How about a bet here then.

Bees v. Sandy in the GF.

Any stipulations for the losing team?

(i.e. I will not say anything good about Jeff White)
Sandy will win easily, whats the wager then? you going the weibeeians?

Sandy will win easy?

I don't reckon you blokes have got enough to stop us.

If Podsiadly hits some form, and maybe some of the WB listed players play well (e.g. Rawlings who has been in some stellar form).

Was he? you wouldnt know it from how he played this year for Sandy, hopefully he'll get more of a go with the Dees next year

Can you blame them? recent history certainly pointed towards an Aussie win, but England just outplayed us for the 2nd and 5th tests and won the series

Well I was being ironic, but I think he's kinda earned it anyway after today.

So my avatar is now a v young & slightly gormless looking KP from back in 2000 when he was playing for Warwickshire 2nds (really!). 92* on debut & they passed on him! SA not the only team to let him slip thru their grasp.... :D
Everyteam makes a howler or two. Cofidis sacked Lance Armstrong when he was sick and look what he has done, Hussain choosing to bowl first at the Gabba, the captain of the UAE team facing Allan Donald in the 96 WC without a helmet (he got decked) when AD was at his the peak of his powers.

Fair point, I knew England could win the Ashes if they played to their potential and matched and beat them in all areas and I think somewhere I might have been one of the few to tip an England win (I can't be 100% sure and I can't be bothered to see if this is the case).

People are looking at me very strangely in the office now - this thread is absolutely hilarious and I just keep bursting out laughing. Great forfeits, guys, and kudos to everyone taking them in great spirit.

Cricket is indeed a wonderful sport, and cricket supporters are the salt of the earth. Well done.

That's crying out for a 'no change there then'

I reckon its his hair.. Which is kind of ironic, as my hair wasn't all that dissimilar to KP's (before he played for England)

What`s up with your sig LE?
What do you mean?

It's just a little snippet of an email someone sent me some time ago - I thought I'd stick it in there because someone asked the other day whether there are any 'proper' cricketers who are members of this site or who just pop in from time to time for a look and a lurk.

As the message says, "You'd be surprised".

Cricket Web and you, the fans who make up Cricket Web is fast becoming recognised as a bastion of the game (perhaps I didn't hear that bit right). Now if only a few more cricketers could read.....

( :D )

Ah, that's 'up' from a few days ago. I has a chimneysweep then, remember?

Funnily enough, with me continually kidding you on about going fishing (for a bloater when the booert comes in) when it gets a bit tense, yesterday afternoon I HAD to leave the office, walked all the way down towards the end of the Liffey and there was a bloke there fishing. I watched him for about 20 minutes before I plucked up courage to go back.

He didn't catch anything. Reminded me of Geraint Jones.

By then, KP was putting Brett into the next county.

See? It really does work.
