Reply		The Barry Bannan Master Class Match Thread

Hunter’s post on page one of this thread which received 24 upvotes made an enormous amount of sense to me because it’s what I’ve been thinking myself for years.
Come to think of it, I think I’d rather have him as manager than JS at the moment because he seems more tactically aware.

From that lineup it looks like we’re not going to make any attempt to nullify Bannan.
What could possibly go wrong?

Yeah, I’m so glad that we only had three home games in the whole of the first two months of the season so we could fit in two in three days at the turn of the year when it’s cold enough to freeze your nuts off.

And then it got a lot worse in the second half.

Your comparison with the McLaren season is becoming uncannily accurate.Today’s result parallels the New Year loss to Bolton in that year. Now, we can only await with trepidation the result against this year’s Rotherham (Sheffield Wednesday) to complete the picture.

I think your last two words sum it up. Next week, Dembele at centre-back.

Especially when it’s Barry effing Bannan in front of the Loft/Ellerslie. It may not happen every time but it sure feels like it.

Like you I’m glad they won in Australia for the first time in fifteen years and playing 20/20 style on that lottery of a wicket seemed to do the trick but I just hope that this win in an already lost series doesn’t convince the hierarchy that nothing needs to change and swishing at every ball is the way to succeed in Test Cricket.

He’d have needed a time machine L Block, as it closed down twenty years ago!

It was very loud and clear from behind us in R Block in the Ellerslie where I was. I was just as disappointed as Numpty about it and the first time yelled “Shut Up” but it was futile as there were so many doing it and so loudly. Perhaps this is where the Anti-Marti Twitter following that harasses Clive have their main residence.

I think that England’s only hope of winning the Ashes back in the foreseeable future is if some of the players that Hunter’s named prove to be truly Test class and the Aussie replacements for their ageing frontline strike force of Cummins, Starc, Hazlewood Boland and Lyon aren’t anywhere near in the same class. Then at least it might be competitive.

Stokes and McCullum’s Bashir “project” has failed abysmally. He couldn’t even get a county to play for last summer and when taken on the tour anyway went for 0-115 in England Lions hammering by Australia B thus making himself virtually unselectable even on the only turning wicket at Adelaide where we badly need a front line spinner.

Unfortunately I think it could be curtains for Marti already. The Leicester fans were wanting him out even before this and 3-O down at home by halftime could be the final straw unless there’s a remarkable turnaround in the second half.

After Cook and Dunne keeping a clean sheet yesterday I’m not sure whether changing the centre backs yet again would be doing us any favours.

Is that the excellent original series from the late 1970’s or a remake?

So by your logic the soldiers of Britain and other countries shouldn’t have fought and laid down their lives to defeat the evil of Nazi Germany?
War should always be a last resort but sometimes there’s no alternative.
