Sorry den but it doesn't excuse poor shot selection, you'll not get away with it in Australia where bags of runs are required to win, happens far to often for my liking.

Bairstow even worse, what the hell was that shot with the game in the balance. Boycott just said "More brains in a pork pie" We've lost the ability to wait for the bad balls. we've lost the ability to block up an end, its probably the T20 era, which is fantastic but doesn't help produce players who have the brains, temperament and ability to play test match innings.

Bizarre shot by Stokes, not whats required with our backs to the wall, although the Windies don't look interested which is equally as bizarre.

Flintoff spoiling the T20 cricket again with his stupid remarks on commentary. "Singles are no good for Somerset" They're sat on 71-2 with 10 overs to go, singles are fine...

The wild Rover - No Ney Never

You can only take on the team thats put in front on you Baz, looked competitive at 39-2 70,000 tickets sold for this test I heard, so its here to stay, but a while until we see another due to scheduling I believe.

Great to see one of the smaller clubs sticking it up the big boys

Really enjoying the cricket today, a breath of fresh air to be watching cricket on home soil well into the evening, although the W indies are pretty poor. Just witnessed the Windies coach almost have a heart attack, got Root out with seam bowling, then they declined the new ball and played 2 spinners! at a time when the new ball is supposed to be at its most dangerous playing seam! The coach was having kittens

T-Rex - Get it on

Flintoff turning the T20 coverage into a lads locker room, he should stick to pantomime and leave the comedy to Bumble.

Its called having a difference of opinion sparks, debate, the sort of thing that keeps places like Brfcs going, you should try it On Radio Rovers, I hated it, slagged it off all the time, but I never wanted the first football radio station in the UK to be shut down. Its just another example of an incompetent disgusting regime ruining this once proud football club. Maybe a certain engineering firm can sponsor it next season for grand sum of a bag of washers and play its own adds 24/7? what an idea, I should work in marketing!

Bob Dylan - I want you

The forecast isn't good den, almost sold out for first few days, really captured the imagination, let's hope the rain stays away. Shouldn't need long to beat the Windies.

Bob Dylan - Don't think twice, it's all right

Bob Dylan - I believe in you

Tremendous that tonight despite the result, hats off to Bresnan for that last over even though the game was won, and what a catch as K-Hod mentions above, outstanding. Day night test next week, first one in this country so looking forward to that.

Are you sure I'm already pacing round the front room, unable to eat properly and the games weeks away.

The Beatles - A Day in the life

I wonder if we can pick a few off as they get off the coaches?

Think I might come up and brick the burnley coaches The rest is up to you lot.

Easy road to the third round.

Egg cup eh? Have a word with yourself man.

Kiss - Detroit Rock City

I thought Ashley Ward gave 110% every game, you can't ask more than that. The fact he was useless shouldn't come into it, if the manager picks him and he gives his all thats all you can ask. That penalty at The Valley was a stonewaller

Tax dodgers.
