Just heard the news. Being a cricket tragic it is a sad day for me.
'bye Mr 'Crickut'.
Loved your commentaries.
Sad day today. Moving tribute from Billy Birmingham on the great man.
If you haven't read Billy's tribute look at the 12th man face book page. Well said Billy.
Yeah, I'll have to dust off my copy of "The 12th Man" and listen to it again. Great comedy skit of a great man!!!Quote:

Why ? all he did was talk about a cricket game. A game, nothing else. Why do we lift these people to a cult status. Are we missing something, or just following the Romans, give the people entertainment. And they will be happy.Quote:
