Len’s Top Tens #9

.

Top Ten Reasons Yorkshire has a better one-day side than England

“You hold him down, while I run him out”

.

  1. Would never run a batsman out whilst he was being stretchered off the pitch…
  2. …or loaded into a hearse.
  3. Fewer and better quality Kolpack signings.
  4. Ginger Captain, an abomination before God.
  5. Warm up routine of Pie&Pint less injury prone than touch rugby.
  6. Star batsman’s speciality shot? Single to third man that wins the game.
  7. Four Words: Rollerbladeing deep extra cover.
  8. Can play more than two games a month before performance effected by “Workload”.
  9. Coach’s long term strategy more detailed than “Wait for Mushy to finish his qualifying period”.
  10. And the main reason: They spend more time practising technique than excuses.

  1. Brilliant work Len – I’m laughing on the outside but crying on the inside.

  2. Loved 5 and 7 – givng you the evil glare for 4 – God might not be keen but by golly I am and as for 8 – wasn’t Virgil “rested” for the 20/20 (overwork? over-tired by rent collecting I’ll be bound).
