Tim Bresnan ( Yorks & England )

[munksyb]

Na na na na , he's a blade & he's a blade

Just a bit of light releif

Bumble reporting on the cricket pointed out that Bresnan ( from Pontefract ) is a Blade.

Every little helps

Vaughan may be a pig but as the skipper of an ashes winning England team I'd more than happily shake his hand and buy him a pint. Still, no reason not to bait the grunter anyway...

Was listening to Michael Palin on the radio tonight and he confirmed he is a Blade but he does follow t'pigs. I have seen it on forums before that he was a Blade, nice to hear him confirm it though.

id shake his hand in gratitude after his ashes achievement,then laugh stupidly in his face and remind him that his beloved football team are a pile of pure freshly laid dung.

Good old Bumble, he also mentioned Bresnan not being hit in the pads infront of the umpire, as he was a pig!

Bollocks to Bumble. He's a Lancastrian twat. Or should that be 'tweet'.

Sod it. He's a git.

Yes, heard that about Bresnan, it was news to me. Let's hope he turns out to be the new Botham/Flintoff.

The umpire referred to is Richard Kettleborough.

Bumble's starting to irritate. When he started, his natural exuberance was endearing, now he seems like he's starting to believe his own publicity and is just annoying.

Blimey - my life's few opportunities for a claim to fame all in the same thread!

Played against Michael Vaughan from the age of about 11 to 17 in the Sheffield Junior Leagues.
Played against Richard Kettleborough when I was about 15 and he was just breaking into County second XI cricket - his Dad (or Uncle - I lose track of the Kettleboroughs) coached at Worksop school and we used to play a 60-over friendly there every year
(A bit tenuous this) Played against Tim Bresnan's Dad - he used to play for Townville in Pontefract and could hit a ball fucking hard. Townville were about as good as any team in Yorkshire at the time and didn't pay players. Also played there when Castleford got to the Challenge Cup final - we were in the field as what sounded like a couple of thousand miners in the Welfare at the side of the pitch sang "Abide with me" - rousing, even though it had nothing to do with our game.

Now all I need to do is find a way of linking Liam and Noel's older brother Paul into the conversation and I can cover all claims to fame in fell swoop!

Sad, boring and approaching middle age from just outside Stockport.

Maybe it's due to his build and (perceived) pace, I tend to think of him as being a Pringle with more of a bat to him, than being close to Beefy or Freddie. I say perceived pace as in commentaries recently, it has been noted by several of the luminaries that he is a little faster than previously thought. I do like Bresnan, and can see him being quite a dependable 7 or 8.

I agree about Bumble too, and your assessment of him actually mirrors my opinion of Alan "you mean football is played outside of Liverpool, Manchester, and North/West London?" Green as well as Lloyd. The pair of them have become parodies of themselves, and it can make for some excruciatingly painful listening.

The Piggy Vaughan isn't from Yorkshire Either!

have to disagree about bumble. i love listening to him. yes he might go a little overboard at times but when you look at some of the mundane shite he has to commentate on domestically it can't be that easy at times. i also think athers and nasser are very good to listen to.

alan green is a complete cock.....

and has anyone else seen vaughan on that hair restoration advert? i didn't think he'd resort to that tripe for money.

 

[jpblade]

Alan Green I wouldn't give tuppence for his commentaries.

However, for me Bumble "Start the Car" Lloyd and Peter Alliss are the two best commentators going.
