Wouldn't know, my game hasn't started yet and Battrick won't let me look at any other games either...

Maybe people have the batsmen on orders that are too aggressive or something.
My batsmen were all normal or defensive (apart from Kilkenny [attacking], who failed, and Canning [very attacking], whose 46 came off about 100 balls), and I was all out for 173.

What a performance by my boys so far:

End of Over 68: 326-2, runrate=4.79, lead by 278 runs
(sinnakone 48-10)
Jayawickreme 16-0-80-0
Ellis* 79 (89 balls)
Nurse 166 (209 balls)

Last Wicket: Ferrier b. Dias 50 (FOW: 193/2)

8 more runs and Nurse gets the highest ever score by a Jets batsmen. It hard to drop this guy from the opening position for Clayton when he puts in performances like this.

Just bought a 17 year old for 41k, with absolutely no bidding war, due to the slowness. Mediocre stamina, competent/woeful bat, competent/worthless bowl. Given his wage of over 800, he should be close in at least one of those disciplines; will get one to pop to respectable, then sell him on for a nice profit. He's not appearing in my squad ATM though...

They might well do but Sriram appears to be into the third innings of match on the first day! :wacko:
My game is in the same boat, scores of 128 & 90 in the 1st innings, with opposition 2-18 in their second... can't see the game getting past tea tomorow TBH :blink:

"The game is underway. We shall be joining our commentators shortly for ball-by-ball commentary."

Is this not happening to anyone else in the UK? Scaly? Ausie? Dave?

Now my planned distraction for the day has gone breasts-up, I'm left to dwell upon all the things which FC was supposed to be blocking out!

1. The power-steering hydraulics on our car are clunking alarmingly, causing me an acute stabbing pain in the hip! The nice people at the Saab dealership assure me that my call is indeed very important to them - However apparently not important enough to actually ****ing answer it!
2. I've got "Hotdog, jumping frog, Albuquerque!" looping over and over and over in my head, and I want to lobotomise myself with the letter-opener!
3. I've sent a work-experience girl out to get pictures and interviews from The Junior Ryder Cup at the Celtic Manner, partly so I could have watched my FC game if it had have been working, and partly because work-experience girls just ain't as much fun once you're married.

If this carries on I'm going to have to do some work! Later, Trev

Not sure if it's happening in the UK, but it happened in some of the leagues in Australia; guess I was lucky that I got to see every ball of my game, thanks to the fact that I had no exams today. But I'm assuming Allan would be logging on fairly soon, so hopefully this'll all get sorted, and you can get back to not working :p

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Doesn't really matter right now though.

Lunch is over now. ;) Think it's 40 minutes, that's what real cricket is anyway.

On a side note, anyone in England with games with IDs below 727470 might have to wait a fair while for their results.

I think it was 20 minutes or something

Also i didn't get a major PFL hit today with only Nurse and Priyantha dropping to energetic. The match should finish tommorow so they will recover in time for my OD match i hope.

Ausie! I stuck up for you the other day, so why are you besmirching my character in such a defamatory and grossly unfair and untrue manner?

I am most certainly not an Englishman!!! If required, I can provide genealogical data to verify that I am Welsh, going back at least four generations on both sides. I do have some Belgian ancestry - And whilst being descended from a country famous for very little else apart from beer and child abuse is nothing whatsoever of which to be proud - It is a long way from being English!

Retract or my lawyers will be in touch! And next time Mark has a pop, you're on your own Sunshine:-) Might have guessed that there's still no action in my match!

Later, Trev
