Gloucester Saint

Not Hants as such but this is causing a stink locally! https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/cricket/articles/ckd7q9l0n7dyo I can understand why though. Even though I was born and grew up in Southampton, would I want Hampshire Hawks becoming the Southampton Hawks? No. East Hants supporters would really hate it, they’re cross about the lack of games at the Services ground down there as it is. Follow up meeting in Cheltenham coming up, should be a lively one!

Even a high class KC like Imran Khan had no chance with that appeal. His mother withdrew her appeal this morning apparently so even she could see the way the wind was blowing. Was always going to be increased and lo and behold it has. Should have got on with his sentence and kept his little rat gob shut. However much he ‘reforms’, I never want to see him enjoy a day’s discount on the 25 years, minus only what he has served already.

Quit Reform. There’s a surprise. Tried to join Labour 😂https://www.markpack.org.uk/175199/owain-clatworthy/

Codi Yusuf and especially Brett Hampton should be a non-existent bar to get over. Got spoiled by Malcolm Marshall, Shane Warne, Abbas and even Heath Streak was miles better than them. Two white ball signings were poor too. Tristan Stubbs got dropped by SA quite quickly and looked a poor batsman, Cartwright was a bit better but not the regular game changer he ought to be. I just watched that brilliant SA-Aus series - Marco Jansen and especially Rabada are staggeringly good. Rabada is a proper great IMO. If Nortje gets fit for England, our top order is in for a severe test! Yusuf must be miles down their pecking order. Mulder is only stiff medium but very effective, swings it nicely and like Jansen can bat well too.

I bet Ossie supports the study of German Literature - as long as it includes Mein Kampf as a core text. Probably the only text. As one of the Nazi saluting blokes said on YouTube from Portsmouth Patriots, it blows your mind when you read in English.

They’ve taken it down then! Yep, they have, just checked. Was the infamous Mark Ronson video https://www.nme.com/news/music/daily-gossip-275-1311995

Probably unrelated to the mystery injunction

Senate races lost in Kansas, Ohio, the Carolina’s and Texas will sting though. Walloped in Congress but the Senate was seen as a tall order don’t forget yet won it with fair degree of comfort. Florida is a very hard right state, but can see that flipping at the next Presudential race. Never has a political party deserved a good kicking like the GOP has and still does for rolling over for that fat Orange fascist. He can veto but touché on all his appointments and wars. It’ll hopefully start the rollback of the damage which will take decades reputationally. The economic performance is terrible but what’s really done him in - to the point even he can’t contest the results - is Kushner and the Mad Bens with their loony war. The background stench of Epstein still lingers.

We were like the first half tonight but all game, miles better second half tonight.

That Diakite has had a very good game.

Thomas Waddingham is quite a posh sounding name for one of theirs.

Even Gordon Smith would have scored that one in 1983.

Stewart hit the bar seconds earlier at the other end.
