Gutted. This game was listed on cricfree.sx so I thought I'd be watching the game today but it's not actually on.
Is there anywhere to even listen to the game? Cant get it on Radio wales on tv
Ah well 0-0.
Another point for us. Onward and upward.
Let's just say this game has yet to really spark into life.
Boring rubbish
Got to be time for Huws soon.
He's brought Zohore on, Trollope turning into a pillock....
Maybe he's always been one
Inert and about as exciting as watching paint dry. Anti-football.
Tans plan is working
"Ok they disrespected me"
"They can have their blue back, but that's it now I'll give them shite managers who are bad and get the team playing crap football but good enough to keep them in the championship"
"that'll teach them"
Evil laugh whilst rubbing his black cat
