lengthy German word for that sinking sensation when, at lunch with a friend, you see that your friend has ordered a much better lunch than you did.

'I remember swapping jerseys with Franco Baresi. What was depressing was that he got a sweat-soaked Scotland number nine while the Italy number six I got in return was not only bone-dry but still smelling of his cologne.' - Scotland striker Ally McCoist, March 1996.

doesn't matter how good the players are if nobody cares about the result. the same people hitting boundaries in different shirts around the world is not why people like cricket

Ben Duckett tells @cricinfo he has been "so surprised" by empty seats at the Hundred this year: "You look at every side, and it's just world-class opponents. I'm so surprised that the crowds have been what they have." espncricinfo.com/story/ben-duck…

There is no such thing as a ‘senior Reform UK source’. They’re not a ‘source’, they’re either a politician or their spin doctor. Cloaking this nonsense in the language of investigative journalism is an insult to everyone. They should be named or told to shut the fuck up.
Farrukh@implausibleblog

Surreal, Newsnight interrupts live TV to report a Reform UK source commenting on the Zack Polanski interview Zack Polanski responds Newsnight then read out a comment from another Reform UK source Newsnight then read out a message from Nigel Farage on social care Then a few minutes later Newsnight read out the rest of Nigel Farage's message, again criticising social care

@JDtalking1 @InnoBystander Australia is a country with 6 major population centres and there are 8 BBL sides. It’s great that you have a franchise to take your kids to, but your argument is a bit like saying “I don’t know why everyone is complaining about homelessness, my house is brilliant”

@InnoBystander went to some blast when at University and it was fun but it did get a bit lairy at times. I think the 100 could be like the BBL families having fun (mums and dads can still have a drink) but its little less tribalistic? Not sure but I'll keep taking the kids while they want to go

To be fair, a huge majority of cricket watchers in this country are the wealthier (often retired) male of a certain age.... #TheHundred

@JDtalking1 @poshea84 Bio says North West England, so I assume for you “the Hundred” just means that Lancashire turns into whatever the Manchester franchise is called at any given time. Imagine if the only cricket going on within 90 mins in the school holidays was Lancs 2nds, with no media coverage

@poshea84 What's the objection then? I genuinely dont have a clue. As I said it was an anecdotal opinion solely based on messages ive read. So whats the issue?

That Jürgen Klopp press conference is what happens when someone knows their worth and understands how much their employer needs them.

@sdodyer @GeorgeDobell1 Perhaps, but Northants lost Duckett, Gay, Swann, Panesar, Gleason, Willey through poaching by TMG counties, not just for the latter stages of tournaments, but permanently, all whilst winning the tournament 3 times and being runner up twice. Has this happened to Surrey even once ?

@GeorgeDobell1 Just a shame that Surrey struggle in the late stages of the comp due to international call ups and yes I know they have funds to bring players in but losing the likes of Curran, Jacks, Smith, Overton and Jordan (in earlier years) has proven insurmountable.

The more I look at the stats - and I'll do more on this in due course - the more it seems a miracle that Northants won the Blast. For example, 70% of their income comes from ECB distribution. No club is more reliant upon that source of income. For Surrey that figure is 8%.

@GeorgeDobell1 Hopefully still see the likes of Somerset and Northants at Blast Finals.
