@SirTimRice Sir Tim it's because of the collaboration with the Elvis Presley Estate & Can't help falling in love. I don't mind it but the blue away shirt is better. 147 views · 3 likes · 0 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

Disappointing but not devastating start to the Black Cats 2026/7 campaign but let's hope they play in their proper colours whenever possible in future. Who came up with the pink? Actually nearly all away strips are now dire. 2.8K views · 33 likes · 0 reposts · 6 replies Open on X →

@SirTimRice 100% correct. Who are these people who believe they can change the language and enforce it upon others? Batters? This ain’t baseball. 92 views · 4 likes · 0 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

@SirTimRice Not this old chestnut again. As a cricketing term, ‘batter’ has been in use since the 1770s. You do not have bowlsmen, fieldsmen, or captainmen, so why make the distinction for batters? PS: Sobers was an all-rounder — and no, I’ve never seen them called ‘all-roundsme 2.8K views · 14 likes · 0 reposts · 3 replies Open on X →

@SirTimRice Batter is for haddock or cakes. Or Yorkshire Puddings. Gary Sobers was my boyhood hero (and remains so) and I was fortunate to see him play - bat, bowl and field. He is and will always be 'The Greatest'. 408 views · 5 likes · 0 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →

Sad to see the late great Gary Sobers described as a magnificent batter when in his long and unmatched career he was known as a batsman (and as a bowler, fielder, captain) 19K views · 402 likes · 18 reposts · 36 replies Open on X →

Gosh - half time entertainment at World Cup pretty grim. Made about as much sense as having a football match halfway through a Madonna concert. PS Well done Spain. 1.8K views · 27 likes · 2 reposts · 5 replies Open on X →

Matt is a genius artist at the top of his form. Yesterday and today in Telegraph absolute genius. It's not just the actual gag but the bewilderment of his characters with which we all identify. 2.7K views · 6 likes · 0 reposts · 2 replies Open on X →
