Wrong thread. But I found that a bit surprising. No way they should have been allowed to use the same strip twice. Pitches should be designed for 5 days, not 10.

Farke couldn't beat that last season few managers did him easily with it

Hoping that more positive middle three will help us overcome that.

Remember the 92 World Cup Final Imran and Wasim with their ten inch long thumb nails to chop the seam to pieces :evil:

Never seen a ball move around like that 🤯

Cheating f**kers :x
It was crazy how much the ball moved. I don't remember Aaqib Javed having a notable career. But he was lightening that night.

Would a fallen Leeds player get this kind of respect at Bumall Lane?

No he wouldn’t

Not sure he's really the player to be doing that, would rather see him pulling the strings further forward

I was sickened that year. We were the best team of the tournament by a long way. Pakistan should have lost a group game and would have been eliminated but were saved by the rain. We were clear favourites for that one. And, just like 87, another big disappointment.

Aaronson and Tanaka looking very energetic.

We'll see how long they can keep it up.

Rothwell looked good getting forward last match and So has seemed neat, composed, and keeps the ball close--but I'd still rather see Amps.
