Ive played for cheshire at both Cricket and Rugby

Cricket is played by men with small balls.

Rugby is played by men with funny shaped balls.
And basketball players have bouncy balls.

I'd rather watch paint dry or a kettle boil than watch cricket. Cricket's dreadfully dull.
Just a personal opinion though. Wouldn't want you to feel I was picking on you

What about paint boiling in a kettle?

I hate it when the football season is over.

However, the exciting bits of the summer are when the different leagues announce their compositions for the following season. I am currently (on another forum - for footy people) in discussion with another anorak regarding the East Riding Amateur league line up for this season, name changes, mergers, etc etc - love it !!

FA Cup weekend coming up - local derby, Silsden v Colne.

Can't wait !

Do the dynamos still play at holt house?

Do the dynamos still play at holt house?

Just after winning the Northern Premier League their owner wound them up - long story, but Holt House was nowhere near Conference standard!

However, a new Colne FC play there now. They are planning to move into a new stadium in the future, but this afternoon they play at Silsden FC (Cougar Park) in the FA Cup (extra preliminary round), and I will be there.

Oh I do love the FA Cup.
