    ***Official*** Sri Lanka in England and Ireland 2014

    So, in a thread where no one has said a single thing about Senanayake's action, you bring it up. What was it Shakespeare said? Methinks he doth protest too much?

    Steve Evans and Diego Simeone. (i) Who would win in a fight? (ii) Who would you want to win in a fight?

    ***Official*** Sri Lanka in England and Ireland 2014

    Given that the commentators aren't going to bother analysing it as they don't know the first things about keeping wicket, two points worth making about Jos' work for that dismissal: (i) standing in front / to the side of the stumps rather than behind them and then using his hips and knees...

    Jayawardene's ODI average isn't much cop, is it? I'd always thought it was 40ish.

    That would require transitive logic from the selection panel. In other news, some momentum on twitter for a James Foster recall if Prior remains unfit. Would be great for the pure keepers of this world!

    No neutrals old enough to remember what Simeone did in 1998, anyway.

    Simeone ensuring that no neutrals will be shedding any tears for Atletico tonight.

    I'd quite like Ramos to put another penalty into orbit. Or Real to score a 123rd minute winner so Simeone spontaneously combusts.

    My problem is a combination of lack of height and tiny hands, which means I have no confidence claiming a high ball, let alone under any degree of pressure. Consequently any coming-for-the-ball ends poorly, so I usually end up stuck in no-man's-land wondering if I should punch or not, or just...

    That's the sort of thing I expect to see when I'm in goal.

    I think you'd get good odds on this one finishing with 22 on the pitch.

    Harry Redknapp, Football Genius. Obviously. Let's have a count-the-shots-of-Derby-fans-crying sweepstake. I'll go 12.

    ***Official*** English Domestic Season 2014

    I reckon the Sky game will get underway. I've just driven south from Nottingham and whilst it was brutally heavy rainfall, there wasn't a massive band of it and to the south it seems clear. Then to decide whether I want the Franchise or the Frenchmen to lose more.
