Test cricket is generally SHITE. Limited overs games can be pretty fun.

Well, as long as there isn’t a bit of rain
Id assume that tension build up isn't the same. Something about the game just being drawn out over days. And I find 20/20 a bit like cheating no isn't part of batsman vs bowler the amount of time you have to spend being consistent?

Staying in the sun(scorching or otherwise) for hours can be very draining physically & mentally.

Yep blows my mind that these guys stay sharp for five six hours straight while epl CBs will loose concentration five times over 90 mins.
Brother if you don't think 90 minutes of the most elite football is absolutely mentally exhausting idk what to say.

Not what meant, like I appreciate any elite sports has an element of mental fatigue. However generally cbs make more mistakes than batsmen (it seems, I only watch ashes...pls). Think half of being a top level cb are the ones that make the least mistakes
By Perfect Blue Go To PostAll pale in comparison to baseballAgreed, nothing beats Baseball for boredom.
By Laboured Go To PostDefinition of bland. That thing the other week when they stormed off because the crowd didn't seem excited enough was the most cringe shit.
Anyways I got to see The Mars Volta last weekend so I'll be content forever.
Lol, Royal Blood should storm off because they suck. Not the other way around.

I fell in love with Test cricket and I still view it as the best form of the game. ODIs are also up there.
20/20 is a great way to get people interested in the sport as a whole, kids love it. So it performs an important function for the game as a whole. But In a sporting sense it might as well be a different game.
Speaking of 20/20. Had my one month post-Lasik checkup today. They’re very happy with the results, as am I. Better than 20/20 apparently.
By Willkiller Go To PostSpeaking of 20/20. Had my one month post-Lasik checkup today. They’re very happy with the results, as am I. Better than 20/20 apparently.How much did that cost?
By Pedja Go To PostHow much did that cost?4.8k. 500 quid for the iDesign, but then 300 off from a referral so I paid 4500 all in

i considered it. someone i know got it, and he says he basically has hdr vision now. sees even better at night.
i'm afraid in my case it would only be temporary because i have astigmatism in both eyes.

likeable lad.

I have an astigmatism in one eye. But was told it likely won’t reduce the length of the effectiveness.
But yeah, it’s been brilliant

Slaent elite back at it
Nah must feel good man to be able to see (assuming your vision was pretty shit before).
Decided to let what I suspect is a ligament tear heal itself. So happy I started walking again y'day. Horrible limp tho, I look like I'm doing motion capture for the zombie animations.

dont do this, one of the biggest regrets in my life. doctor looked at the scan of my knee, immediately said he'd need to do surgery and then asked if i had any questions. like a dick, i asked if it would hurt and then he changed his mind lmao(?!?). sent me to physiotherapy, it didn't heal properly, and i never played football properly again. sucks. go see a doctor and if hes a flaky cunt go see another one.

how bad was your vision before, and what is the expected length of effectiveness?
with normal contacts, i'm at -5.00 in my worst eye.
By n8 dogg Go To PostHello scum

It's ankle not knee ... Even if its just tear? I called 111 and a pharmacy earlier in the week and they said if nothing is broken and it hasn't completely snapped (and I'm sure I'd be deafning pain it has) the best hospital would do is just give me a boot. They said don't go doctor as they'll just refer to me hospital because GPs don't do x rays.
But I want to play footy again so may get it looked at it.
Honestly mate if you're limping days after you should get it looked at. Especially if you like playing football.
By Laboured Go To PostCan't believe Zaha disabled Nigel. Incredible lore.Carved him apart like a chainsaw through an expensive desk
By bud Go To Posthow bad was your vision before, and what is the expected length of effectiveness?-4.5, so pretty bad. There’s a tipping point around -2 where it doesn’t matter too much past that, you can’t do anything without glasses/contacts.
with normal contacts, i'm at -5.00 in my worst eye.
Length of effectiveness is a hard thing for them to quantify really, but they said it should be very effective for a long time. Both my parents had it done 20 years ago and they both have avoided needing any kind of assistance since
Like, I would love it if we signed Caicedo. He's brilliant.
But he'll be more expensive than Mount and doesn't even play the same position. We've either decided to prioritise another midfield role or we're bluffing very badly.
Edit: Read a synopsis of the article. We've taken into account the difference in valuation between Caicedo and Mount and are willing to pay a big extra die to the formers longer contract.

By Laboured Go To PostIdk the entire article feels like a threat tbh. But I would honestly prefer Caicedo.It's definitely a threat. We know Chelsea want Caicedo.
But yeah. In terms of potential I'd rate Caicedo as higher than Mount.
Oh and also, god help us when negotiating with Brighton. They always get top dollar for their players. We'll end up spending the entire budget.
Might be worth it though in the long run tho. We need to be approaching them in a few years for Ferguson. Get that working relationship going.

Caicedo over Mount every day. He can sub in for Casemiro and play alongside him. Meaning Eriksen can either play alongside Casemiro or sub in for Bruno.
Don’t care if he’s more expensive, get Mount next season on a free.
