I love how GMac openly admits he softened his accent for interviews in the US and kinda can't help it anymore. He knows that everyone takes the p out of it and laughs with them.

Spare a thought for the Mali womens T20 team who were recently bowled out for 6 in a match against Rwanda (Kwibuka tournament), 5 of runs were extras and they lasted 9 overs, Rwanda won by 10 wickets after scoring 0/8 off 4 balls.
Owners come and go but Leeds United will be there forever, for the fans - keep Marching on Together.

There was a lot of coverage on the local news about it last night NW, they interviewed a few spectators but I didn’t recognise you.NottinghamWhite wrote:What a glorious place to watch cricket.

Made a slight error of judgement, woke up Wednesday & it was raining heavily so came home. Yesterday I had a trip down to Kidderminster to see Worcestershire take on Sussex this became my 20th first class ground.Barlow Boy wrote:

Re: The Cricket Thread
NW, are there 30 more grounds in the country, I assume you mean first class grounds? I once played in a cricket friendly on (I think) the Yorkshire Penny Bank ground. The word at the time was, that the groundsman was the brother of the Headingley groundsman. They reckoned that the YPB pitch was better than Headingley. It was exceedingly good.
I once played against Don Revie.
