Pie Chucker

People who hate him. He was in the town of Baldock, population circa 30,000 and 500,000,000 people turned up to say they respect cricket hence hate this total dickhead.

Let’s not Vettori about, let’s crunch numbers. Here follows the amusing title’s on the betting advice posts, with the overall return from the 20 invested:

 Oi! Punt! 24, Chelsea won nothing

Pie Chucker apologises to New Zealand fans everywhere.  As soon as we said England would probably lose this 2nd Test the writing was on the wall for the Black Caps.  In light of this, we’d like to congratulate Australia on their 2009 five nil Ashes whitewash… [Read more →]

Wow. England started the morning at about 250 runs short of NZ’s 1st innings total of 381-9 (no teeth Flynn was absent, having become an automatic Leeds United fan). They put up feeble resistance and bar Stuart Broad (30, 4 fours) got almost no runs, sneaking past the follow-on target. I at this moment felt desolate. England I optimistically thought could skittle them for 150, but hang on: England will never get over 300 to win a test. EVER.

In case you weren’t aware, http://PieChucker.com is not the only cricket website online.  Here is some stuff we’ve enjoyed this week:

Mike Atherton savages Vettori for playing in the IPL instead of the early part of this tour.

Cricket with Balls puts the boot into the Aussies.  Hooray!

Decide which Aussie you hate the most with ‘Are you a left-arm Chinaman?’

The Guardian analyse England’s Batsmen

What is Peter Moores doing allowing Flintoff to play for Doncaster Rovers in the play-off final. I was disgusted to see Michael Vaughan celebrating with Justin Langer and Brett Lee. We need more hostility in the Ashes build-up.

Chelsea did win nothing this season (guffaw), meaning my advice reaps even more money if you have followed it. Also the 1st test against NZ was a draw, Vaughan surpassed my estimation and therefore 21 back off 20. That’s 1 profit. Pence or millions depending on yer jacobs.

I read in various sources that Jimmy Anderson had broken teeth. Erm. That’s what (Goodnight) Anderson does. I fail to see why this is news. Rumour has it that the Australians are not coming to England next year, due to sheer terror at the prospect of facing him.   [Read more →]

The message to the New Zealanders yesterday was clear: Don’t mess wiv da Burnley Bronco.  On his home ground Jimmy Anderson bullied the Tourists into submission.  Well, he hit two batsmen in the same over and in the absence of an English Courtney Walsh, England fans have to make do with this level of intimidation.  Perhaps it is also worth mentioning that the Kiwis’ ’submission’ leaves them at 202-4 overnight, which ain’t too bad considering their top order is where they put the Rabbits.

Steve Harmison used the recent Durham v Yorkshire fixture to boost his chances of a return to the England side; he broke rival bowler Matthew Hoggard’s thumb.  Of course Hoggard isn’t actually in the England team otherwise he would have been at Lords, not the Riverside, but as the 12th man he is above Harmison in the pecking order.   Break another 60 or so thumbs and Harmy could be NEXT IN LINE FOR A TEST PLACE in the event of an injury, loss of form or falling out with the selectors from Siders, Jimmy or Broadola.  There is always hope, Steve-o!
