    Shocking accident. Apparently the second time it's ever happened in a cricket match.

    I had seen the video a day or two ago of it happening and it's a horrible watch. Very sad to hear he's passed away. Very talented cricketer.

    I am amazed it didn't happen a lot more when the players didn't wear helmets. I still play a bit at a very low level and many players go out to bat without a helmet on fairly ropey pitches. At least possibility of losing teeth or broken nose or worse...

    I'd like to say a fond farewell to 2cm of vas deferens. They worked hard in their lifetime but their time had come. May they rest in peace.

    Less vas deferens makes a vast difference. I'll ring in a radio request for you, Adam - First Cut is the Deepest or Nutbush City Limits. The ball's in your <ahem> you decide.

    In all seriousness, hope all went well and the recovery is quick.

    Jeremy Thorpe who resigned as Liberal Party leader in the UK in the 1970s after allegations of an affair with a former male model, Norman Scott, and was rumoured to have planned to murder him.

    Amazing how someone so much in the limelight for a couple of decades can disappear without trace only to reappear when their death is announced. No fear of that happening to Roy Keane.

    Self-serving gob****e of the highest order and a symbol of everything wrong with Irish politics. I won't either.

    Hereford United. Wound up http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-h...ester-30561892 as unable to pay its debts. Those of a certain vintage will remember them knocking Newcastle United out of the FA Cup (when it meant something) in the early 1970s.

    Always seems to be the way. There was a hoax news story about Robin Williams about a week before he died too if I recall right.
