Utter sh1te. I really believed that England would set India 250+
Apart from Crawley they were like rabbits in headlights.
Massively disappointed after getting into a strong position.
Lost by 434 runs. Self inflicted some of this. Bazball needs a rethink. It just doesn't work at anymore against a team like India. 4-1 must be odds on now. Even Jimmy went for an unprecidented 6 an over. Spending 10 days in Abu Dhabi probably didn't help either.
Looks a lost cause now , but after the fightback in first test anything can happen. Just hope Root plays his natural game and doesn't go all gung ho. He needs a score of 130 odd to get his batting average back up to 50 where it belongs.
Can't wait form our game on the 2nd March. I was at my daughter's house in Glasgow when the home game was played and couldn't believe we'd actually won so convincingly. There's also a chance we might meet in the play-offs. Ben Tollit seems to be the jigsaw piece we've been missing.
Masterstroke of a signing. He gives us something different. With us until the end of the season and I'll feel more confident going (if we make them) into the play-offs. Came on yesterday mid second half and immediately lifted us. Also probably the best ref we've had this season at the Deva.
Hi Bottega, I just bought my ticket for our game next month. Is there street parking in the vicinity of Glanford Park?
Well at least you are going to make the play-offs. I always thought we would make them but not so confident we are now. On current form we will just miss out.
I think the red realised that the pen he'd given them was
I think the ref later realised that he'd given them a pen that was not a pen so he gave us one at the death which was also probably not one. They scored with theirs , we didn't. We've been very profligate with pens this season and have...
Let it go mate
I like the fact that in 6 games against you we have never lost, despite the fact that we were 3-0 down at h/t in the home game last season. I missed the game because I was watching Celtic beat Rangers.
Yes agree about the referees. I think we might have been up there with you and the Lambs but for dreadful referees. I don't think we've had a decent one all season, My grouse with them is they ignore blatant time-wasting and then add nothing near at the end. Buxton this season and Gloucester...
You must not give up hope because the play-offs will be difficult after coming so close.
Last season it was AFC Fylde and Kings Lynn toe to toe and the unpopular team eventually won it. KL entered the play-offs with a home tie against Kidderminster (who had come from nowhere) and got thrashed 4-1.
