I popped into McCambridgeâs of Shop Street earlier to buy an Oxford Lunch. Iâm going to devour it now in the same way our chaps devoured their opponents on the Thames.
Fantastic analytica from Coach Trapmore. After an unfortunate week, the Cambridge name has been well and truly restored to glory
With the blue riband event of horse racing out of the way, the focus switches to the 4.2 mile stretch along the Thames from Putney to Mortlake tomorrow afternoon. Its all about James Cracknell for this yearâs renewal.
On a Sunday ??
The very best time of the year. The Peopleâs Race and the Boat Race. What more could anybody ask for in a single weekend of sport.
Caused his divorce apparently, or at least was the final straw. He is trying to get into a boat to row at the Olympics, and was told to get in the boat race crew and heâd be considered.
The brain injury canât have helped either. A good example of a fella not knowing what to do with himself after being a sportsman for so long.
No it didnât, not at all.
Informative.
The Boat Race on a Sunday dosent sit easy with me
We really are entering a period of a few slow Sundays now after the drama of the Leagues and such was the fixture congestion various mouth watering and or extremely attractive double headers had to be played on a Saturday to clear the boards
The GAA season has now been cancelled until may and it regrets me to say that todayâs FA Cup Semi Final dosent fill me with inspiration at all ( and i regret typing that)
Even MOTD last night - whilst i enjoyed the 3 games as Burnley are box office had a horrific panel of Gabby Yorath, Paul Ince and some other token woman
its difficult for me
I hope April can pick up but i foresee Sunday Sport been a lost zone for a few weeks
The boat race is unremitting dross.
Whoâs on the Middlesex and Surrey stations?
Some Mick in a provincial, post industrial shithole in northern England wouldnât understand the importance and tradition of this great sporting and cultural event .
Homeless people out of their minds on spice attacking the police all around Manchester city centre. No wonder heâs always crying about going back to Ireland in all fairness. I donât know how any could live there
A solid win for us. Iâm very satisfied with that.
Youâre absolutely right there bud.
