Bumble is a class apart, and I love him to bits. He showede a piece of film this morning betwen overs, of his journey to work. Hilarious!

Also, when a big six gets hit towards the end of a Twenty20 game - "oooh hello! Start the car!"

What a man!

Mind you, don't think I'll ever forgive him his outburst in Zim - that was a bit of a faux pas to say the least.

Come on Richie - don't you remember the whole 'we flippin' murdered them' explosion when we tied the test out there?


FYI - a car is just like a Whippet with wheels.

Oh come on, get over it. The guy used a poor phrase and he's still getting hammered for it? Even though he has apologised?

Yeah, your probably right - it was no biggy, just a bit of poor judgement at the time.

I geddit - a bit like Alan Hansons unfortunate phrase about a columbian defenders mistake - "the defender wants shootin' for that"

They drive like crazy in Multan apparently - but then again, that's much the case every where in this country! Every one is in perpeptual hurry.

The one thing you will get with Boycott is the truth, only pronlem for some supporters he lives in the past.

Also he is a realist, he knows that England have not beaten Pakistan yet, he fears that England will come out slogging, against a decent bowling attack.

That's also known as being a tragic skeptic. It's amazing that a man that's gone through as much as he has still shows so little positiveness in most of his thoughts. There was a time when I admired Boycott, you always tend to have respect for people who battle out from sickness, like he did, (his throat cancer) but sadly that's not changed the way he looks at his cricket.
