Cricket Web: All-Time Legend
Those of you who have been around here a while will doubtless recall that in days gone by, besides posting on the forum, I used to regularly write and post features on the front page normally, but not always, profiles of cricketers I found interesting.

This largely stopped around five years ago, partly because I started to run out of subjects that I wanted to write about, and partly because laziness set in and I decided that I preferred reading other people's writing to producing my own.

I also lost a lot of enthusiasm because the computer on which I wrote all the features died and, being a total ****wit I hadn't backed it up and lost a lot that were all but finished.

This morning I decided the old computer had to go as part of my efforts to declutter and, plugging the thing in, lo and behold the damned thing came to life. It's still clearly very sick, but I did manage to email myself all the finished work that was on it.

So, whilst I have no inclination to start writing the things again, once I've read through them and tidied up where necessary you can expect new features on the following subjects:-

Andrew Sandham
Barry Knight
Tiger O'Reilly
Keith Fletcher
Dickie Bird
Alvin Kallicharran
Bob Wyatt
Arthur Morris
Brian Lara
Cyril Washbrook
Phil Mead
Australian fast bowling between Gregory/McDonald and Lindwall/Miller
Frank Foster
Maurice Tate
Garth McKenzie
Tich Freeman

.... and no I really didn't back that much work up - what a **** eh?
