Yes, they are coloquially referred to as shirts......A guernsey, jersey, jumper, shirt or apparel are just many ways to describe this....

Also Guernsey is an island somewhere in the Mediterannean isn't it??? First shot to my mind during the Commonwealth Games..

Perhaps they wore "jerseys" ???

I'm not going to be the silly bald fella, stuck in the back of an old transit reviewing people's action. I want to be in the studio, making mischief at the expense of other commentators.

I'm also not doing the on-field reports at lunch or tea-time 'cos I'll miss out on a lot of cake!

Give me the pitch reports please !!! The aussies would come out on the final day needing 200 to win and find more bunches of keys, cracks like the grand canyon and other assorted "anomolies" than they know what ot do with.

What would happen if Boys drove a Renault Laguna - they don't have keys, you'd need a pretty bloody big crack to get one of those key-card thingies down!

It's just you and me on here RBLC - let's get really silly. Also, who get's the female roving reporter role on our commentary team?

Alison would be good a choice, seems symperthetic to the the underdog, Rachael may well end up getting into a fist fight with tresco, and Kirsty might well embares herself and the good name of the WAT commentary team when interviewing Mr giles. Zainub had better be studying !!! Moss, I believe is a lady and dislikes Mark Nicholas.

Decisions Decisions !!!!

Hmmm, I agree with the above, nobody would like Tresco beaten up (unless it re-aligns his eyesight) - equally, nobody would like Ashley smothered (except for Gareth Batty) - maybe Alison and Batty are the same person!
