How many century threads do you have and are you also compenstating for anything?

[ChiangMai noon]

CMn - you think Justin [Rose] has a chance of winning come Sunday?

A fair chance certainly.
Are you thinking of a flutter?
If so, be prudent.

The masters is a beast of a competition, very rarely any surprises here, it is the best players that win it. So many very good players have turned to jelly over the closing stretch and totally ballsed it up.
God knows what us amateurs would go around in.

Rose has a chance but i certainly wouldn't give him a very good chance.
Stensson is the best European hope.

what's a "flutter"?

[slimboyfat]

what's a "flutter"?

risking some of your hard earned cash in a game of chance

[William]

ahh, a bet.

Is "flutter" gay-lingo?

If i was one of you plummy types, I wouldn't have been elated when Sri Lanka did you over and utterly palpatating when Portugal won on penalties.

[William]

^CMn - you may not like it, but last time I checked it was England AND Wales. Fuck it, even the Scots escaped

its good to see that the chip on your shoulder is fully intact

^CMn - you may not like it, but last time I checked it was England AND Wales.

Sadly.. it is a fukk up based on the governing body being an English and Wales cricket board.
have no idea why or how but it allows Glamorgan to be part of the County Championship and foe Simon Jones, Mathew Maynard, Robert Croft et al to represent England.
When have you ever seen any reference to the England and Wales cricket team?
Don't fully get it either.
Wales have a minor counties team and Scots (Angus Fraser for example played) for England.

In fact, Graham Hick, Robin Smith, Chris Smith and lots of others were your lot weren't they?

[William]

^the most famous player out of that era was Phil Edmonds.

The stories I could tell!! Both Phil Edmonds and Derek Pringle's father played with my old man - Edmonds was a Northern Rhodie and Pringle was a Kenyan.

Did you know that one of the few international cricket 100s Hick scored was on his home pitch in Zim..

And you can to that list the likes of... say, Clive Rice (never played for England but did that stupid one day crap) and Alan Lamb

Seppos don't play proper sports, so don't lie.

Another one up..

i am not quite sure how you manage it, especially as your threads hardly ever get any publicity through the Teak Door newsletter like all the really worthy threads do.

[flash]

DD can you please lock this thread if it hits 99?

[Spin]

I really had no idea that starting threads which then went onto 100 could be regarded as attracting kudos.
It's proven in life that the things that are most popular are never regarded by those with intelligence as any good.
Take Coronation Street for example.

[Butch]

take it where helicopter?

Apparently, it's a Welsh thing.

Not up the bum, no thanks

Appealing to the lowest common denominator I believe the term is:

From Wiki: "When a media outlet has been charged with appealing to the "lowest common denominator", it means they have targeted the lowest, meanest, most basic and perhaps prurient of all possible hopes and dreams of their intended audience."

Not sure what this says about CMN.....Perhaps MeMock should hire him as an editor.

[ChiangMai noon]

47 now.

this thread is so...mmmm....so Britany Spears.
