Highveld - you saying you can be mischevious ( even spelt correctly) - no never!!!!!!!!!!!

I do believe views expressed on this forum are genuinely felt and certainly not malicious - so different to the old original forum which had one or two unpleasant characters seemingly causing upsets. My motto is to never fall out with anyone just because they are wrong!!

unless i am remembering wrong, at that time wasn't he behind the unlamented Alex Loudon in the pecking order? I could totally understand him leaving for better opportunities under those circumstances, I never saw a cricketer with the lazy arrogant body language of Loudon***, whose talent came a long way short of matching his own estimation of it.

*** entirely coincidentally Loudon was an Old Etonian, to say his body language in the field or running between the wickets was 'languid' would be an understatement

Strange thing with Loudon was that he never made a first-class 100, announced he was leaving and then promptly made 3 or 4 in his last season.

Alex Loudon who went out with Pippa Middleton but dumped her because his family said that she "isn't wife material".

I agree with Paul. I want to see players enjoying their cricket and happy to be here. It is a privilege to represent the Bears and play in front of the supporters. Be a serious cricketer without taking it too seriously.
