if it's a choice between him and Buttler, I'll go for Stokes. I like the idea of having Buttler coming in down the order, allowing him to counter attack if the upper order fails or freeing him up to take a score from par to huge with a bollocks to the wall thrash if the top order finally does its job...

Just been reading in the press that England are pleasing ahead with making Buttler into a "specialist" No.3, and that he would have batted there in the first test if England had bowled first at Ali had bowled a shitload of overs. I'm not sure about it personally. We have already been too gung-ho with our top order batting in the last few years(how many time have we been 50-3 or worse?), so putting a player like Buttler in could be compounding the issue.

I wouldn't mind seeing how Bairstow does as an opener(especially if they keep the gloves off him). He's got the technique and concentration needed for it, it's just a question of his temperament and patience.

What do we all think they are going to do with the team for the second test? It looks like they are going to have to drop a spinner for a quickie, but they all bowled at least decent in the last match, it will be a bt of a blow for whoever is carrying the drinks. Ali was shocking with the bat, but I have not seen him bowl as well away from home as he did last time out, and Jack Leitch was a joy to watch and provided so much control it would be a loss to no have him. Rashid wasn't as good with the ball, but contributed to the first innings fight back with the bat. I wouldn't like to be the one deciding, that's for sure. Then there's Bairstow. If he's fit do we bring him back in, or does he have to wait for his chance again(and that's without getting into a discussion about giving him the gloves back!)...

I had a very similar experience when I first started having to use a walking stick to get around. A group of little bastards, all about 15 or 16 decided it was hilarious watching me struggle to walk through town and took it upon themselves to leg me up and boot me in the stomach. Worse part of it was the town was packed that day and not one person stepped in to help me. It effected me for years and after seeking help for a mental health issue I was informed I probably had PTSD from it. All I could(and still can) think is that if it happened a year earlier, or to someone else while I was fully able bodied I'd have kicked the little cunts from one side of Barnsley to the other and it highlighted just how far I had deteriorated since my diagnoses...

But that's just your opinion. To me, drug use is one of the biggest issues in society today and if I had a choice to make there is no question that I would prefer my kids to eat meat rather than shovel shit up their noses and what not.

I was about to type very similar Butch. Surley even a single animal/person that is raped/killed/exploited for the drugs would be in conflict to the vegan ideals?

I'm enjoying it. Only criticism from me is how spaced out everything is, but I assume that is the point of it(and would have been how things were in those days). Also, it's better now I've got the hang of the controls so have stopped riding at speed head first into trees...

Nash is one of the few wrestlers that I would love to go out on the piss with. Just seems like a top bloke...

It's a good cause, but there isn't a charity out there could make be buy and wear anything inspired by any Sheffield club...

Woken up at 4am this morning by my youngest. I hate it when the clocks go back...

Just had a quick bash and, while I can see it taking me a bit to get used to, I think I'm going to really enjoy it and become obsessed with 100% it like I did GTAV...

Finally managed to get disk one installed on the 4th attempt. Just hope the second disk doesn't do the same thing now. Saying 55 minute, so I might just bob an episode of Deadwood on to get in the mood...
