The Downright Donkeys 06/07 Team Thread

None of these poncy, footballer's wives, "my wallet is larger than my..." Bitters. :happy

But when you're measuring the thickness of both by feet rather than inches you must be doing something right

edit: bah, this thread has more pages than the one about that awesome brad guy

 

[GrayNicolls]

That Brad guy sounds a bit of a pansy. I would definitely be a downright donkey! It sounds right up my street! I'll also try to overstep on free hits too!

 

[tassietiger]

Sounds like you can throw matches with the best of them, but unfortunately, as you suspected, we do have to write down somewhere what skills you claim to have.

Player Style: Pure Batsman/Batting All-Rounder/Pure All-Rounder/Bowling All-Rounder/Pure Bowler
Batting Style: RHB/LHB
Bowling Style: Right Arm Pace/Right Arm Spin/Left Arm Pace/Left Arm Spin

There are generic averages that everyone gets to make the competition fair.

Also, that brad guy is a pansy. Good work on picking it up so quickly.

 

[GrayNicolls]

Player Style:Bowling all rounder
Batting Style:Left Hand Bat
Bowling Style: Right arm Fast (It goes wide when I bowl pace!)

I also match fix. I earn my money from that.

That's why the Donkeys are so financially stable. We don't have to pay salaries, because all of our players are receiving substantial payments through their 'side jobs'.

 

[GrayNicolls]

Yeah too right. Good old betfair.

 

[ZoraxDoom]

Betfair?
We all have personal bookies. Stupid, rich Americans who don't know what they are doing. We take their money, invest it, and give them a 'cut'. Keeps them happy as long as they don't know we are robbing them for millions.

Whoops, I think I said too much. I'll be quiet now...

 

[GrayNicolls]

Haha. Yes why would I have my personal bookies when betfair are a much bigger firm with more money!

 

[barmyarmy]

Sadly the odds on me doing badly are now too short for me to make any money so I have to try and run my teammates out instead.

 

[GrayNicolls]

Shall I fatten up then so it is easy for me to get run out?

No need, we've hired Inzi as our running coach.

Ooo. Harsh. But funny. When is our first match?

 

[ZoraxDoom]

Aug 17-21 Downright Donkeys vs Indian Warriors

Whaddya know, Day 3 is my Birthday Hopefully we will be done by Day 2, so that I can celebrate

 

[GrayNicolls]

Nah. I think we should just forfeit the match and go and have a pint to celebrate your birthday ZoraxDoom. I am on holiday for the match though. Shame. I'll have to throw away another match instead.

Hope you can celebrate it with a big score (anything above 2 is acceptable by our standards)

Anyway, who's got their advent calendar up?
