This fascinating biography into one of English cricket's most unrestrained figures was a worthy winner of the @cricketmediauk.bsky.social Cricket Book of the Year award. Tim Wigmore's Test Cricket: A History (1/2) was runner-up in a very strong year (1/2).

Or is time BBC news stopped clowning around and covered political party conferences properly? And maybe is it time they stopped clowning around and got on BlueSky properly instead of investing all their efforts on the hate-filled X? The clowning is necessary because of second-rate journalism.

Do this lot even know they are still promoting "stories" that have been outdated for days? Total charlatans. They can't even copy other people's stories correctly. What a desperate state so much of "journalism" is in these days. #lufc

Hey. it's still 5 days til we re-open. The Suite Lanka guys are way ahead of schedule with the beach restuarant upgrade. 🫣

This made me laugh. Take away the London rivalry effect and the message is clear.

It’s mind boggling how a company with the resources and reputation of ESPNcricinfo can make such a pig’s ear of how it shows its live scores.
