Title: Is it out? Beefy decides Post by: larwood on Friday, May 5, 2006, 08:02:43 http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/cricket/4975832.stm
Of course it won't be up to Beefy,be good if it was though :wink: Personally i'm not sure about this,will LBW's be questioned?Catches will be i'm sure,but that was a problem before,sometimes because T.V is a two dimension thing you aren't able to tell if the ball has been caught clearly or not.And what about the Umpires?I think on the whole they do a great job,they make some mistakes but they get it right mostly.I think the ICC are fucking around with our wonderful game again,a la the subs rule :roll: Title: Is it out?

Leave the fucking Sports alone. Title: Is it out? Beefy decides Post by: Spencer_White on Friday, May 5, 2006, 17:18:32 The standard of umpiring has got much better in recent years in my opinion.
Far too much meddling in all forms and levels of the game now. Title: Is it out?

Its a waste of time :-))( Title: Is it out?
