 we won! (with blackwell hitting a massive six) well done lads, bowled well...strauss was the main man batting (retired hurt due to dehydration) and anderson and mahmood (which shocked me) did very well with the ball... |

batting still not good enough, reliant on one innings. prior and solanki we need to find someone else now. still at least it's not a whitewash.
interestingly india had 5 singhs on the field at one stage.

Indoor cricket is the way forward. You have to use plastic bats, a tennis ball and if you hit it you have to run. You can catch it off the walls/ceilings one handed using the 'one bounce one hand' rule!

You can catch it off the walls/ceilings one handed using the 'one bounce one hand' rule! It's certainly the way forward up your way. I'd imagine it's the only way to get through a days play without a rain interruption up there. |

It concerns me slightly the number of people with links to the Pox on here. Half the forum seem to be from O'shire or live there now. Why is that? |

Because the Town of Swindon itself is absolutely woeful at supporting its own football team. :disapprove: Half our fans originally come from outside the town. Havnt you figured that out yet? |

Can't argue with that, unfortunately it's so true.  |

I was born in Swindon and my father's side of the family took me to see Swindon so they are in my blood.
If I am honest, I am glad I have never lived in Swindon as it is a tad on the shit side. (no offence to those of you that live there!)
