It’s a harder task than you might imagine. The spoils of our long hours of trawling are over at Cricinfo.

Nando’s Watch is back by popular request and there’s also a bit about Danny Morrison.

We love Danny Morrison and his unrelated-bullet-points style of communication. It’s good to see he’s much the same on Twitter.

DON'T BE LIKE GATT!

Mike Gatting wasn't receiving the King Cricket email when he dropped that ludicrously easy chance against India in 1993.

Coincidence?

Why risk it when it's so easy to sign up?

  1. I wonder if 10 years ago we might have described this as ‘trolling’ rather than ‘trawling’, but can’t now because that means something completely different.

    I read a sci fi book featuring a seafaring species that gathered small fish by trolling recently. It mentioned ‘their trolling’ far too much to be taken seriously in any way

  2. Disappointed to see no pseudo-philosophical nonsense from e.g. Mushtaq this week, meaning no commenters rushing in to defend him. Sniff. Still, the return of Nando’s Watch is welcomed.

    1. PARTHIV PATEL IS ABOUT TO HAVE HIS 31ST BIRTHDAY.

      HOW DID THIS HAPPEN?

      WHO ALLOWED THIS TO HAPPEN?

      WHOSE CRUMMY IDEA WAS THIS?

      1. I honestly thought he was about 22. Maybe 24, tops.

        THIRTY-FIRST BIRTHDAY.

        Good grief.

        And what did I do with all the years? Gaah.

  3. My Stop the World moment of the week comes courtesy of ‘finnysteve’ using the vowel-sound indefinite article for @NandosUK. Is he actually hearing it as atnandohsyookay in his head?

  4. I didn’t know twitter had a ‘snaggle-toothed grimace’ smiley on offer for its users, but I’m glad Danny is able to express himself so fully on the page.

  5. For some reason, none of the actual tweets are coming up for me (presumably some security setting or something).

    Makes for an interesting article.
