Damn that's sad news! Strangely, I was thinking about him last night. Strange cos I know nothing about and have no interest at all in cricket, but I did find Trueman's stories extremelhy entertaining. I'll be really pissed off when Harvey Smith pops it as well.

Surely Jimmy Saville should be popping off soon too?

I played cricket the other week against a Freddy acolyte, oldish trundler of slow-medium pace, every ball bang on the money, didn't get me out (indeed he got rather upset at me swatting him all over the park) but did get 7 wickets, and wore tatty trousers with tatty shirt unbuttoned from around the bellybutton up! 
, and was as yoikshire as you can get. Ace bloke, I thought immediately of him when I heard the sad news yesterday.
RIP Freddie. You've done your bit for the human race, thank you.

So do his Ashes get scattered at sea or do two teams play for them?
Did you hear that?
That was me getting my coat

My favorite Fred Story...........
Fred delivered a ball which the batsman managed to get an edge on, sending an easy catch towards a waiting fielder. The fielder un-explainably let this easy catch go through his legs. Embarrassed the fielder apologised.
"Sorry Fred I should have kept my legs closed".
"Aye, replied Fred, and so should your mother".
Wi'll be back after t'break wi American pool, al sithi
RIP legend.
