I doubt if he is the only person bankrupt under this spiv government.

You're not seriously blaming the government for Griffin's bankruptcy, are you?

Really?

People should remember that Sir Geoff scored a ton in what he says was his best innings ever after that run out and that Randall scored the winning runs in the2nd innings with Geoff at the other end. His century in the next test at Headingley was his 100th first class ton and in the same game Randall took the catch to win the match and the Ashes. All part of the plan!

Shame...next

Having shared an England dressing room in the early 70's with Mr Boycott I can assure you all that he was not universally appreciated by his fellow players, as you'd expect he was very opinionated not just about batting performance but all aspects, picked up on every little mistake out in the field and let the miscreants know about it at the breaks, I once witnessed he and Alan Knott almost come to blows when he criticised one wicket keeping mistake - and I myself was accused of theft by him then when someone else pointed out his error he just stomped off in a mood, not big enough to apologise - no I'm not a fan



Eh ?

Me ?

Play for England ?

No I was 12 years old and the England dressing room "gopher", running errands for the players for £5 a day courtesy of my uncle who was one of the managers at Headingley, funny thing was that I barely knew any of them and hated cricket

No.

It's just a statement that others will be made bankrupt during this governments term and more will be when the next government gets power and so on. It's part of the current system.

It's not unique nor is it a story that is any different to others whose financial skills are not as sound as they should be

Gordon Brown could write a book on how to fix the global economy.

Actually, hang on a sec...

He could!

Out of memory wasn't Mr Boycott along with Mr Botham pretty good with his fists against the fairer sex?

Roughie-toughies indeed.

Keeping his bank balance in the black?

Really, you believe that Brown could have rescued our economy....sheesh

I'm not one to be uncritical of Brown, but the economy was in growth by May 2010 – that's simply a fact – while various commentators have been moving to the view that, had Brown not decided to bail out the banks, the situation would have been a very great deal worse. The other thing he is now being credited with is keeping the UK out of the euro.
