I'm sure it is not easy for them to predict the demand at these levels of TAPS. I was just below the previous level unfortunately but such is life. I benefitted from the TAPS levels for Wembley so can't complain if I fall the wrong side of these sections on other occasions.

1500 was not a great time for a meeting with the Big Boss. All gone by the time the meeting finished. It was just about walkable too. Will just have to wait til next year ...

The Brewers are setting all kinds of franchise records this year. The pitching has been superb all year, the offense more of a slow burn but now looking like real prospects to go deep in October.

18 wickets now, Middlesex lead by 31. Red ball cricket this late in the summer seems a bit of a lottery.

Too late for the journey in but anyone planning in using the Central Line this weekend - don't. Minor delays can = 20 mins between trains, so had to find alternative route in and missed a pre-match meet up. Oh well, the match will make up for it!

Off topic but wasn't Foyle's even more convoluted? Take the book to someone who hand write a receipt which you took to someone else who would stamp it when you paid, and you then went back to the first person with proof of payment to pick up the book And that was after finding the book as many...

Fun fact. 400 is more than 4 other teams combined scored in their first innings in this round of matches. Not so fun fact - still plenty of ways to lose from here!

Scores 2 in a 4-1 win, the second described as a "wonder strike" by Woodford's Twitter feed.

Back playing for Woodford Town tonight.

There was a period (99-06) where I saw many more Latics games than Bees. I was married to an ardent Latic who had family ties to the club, and we lived in the borough. I still look for their results after ours. I'm glad I've not been around to see the steady decline first hand, a cautionary...

Well they couldn't do Plan A much worse, it's difficult to tell what they are doing at the moment as it's been all Barnsley since the subs came on.

Warburton in actual Plan B shock.

Whether intentional or not - I think it is very unlikely - some of the no balls were so big that they were no that different to bowling consistently short to a No 11 - which he would have been warned about. The fact he carried on bowling no balls suggests to me that he wasn't that bothered...

At his current rate of scoring (6 in 64 balls), Pujara won't get a hundred even if he faced every ball remaining in the match.

Looks like this thread needs a "staying put" banner after yesterday!
