    My uncle played against Knott when they were kids. Not sure of the level but probably (inter) school. Anyway Knott bowled my uncle out.

    Often thought that a great name for a Kent pub could be...."Caught Knott Bowled Underwood."

    It's Mark Davies who has done the damage - three wickets to Cole's one.

    Is Coles the Charlton fan?
    Coles has been to The Valley a couple of times with my boys but he's really not into football so wouldn't confess to following a team.

    Likes a little flutter though, was betting on everyone and everything in the Champions league final! (and he lost all of them)

    anyone know why warwickshire are called the bears?
    From the coat of arms of Warwickshire, this quote from the Warwickshire county records office explains

    The Bear and Ragged Staff

    The origins of these emblems are lost in the distant past, but have been associated with the earls of Warwick since at least as early as the 14th century. William Dugdale, writing in the 1650s, said that Arthgal, an Earl of Warwick at the time of King Arthur, thought that his name came from the Welsh "artos" or bear. He also suggested that the ragged staff was chosen because Morvidus, Earl of Warwick, killed a giant with the broken branch of a tree. Of course, neither of these earls really existed and Dugdale was just recalling medieval legends. The bear was a common heraldic device and implied boldness and courage.
