    What the Citeh players will have if we play as badly as we have in recent weeks?

    Rob Key is getting into major problems pronouncing Fakhar Zaman.

    Two quick wickets make England favourites.

    I don’t like Rob Key much. But he’s better than Ian Ward.

    Not sure why Sky have gone for B list England players in more recent times.

    Possibly this post will get tidied too? Stick to the cricket thread, lads?

    I would be very interested to hear SEJ's response about Der Färager saying that he"...knows..." him. Presumably it's not in the biblical sense.

    You’re overlooking the gorgeous Isha Guha. Buckinghamian, too.

    All we trying to do here is provide a bulwark against far right insurgence.

    And, in this thread, that bulwark is cricket chat.

    Hitler or Hildreth?

    Neither picked for England.

    They will be forever yoked together as if in one of Dante’s lesser bolgias.

    Mentioning half' n' half (scarves) made me smile. It reminded me of yesterday morning coming across one of those football parasites who sell these things in the High Street near the Intu. He had set up his stall of yellow and black checked flags, fake Watford Cup Final scarves and shirts. What made me chuckle inside was that that our manager's name was spelt 'Garcia'. I was tempted to point this out but thought that no self-respecting WFC fan will surely part with money and wear this utter tat at Wembley.

    Have you seen some of our fans?

    There’s some on here who still call him Garcia.

    I'm pretty sure our defence is, at least in part.

    A Garcia scarf is a collector’s item.

    Our shortest lived coach.

    For 2 whole weeks.

    I was woken up at 5am this morning by a hornet buzzing around my bedroom. I haven't yet decided what kind of omen this is.

    Basically, it's win or goodbye to Javi for me. Fail to lift some silverware and he can do one. Let's get ab Italian in.

    6-0 is the record defeat in an FA cup final. Lets hope we don't steal this from Derby.

    On today's performance alone, that's very possible.

    I suppose the question now is who misses out ?

    Kiko who had a stinker against WHU or Janmaat, who can play narrower as a third CB
    Kabasele or Mapps
    Grey, Pereyra, Deulofeu or Hughes

    For me I would have Janmaat, Kabasele and Grey over Kiko, Mapps and Peyrera
    We need workers and grafters as much as technicality

    Kabasele had a stinker too today. It’s a real shame having reached this point we’re wondering who can replace the duff options rather than thinking players are pushing for a start.

    Workers all the way.

    Citeh win 60% of their games on reputation.

    Get at them & they really don’t like it. Lesta did a good job, as did Brighton for 25 mins.
