I’m assuming it’s not ‘the’ Hibs? -

I think that's the one I was thinking of with my earlier post, I was conflating that goal and Tevez's in another game. -
I wonder whether other teams will start putting England into bat for a while now in test matches, given the four incredible and mainly nonchalant run chases we have executed under the new regime?

He needs to sort his injury issues out for sure but he's still young enough yet.

His Durham team mate Carse is another to watch out for as well.

I'd need to watch it again but I seem to recall we had a lot of possession but didn't create too many chances that night? Edit: Just seen Upside Down's reply above, which does tie in with my memory of that night. Away goals counted then as well so a 1-0 defeat was a very poor result really. -

Quite right Tyrone, there was a litany of bad/bent decisions against us whenever we played them. But this does remind me of quite a funny story. I had a couple of mates up visiting us in Scotland one weekend and Rovers v Utd was the teatime live Sky game. This was the game when (I think) Tevez scored an equalizer at the Darwen End in what felt like the 9th minute of 5 added on, from an offside position, with his fucking arm. Anyway we watched it in a pub in Glasgow, which was jam-packed as one of the old Firm had been at home that day, and Alex Ferguson's big ugly face popped up on the screen for his post match interview. My mate couldn't contain himself any longer. "You can fuck off an' all you Scotch c*nt" he screamed, than suddenly remembered where he was when the whole pub fell into a stunned silence. Thankfully the Glaswegian lads saw the funny side of it and being football fans themselves realised how brassed off we would have been. -
In the late 80s I got a ticket via a Rovers player friend for the ‘posh seats’ at Molyneux for a drab 0-0 draw against Wolves. I was sat next to a long haired bloke with a big sheepskin coat on and we chatted away quite the thing during the first half about the game and Wolves and Rovers’ respective histories. He certainly knew his footie and spoke very enthusiastically about his club. Anyway, after I’d gone for a piss at half time I returned to my seat just in time to see this bloke doing the half time raffle draw on the pitch. It was Robert Plant. When he came back to his seat I said “I’m so sorry mate, I didn’t realise who you were, I’ve never really been into Led Zep to be honest”. “No worries me duck” he said “It was nice just to talk about football for a change”. What a great guy and I have checked out his music since that day and actually do like some of it ✊🏻

Two or three crackers in a row there. This one was written by Elvis Costello specifically for Tracie Young: Tracie - I Love You When You Sleep -
Anything can happen in T20 though, a good ten or fifteen minutes by anybody can win you the game. I fancy Tim David and Crofty to smack a few quick runs tonight. The captain is due a score as well.
-
His technique was excellent. Nothing flashy, protected his wicket and built a score. Exactly what an opener should do.
-
He scored two tons against Lancs in the opening game of the season. Almost carried his bat through both innings (think he was the 9th man out in the second innings)
-
Apparently sustained heavy drinking over a number of years can also cause it.
-
By the time he was diagnosed he was riddled with it unfortunately. He was a tough cookie, he turned up at a charity dinner in a wheelchair just a few days ago.
-
The ball was bowled there deliberately to tempt him into the drive. And once again it worked. How many tests has he failed in now? Hardly a knee jerk reaction. I actually thought his county team mate Ben Compton looked a decent bet as an opener as well. He might be worth a try.

How’s your star opener getting on Chaddy? Who would have thought he’d nick off to slip while attempting a drive eh? The lad has to be dropped and quickly.
-
He ignored symptoms for too long, sadly. I played cricket and football with and against Andy as a youth. RIP
