    **Official** English Football Season 2024/25

    In which man from far side of the world lectures English people who have been to games about their own culture. It's nothing to do with emotions and everything to do with tribalism. Get a grip.

    Virat Kohli Retires from Test Cricket

    When I went to see England play India at Edgbaston 2018 pretty much everyone there understood it was Kohli or bust. At that time there was such daylight between him and the next best on either team. Absurd player.

    Lions tour 2025

    The names are in, the blazers printed, the stuffed lion sewed by a mysterious witch of the moorlands, and so on. Rumours that Maro Itoje was announced as captain beneath a pillar of white smoke remain uncomfirmed. Forwards: Tadhg Beirne (Munster Rugby/Ireland) Ollie Chessum (Leicester...

    Cricket stuff that doesn't deserve its own thread

    The kid on the left who's sick of the whole thing always gets me

    Umpiring stuff

    Yeah, I'd call that a coping strategy :p It startled me how useless I was without one.

    Umpiring stuff

    I'm a qualified umpire, stopped regularly doing it after I moved cities though. My principle experience is being alright with most of the requirements but needing serious coping strategies for counting the number of balls in an over.

    **Official** English Football Season 2024/25

    Palace are 2nd in the table if you count from after Boxing Day (Ipswich are highlighted because I got this gizmo from their fan boards)

    That's amazing. The run outs really make it

    Official Rugby Thread

    I think the part where our replacement prop one-handed dived over the line to dcore the 8th try was the point where I felt that the piss had been irrevocably taken

    Don bradman in an alternate timeline

    Also, did the uber-Bradman of this universe overturn the English series victories in 1928-9 and 1932-33, or is this a universe where the likes of Hammond and Sutcliffe also received a bionic super serum and the timeless tests of the era simply lasted for weeks?

    Don bradman in an alternate timeline

    I have questions about the 1930 season which featured 18+ test matches on presumably a tour of England. 1) Did every county host one Test match each, or did the toffs at Lords hog half a dozen to themselves? 2) How many bowlers did England pick over the whole series? (you can round to the...
