    The legend: Jeremy Beadle dies after bout of pneumonia..

    Shocking news. Used to love the You've Been Framed as a kid. Still do if I'm honest, but was never the same without him as presenter. Not many knew of his charity work though where he is thought to have raised ~£100m for various causes. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/7217342.stm

    ICC sack World Cup Final Trio

    ICC slaps suspension on World Cup Final officials http://www.cricketweb.net/article.php?CategoryIDAuto=1&NewsIDAuto=4080 Don't know if there's a thread on this or whether it should be put in the Twenty20 WC forum but mods can move it if it is. Bit of the blue for me to read this, it seems...

    Fletcher expected to quit as England coach by BBC

    BBC Report Don't find myself too surprised to be honest. I don't think the ECB/Fletcher had much choice. With the report to come out in the near future, England don't have a coach for now as Moores takes a temporary role.

    RIP Paul Hunter

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/other_sports/snooker/6035879.stm I have no idea what to say. Thoughts go to the very young family he left behind. I'll never forget the reception he got on his return after his cancer went into remission. Scary he was only 27 and was very nice chap when he came...

    BatTrick Cup Part Deux - Signup, Draw, Results and Banter

    Right, Dave has relinquished control of the Cup and I thought it was right to start the competition ball rolling (without spelling mistakes :p) even if control hasn't been decided (it can be decided at a later date who posts fixtures and stuff because it's not a massive job anyway). So without...

    Ronnie Barker passes away at the age of 76

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/tv_and_radio/4307216.stm :( A true comedian of the highest order. Just saw some of his sketches on the news and I couldn't help but chuckle at the stupidity of some of them. :D R.I.P. sir.

    Black Wednesday: English Home Tests - Now Exclusive to SKY

    BBC Cricket - The Article The way that the ECB is run, I fully expect them to make it exclusive to Sky and us people who can't afford Sky will no longer have any international cricket on TV. I just can't see the ECB being able to refuse the reputed £20m they'd lose if they stayed with Channel...

    The Rocket Right-Hand

    Did anyone see Amir Khan's straight right hand in his fight this evening (GMT)? It was an absolute corker. The Korean didn't know what had hit him, what time it was or what he was doing stood in stupid coloured shorts and a not-so-stylish hat. 97 seconds to clock up the first knockout out of...

    Favourite TV Advert

    Don't know if we have had this before but I just saw the advert by Walkers with Paul Gascoigne crying over Gary Lineker stealing his crisps. Absolutely brilliant. Any one seen it? Has that advert been on abroad? Any favourites for members?

    Oil Prices and Rising Demand

    I don't know about anyone else but I'm getting a little worried about the way that the world seems to think that "oh we need more oil, let's just get OPEC to produce more to solve the shortage". America and China have dramatically increased their oil demands over past few months. China because...

    PY retires from ODI

    After many a rumour and plenty of sleepness nights, I have taken the decision to withdraw myself from selection in ODI. It was not a decision made lightly as there is not a ready made successor to take over my duties but several strong candidates, and whoever gets the nod from the selectors I...

    Comments

    Comments and Questions If we aren't allowed to comment in the Predictions thread (which is fair enough) then maybe we should have a sticky thread where we can? Just a thought.

    F1 goes back to the dark ages

    Proposed changes Well it is certainly radical. Opinions? I, for some reason, quite like the idea.
