spot the aussi supporter

botham is not on my christmas card list.

but, i have to say he was quite funny today playing 'spot the aussi supporter'.

truth was that there were very few at the ground - i know its the last day and all, but still: are they really that fair weather?

i'm not even going to bother to call them cunts - they must know that this is shameful, and each must know they are cunts.

Not/What

Jimmy/Mrs. Cricket

free cricket

google free cricket - lots of people stream their tv live: i was a little disconcerted when the guy, who's tv i was watching - virtually - switched to some Islamism fundamentalist site. luckily, his mate (i presume) acted fast, saying: 'i was fucking watching that!'. and cricket was resumed.

i'm watching vipstand at the moment.

best wishes to hafiz.

atherton and holding have basically accused the australain nation of cheating. when gatting's lot won over there apparently they did not get a single lbw go their way. when the international panel was appointed, holding emailed chapple, writing: 'now the west indies won't have to be twice as good as aus to win down under'.

in light of this: the cunt award goes out to all australians involved in cricket. fucking cheating cunts.

BATTLE FEVER

Bring It ON, fuckers! Or, at the very least, drop it at the servants entrance and my man will bring it on later.


Don't know about you bunch but, suddenly, I'm beginning to get a bit giddy.

Despite the fact that I don't have Sky. Despite the fact that I'll only see edited highlights a full 15 hours after I've read about them. Despite the fact that I'll be at work throughout. Despite the fact that Hafiz is recovering from serious heart surgery (yes, sorry about that - couldn't think of a more appropriate way to broach that subject). Despite all these things and, probably, more...

I have got the BATTLE FEVER.

If we park the question of whether this is quite funny or fucking embarrasing, I think that Bresnan wins for effort, but lacks style.

Ashes: Kevin Pietersen ready for Xavier Doherty test

this is the headline from bbc.

apparently, xavier (what sort of funking name is that?) will ask kp three questions - the 'test - after which, he will grant him one wish.

the questions:

1) does kp think that if watson grew a mustache he wouldn't be quite so punchable?
2) how can one make the ball spin? apparently warne won't tell anyone in cricket australia how he did it.
3) what's your favorite lunchtime sandwich: egg & cress or Boerewors?

if kp passes this test, he apparently going to wish to have his form back.

(i encourage fellows of 'Fetch!' to offer their own answers.)

phil hughes - likeable but rubbish...

Quality technique from Phil Hughes. Pick him please....

According to Scyld Berry, Callum Ferguson has no technique either

Australia A

I like the Aussie old guard implying that the new guard are a bunch of losers, and intimating that this is part of a wider decline of Australian culture. Let's hope they're right.

Anyway, they've been banging on about Ferguson - bowled fatty bresnan; kawaja - bowled the irrepressible Shazad (actually, he must be very annoying in the dressing room). So, they'll have to go with Hussey and North.

Are they England c.1996 in disguise?

back

Given the ashes are coming up, we do need spit some bile.

I went with Kurt to 'Fellini's Satyricon vs Sun Arun' in the Arnolfini last night. This involved an edited version of an extraordinary and confusing Fellini film set in Ancient Rome with some LA psychedelic 'noise merchants' standing in front providing an extremely loud musical soundtrack. It was extremely odd and quite good in a way - apparently this is what Kurtos is into these days.

My overriding memory of the event, however, was that the main actor in the film looked very much like a young Bob Willis.
