  1. OD - Week 4

    Home to the side sitting 7th. We've got 4 at Energetic, but they're all playing on a TIE. Should be an easy victory. BATTY SHRIMPERS v Worchester_Sauce We can tell you that Worchester_Sauce won the toss and elected to field. The pitch is looking a little uneven. Should be tough for the...

    OD - Week 4

    Ouch! Not a good start today. Need some help from the middle order again. Lamo and Marriott are only energetic. Welcome to kings-of-spin CG for the match between kings-of-spin and ShrimperZone CC. We can tell you that kings-of-spin won the toss and elected to field. The pitch is looking a...

  3. FC - Match 3

    Away to the side in 2nd. I'm at full-strength although we have 3 at Energetic, so we've gone in with 6 bowlers to try and save some PFL on a Flat pitch. These are probably the 2nd best side in the league, so a win here will probably wrap up the division as I'm already 20 points clear. Weather is...

  4. OD - Week 3

    Away to the bottom of the league today, resting a few ready for Sunday's Cup Game, and we're on a TIE. Blackstar v BATTY SHRIMPERS We can tell you that Blackstar won the toss and elected to field. The pitch is looking a touch on the green side. All the seam bowlers have been out there rubbing...

    Soccer AM is ****

    This used to be so fecking good, but it seems to have completely died on its arse. They drag out the same old guests, bore us to tears with the same old Skill Schools and to be fair there is only so many skills you can do with a ball before it gets boring. The Soccerets have gone right down...

  6. FC - Week 2

    Home to a side who also won their 1st game by an innings. Evelyn, Singh and Kekeletso haven't quite recovered from last weeks exertions, so Hogg (WK) and Prasad come in. Lockett also comes in after his 7 wicket haul in Sunday's cup game. Middleton and Schoeman will bat at 6 and 7 to try and save...
  7. Napster

    OD week 1

    Well, I should lose this one. Only 3 decent bowlers, so this could be nasty. We can tell you that Napster's XI won the toss and elected to field. The pitch is looking a cracker! Hard and fast - should be a run-fest out there on this partially cloudy day. Lets join our team for ball-by-ball...

    OD -Play-offs

    Biggest game in my managerial career Playing a side who have a few players better than mine, but I have a more balanced team, and have a winning streak of 11 games... and it's a good start Welcome to Trent Bridge CG for the match between Trent Bridge and Napster's XI. We can tell you that...

    Rafa's Not Keane On Robbie

    As a GBP20m striker, failing to make the starting line-up is disappointing. Being repeatedly substituted on the odd occasion that you do is even worse. But the nadir of Robbie Keane's short and unhappy time on Merseyside must surely be the indignity of being kicked off the bench in favour of...

    OD Week 14

    Jorvik Celtic vs Petterfershire CCC Full-strength team out on a GFI- a win here and a defeat for 1st place Knapster's XI against 3rd place Perminators could hand me the title. Should have been in my own hands, but was unable to set orders for a couple of weeks and lost games I should have won...

  11. OD - Week 11

    2nd (me) against 3rd. Don't think I can win the league although the leaders have struggled in the last couple of games, winning by a 1 run and 4 runs in their last 2 games, so who knows. Ashburn CC v BATTY SHRIMPERS We can tell you that Ashburn CC won the toss and elected to field. The pitch...

    Hi folks, This will be the final Interview with an Exile for Series 1, and I thought I would give some of the people I have cheekily edited on here over the past few months the opportunity to get their own back. So in the series finale, I am answering the questions! Would like to thank...

    OD week 9

    Big big match. Top 3 all tied. 3rd (me) plays 2nd at home today. Narrowly lost first game against them earlier this season (only game I've lost). And it's a good start Welcome to The Dusty Bowl for the match between Napster's XI and spitfire. We can tell you that Napster's XI won the toss...

    FC - Week 8

    We kick off the second half of the season against the second best side in the division. We took a chance and rested Plums, Fetts, Richie and Lamo and it paid dividends as they've thrown it completely. May lose out on gate receipts but the extra fitness will be worth it. Welcome to Garon Park...

    The BT - T20 Week!

    Lost the toss and put into bat, which is fooking annoying! They dont have a bad team, but there top 4 players are all dead PFL-wise as the manager very rarely logs in! Sookram, rather annoyingly, cant play all week! Johnson doesn't play, Raven and Cook are batters only! End of Over 9: 73-1...

    India v England ODIs

    C'mon England. KP has won the toss and we will field. It's a much changed Indian team from the one who beat Australia. No Tendulkar, Ganguly, Laxman, Sharma or Kumble. Triple good news for England in that Broad is fit, Ravi plays and there is no Swann.

    BATTY SHRIMPERS v Az's Allstars We can tell you that Az's Allstars won the toss and elected to bat. The pitch is looking a touch on the green side. All the seam bowlers have been out there rubbing their hands on this partially cloudy day. Missing Middleton, Schoeman and Pollock today, so...

    Resistance is Futile v BATTY SHRIMPERS We can tell you that Resistance is Futile won the toss and elected to field. The pitch is looking quite cracked! A field day for the seam bowlers I would reckon on this sunny day. I'm at full-strength bar Schoeman (Energetic), as I come up against Mrs...
