Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I guess the TA was a bit of a Bonnie Tyler effect - turned around

(I feel as though I was there that day although I was walking in the Brecon Beacons on a school expedition - we were listening via patchy reception on an portable radio as Bob Willis charged in taking wicket after wicket, one of the most exciting sporting events I've ever not witnessed)

1981 Chris Old was one of Ian Botham's batting partners as his 149 not out turned around the second Ashes Test

Of course it was the third test

Dio gets to tear down the hill at the Kirkstall Lane end...

The rest, as they say, is history

I just need to leave a respectful pause after that - proper edifying sporting history

I'm troubled by that picture above - either Botham has an extra digit affixed at a jaunty angle or else he has an taken a tiny Australian penis as a memento of victory, Kim Hughes's probably
