Our new manager-to-be Chris Powell and I on the train back from Manchester. Although I edited myself out, as you don’t need me spoiling things.

years young today. And 50 years until a telegram from King William V. More importantly it’ll be the first beers since lockdown began.. just trying to hold off until noon.. 🥳
Well… we have managed a friendly at Bishop’s Stortford today. And looked good as well, a 4-1 win with a hat-trick from Jack Wood and Powell with the other.

Fabulous day in

, what a knock from Dan Lawrence. Total chaos towards the end, lost track of how many sixes ended up in the park, great day

Wow. Outrageous display of football at Roots Hall. Had Oldham on the run the whole game. That goal from Mooney..
Threadbare squad, fans boycotting, one swallow does not make a summer but we can enjoy that 💃

Maidstone, York, Barnet. Three away wins in a week. All straightforward. Weird as an

fan after about 4 years of shite.
Get the beers in.
I won’t be watching or have a single iota of interest in The Hundred, even if it is the only cricket played this year or any other year. That thing can live or die on whether it gets its target audience or not.
A rare test away win requires some celebration, so straight back to the beach bar. It’s no way for Herath to end his test career, but a fine servant and well played Sir 👋

In honour of test cricket returning to Pakistan for the first time in ten years, I’ve dug out some memories of England’s last test in Pakistan (Nov 2005, Lahore).

It was great to be able to visit top buddy Crumpie in hospital this afternoon for a chat and see the small tentative steps being taken towards a recovery. A long road ahead and we all wish him the very best x

Both my parents have had a jab at Basildon Hospital this morning, which one and how effective it is I don’t know. It’s getting hard to keep up with all the jab news output..

Memories of the Pakistan v England test in Lahore in Dec ‘05 when I got excited to find Cook’s name under the scoreboard - his test debut was still a few months away.
The real big footy news of the night is promotion to
@IsthmianLeague
for Basildon Utd, a truly superb effort. A late winner, reward for a long hard season. Over 300 in to see it.
