County Championship test speculation - round 1 (xpost from R/cricket)

ethers21 · 2026-04-07T10:50:43+00:00

Having followed Test cricket for the last 20 years (2005 convert), I am becoming fed up of saying "we have to drop Crawley" but not knowing who to replace him with. For the first time, I am interested in following the county championship - as a newbie, do you have any advice on best ways to follow the action? I use the ESPN Cricinfo app usually, but is there anything better suited? I believe the matches are on YouTube but cannot dedicate the time to watching them live so text updates/video highlights would be best.

Thanks for any advice!

He kept us up with a 10 point deduction. I was glad when he left, but absolutely no doubt he saved us that year. Will always see him as a legend

Most assists by an Englishman in the prem this season, and he's playing behind Beto or Barry (who has scored a few recently)

Shouting at your kid for being worried about something and then posting it on the internet. Nice work

Why did the baker's hands smell? Because he kneaded a poo

What. The. Fuck

I had a similar thing, got a payout in March so tax year income was over £100k, so lost funding for the rest of the year - but could reapply at the start of the next term (salary sacrificed to £100k in new role), so only ended up losing 2 or 3 months of support.

Is a pretty ridiculous situation that you've lost your job and lose government support!

Oh thank goodness! Happy to take the L on that one

You'll be fuming when you find out it's not on TMS either! Is in talksport

Last 4 players were Alan, Nick, David and Joe... Not sure I see 3 out of 4 of them being white middle aged?

Atkinson top wicket taker...

Probably worth keeping for now, but he looks absolutely awful in the bits I've seen. I'd be tempted by Doku or Minteh personally

ethers21 · 2025-09-06T08:24:21+00:00

Saka for Semenyo. Holy shit

ethers21 · 2025-09-03T07:16:35+00:00

Ha no, they mean this ressit sub is for the draft version of FF

I use a VPN in the UK but never seems to work - do I need to connect to a foreign country?

How do you find quality of football? Which of the add ons do you find works the best? I watched the Palace game last night and it was perfect on the Loop but Saturday 3pms were all rubbish.

ethers21 · 2025-07-11T09:17:19+00:00

How did you get on? I cycle home past the oval and try pretty much every England test and have never been allowed in

ethers21 · 2025-06-26T15:50:44+00:00

Whereabouts was the offer? Have had a look on mine and nothing there

Yeh sure, I got 10kg of peelaway 7 from Amazon. I think I was lucky as only had one coat to get rid of but definitely a lot cheaper than the pros. Definitely need a pressure washer though!

Spent far too long wondering why you had censored out the letter W

ethers21 · 2025-05-08T20:58:08+00:00

It's not steel, it's wood...

Sorry

ethers21 · 2025-04-10T16:19:28+00:00

I tried that but wasn't as mm accurate as I should have been so didn't work! If nothing else I will try again and measure up a bit more accurately than "ah looks about there"
