England v Canada text commentary

"Once again the crowd is more than disappointing, I've played Graham Gooch's Test Cricket on the Commodore 64 in front of more people."

Hehehe ;)

Heh, yeah spotted that too... was watching the text scroll as I was doing other stuff on the PC at the time. More fun reading it than watching the game by the sounds of it :lol:

Wow! Judging from that devastating comment, it was a pretty disappointing game.

Actually, the Cricket World Cup is taking place in the West Indies. On terrible slow pitches.

Wasn't the word 'pointless' ? :wink:
But maybe there would have been no "Hitchhikers' Guide To The Galaxy" without it. :lol:

Unfortunately this World Cup will be remember more for the (utterly horrible) murder of Pakistan coach Bob Woolmer.

And finally Australia v West Indies on free-to-air Tv tonight :D
