*Official* Fourth Test (Old Trafford, Manchester) 19-23 July

[GIMH]

Hello Peter Reid there . An ex manager of my team Sunderland and during his time we had our best team in the last 50 years

that grey haired bloke they just zoomed in on

the fans made a song called Cheer up Peter Reid and it got into the official, charts in the U.K.

based on an old monkees tune, Daydream Believer

Had a terrible record at Prenton park though. Defeats for Sunderland in 95-96, 97-98 (Cup), 98-99, 99-00 (Cup) with just one win.

You were captained by TRFC alumni, who played football with my kid brother and went to the same school as me. That’s the only reason you won

 

[chris.hinton]

West Bromwich Albion is my team Btw

I remember an unkind Newcastle song claiming he had Simian qualities

 

[ashley bach]

Lol at comparing McGrath’s batting to anyone’s other than Chris Martin

McGrath a true genius with bat in hand when compared to Cristopher.

It’s true which newcastle fans couldn’t accept when Sunderland fans laughed about it

I’ve seen some reaches but that’s up there .

McGrath, Mullally, Chris Martin and Courtney Walsh would have been one heck of a tail.

Now that a club , I’ve always admired over the decades . There’s a fan of them who goes on a Sunderland fan forum but he is greeted as one of our lads

calls himself Boinger and uses a Rick mayll avatar. Can you remember Cyrille Regis scoring a goal of the season? That lad can be seen in a white jumper behind the goal the ball went like a rocket into

Monty vs Mullally is an interesting debate as our worst tailender. Devon Malcolm & Tuffers up there as well.

 

[91Jmay]

Good this from Aus tbf, watchful. Still an excellent pitch most of time. Just occasional lifter/one that stays low.

Bob Willis had a technique unmatched as an 11

 

[Silver Silva]

100 overs bowled in this series for Anderson , only 4 wickets ..Who would have thought that at the start.

 

[WICFan]

Anderson getting close to getting Khawaja's wicket.

 

[CartyDurham]

Said earlier I thought this pitch would spin and have uneven bounce but I didn’t think Moeen would be on this early
