Thursday already!!!



Flipping heck it is Thursday already I cannot believe it, the weeks are going so quickly that they are  speeding past like a high speed train! Yes it is Thursday however we need to have a recap on what was occurring last night in the T20 quarter final.

Well. well..well.the wonderful Michael Carberry sent Hampshire through to finals day with an unbeaten century, as they posted 202-3 in their 20 overs. Well Lancashire went into bat, and I tell you I flipping wish that I had been at the Rose bowl last night. Lancashire finished their innings on 201-4. Hells bells the Hampshire fans must have had their hearts in their mouths!!! If they were not in danger of stopping beating at all. That must have been some match to watch!!!

Jolly well done to Hampshire who are going to try to regain their title. so today we are giving a huge shout out for the Giles Whites boys. #COYH

Also yesterday cheating rumours were abounding with KP's name being bandied about. He took to twitter (naturally) to proclaim his innocence. Why oh why???? Why not do this through the proper channels???? Like his agent making a statement????? No if he takes to Twitter he can then wallow in the replies to his tweet knowing how much he is loved. Why would he cheat was one question that he asked. Well why would he text South African players last year???????

The Australian squad has been named for the start of the 4th test tomorrow, with Aston Agar being omitted again. Well his first test will never be beaten thats for sure!.

after Andy Flower stating yesterday that the 'boys' had not been on a full blow celebratory extravaganza after the weekends end of test, news came through that one of the boys was being jolly well badly behaved in Brighton, and he was one that was named in the squad but didn't make the team. I am not naming names as it is all out there to read however I think that 'weegate' is hideous and shows this man in his true light!
Joe Root and Tim Bresnan were caught having a crafty cigarette too! not quite as bad as urinating on bouncers but bad enough for sportsmen!!!!


Shane Warne had  commented that England players were smug and arrogant ( been reading my blog Shaney?). To which Paul Collingwood replied ( yes Paul Collingwood!). Well I personally think that the players are smug and arrogent, they are self absorbed and think that they are going to win before they even hit the field.This has been growing in recent years and makes the team look crass. They are only as good as the matches that they play well!


 Paul Collingwood wrote an article prior to his international retirement saying that he couldn't bear his children crying when he was leaving to go on tour and how hard it was to be away from his family. Put yourself in the shoes of the armed forces Paul, These men go away for months at a time never sure if they are going to return! At least you knew that you would be going home at the end of the tours!

Oh my giddy aunt!!! It is THursday and I was off on a flipping rant. well there is nothing like getting your blood boiling before heading off to super swanky Lady lainey office. Watch out Jo the Jolly

Hi LL

You know that I know nothing about cricket, but here is another gem. If Paul Collingwood expected to tour with cricket, why didn't he put off having children until later or have the balls to do his tour (crying kids or not) after all thats what he got paid for!!
Great point about the armed forces too.
