Rishworthian 166 Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 In the event of a win today I might start wondering if what seemed impossible or maybe just unlikely a few weeks ago is actually possible. I will not be there as I went to go in the home end a while ago and they wanted to search me. it's a no thanks from me and a refusal to enter if they persue that policy. They did not but it is not acceptable to me at any time. I'm happy to open my hand bag and show the contents of my pockets but "keep your hands off me" is always the way I go ( it was Man City not the Boro incidentally) I might not go to too many games but so be it I'm hoping Payero comes on as a second half sub and scores the winner Link to post Share on other sites

If I have done Mr Zanzibar a disservice I do apologise! I know TJ usually posts negative predictions, but I was fairly certain Denzel did too...at least before he started doing matchday threads...

Uwe 3,543 Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Big game today. Win would be fantastic, a draw would be great. But as long as the performance is still going on in the right direction I’ll be happy. Ref the Ashes I’ve never liked cricket. Any sport that takes 5 days to end in a draw can’t really be a sport. Even cricket people know it’s rubbish. That’s why to make it more interesting they introduced, 1 day, 20/20 etc.. So it’s perfectly reasonable to say to make cricket better the answer is… less cricket 🤷♂️ 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Draws don't actually happen that often, unless the teams are very evenly matched, or the ground staff have prepared flat batting tracks that give no help to bowlers (or rain stops play). Anyway, Test cricket is a sport for intellectuals, who can appreciate the subtleties, strategic and tactical battles on the pitch and doing your bit to create a record-breaking beer snake... 😜 Actually the atmosphere can be as good as any football match...memories of happier times...

It soured the matchday experience and I never went back. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I hope it's Stoj rather than Lumley though. Link to post Share on other sites
Weasel 965 Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 I'd be so so happy if Stoj gets a chance, feel like he's been treated pretty badly since he joined us. It'll definitely be Lumley though. Link to post Share on other sites
