YOUR GREATEST SPORTING NIGHTMARE??
Well ....you gotta feel for the lad haven't ya!?
I really thought after the 5th wicket that England had somehow bowled their way back into winning the T20 final after posting a very mediocre score but then ....THAT happened... One Six...sure ....Two Sixes maybe ....but 4 ??....That was just ridiculous ??!!
And I'm not sure Stokes bowled THAT bad but sometimes you gotta just take your hat off to a great moment in Sport and say well done Mr Braithwaite! Although Mr Samuels another member of the Windies team didn't conduct himself with much graciousness post match you gotta love the way the Windies play this type of cricket ....and their dancing too.
Anyway Big Ben Stokes is going to take a little while I guess to get over this ...and let's hope he does for England's sake but it leads me to ask this QUESTION OF THE WEEK to you all... WHAT IS YOUR WORST EVER MEMORY IN YOUR SPORTING CAREER?.....And have you ever got over it yet??
RE: YOUR GREATEST SPORTING NIGHTMARE??
A cold Wednesday night March 2nd 1993.
Sheffield United 6 THFC 0
What a miserable cold night. Being laughed at by their fans and called a Cockney wenker. Then took what seemed an eternity to get home.
Closely followed by Everton 4 Spurs 1 1995 FA Cup semi final. Missed my own cup final to be there and set off at 7am to get there at 11 (Elland Road) for 12 noon kick off. Sat right next to the Everton fans in the Spurs end. Literally the last seat. Bloke in Everton end was so close I could touch him. He wanted to kill me. Left at 3-1 and got home about 8 pm as M1 was awful.
In 3rd place Notts County 3 Tottenham 0 26th October 1994. We had Teddy, Jurgen, Nick Barmby, Judas Campbell and the two Romanian World Cup stars Dumitrescu and Poescu. Dumitrescu got sent off before half time. Some fans turned on Ossie Ardilles and Spurs fans fighting because some people got the hump with others for turning on Ossie. We were already out of the FA Cup and had 6 points deducted for financial irregularities so it was bleaker than a shoal of Bleaks in the river in Bleak House. Bleaker I tell you
God I feel depressed now!
