@AskNationwide Would love to but your app is down. I’m in the midst of a switch and already regretting it. You’re not a serious bank.

[Christopher Freeman @cmdfreeman]

@AskNationwide Now the banking app is down. You need to come clean with people. This is totally unacceptable.

[Christopher Freeman @cmdfreeman]

@AskNationwide Are you absolutely sure all your systems are working perfectly? I’ve been waiting over 90 minutes for a simple bank transfer…..

[Christopher Freeman @cmdfreeman]

@AskNationwide @Mollylou1988 Similar problem. Money transfer to another bank says it’s worked but over 90 minutes later hasn’t arrived. Something definitely wrong.

@WG_RumblePants @willis_macp With this mob it's all about whether your face fits, talent and form are down the list. Downing pints and dodging punches also considered preferable.

[Christopher Freeman @cmdfreeman]

@ErikaMorris79 @cric_blog Poor behaviour (again), blatantly unprofessional and lousy leadership. Quite apart from that, he's barely contributing anything to this team right now.

[Christopher Freeman @cmdfreeman]

@WG_RumblePants In any other business, he'd be fired. If he was coming off a 4-1 series win and the team had barely changed, it might be OK....but (check notes), it's quite the opposite.

@legsidelizzy Despite everything it's still Twitter. (I refuse to call it X).

@WG_RumblePants Mole = Rahul Dravid; Rat = Kane Williamson; Badger = Jimmy Anderson; Toad = Rishabh Pant

[Christopher Freeman @cmdfreeman]

@WG_RumblePants In a way it's a win for Sooryavanshi. To see someone reacting like that to a wicket shows how much he's got in to the bowler's head. Jamieson should've just celebrated as normal, like it was nothing special getting him out. Maybe not an asshole, just a spur of the moment error.

@weymarplanet (3) What do I miss the most? The county championship being the core “product”, the pot the players most coveted, and just being able to pitch up at a match and get in.

[Christopher Freeman @cmdfreeman]

@weymarplanet (2) That summer I sat under cover and listened to local old Caribbean dudes taking about the 3 Ws, Sovers and Constantine. It was an education. I saw Gavasksr score a double ton in a test, Jackman take 8-58. You could shoot pretty much anywhere you want.

[Christopher Freeman @cmdfreeman]

@weymarplanet Yes, it’s as appealing even in a time when there are fewer English superstars. My parents bought me a Surrey season ticket when I was 13, it was the Roger Knight/Jackman/Alan Butcher/Intikhab Alam/Sylvester Clarke side. Very entertaining. The Oval was a welcoming melting pot. (1)

[Christopher Freeman @cmdfreeman]

@WG_RumblePants More of a snood. Shame, I’d like to see cravats make a solid comeback.

[Christopher Freeman @cmdfreeman]

@JamieMagill5 @cas_rasen Absolutely. Post ‘85, Pietersen is the first name on the team sheet.

[Christopher Freeman @cmdfreeman]

@JamieMagill5 Someone with the cojones to put KP in the team. He has to be. I mean, does anyone think Broad (just for starters) was easy to get on with.

[Christopher Freeman @cmdfreeman]

@WG_RumblePants @YahoooverCC Yes, and we want them all on together like The Man Who Fell To Earth!

[Christopher Freeman @cmdfreeman]

@Yas_Wisden @WG_RumblePants It's actually really odd that Sussex has won two matches, whereas Surrey has drawn both, yet Sussex's lead over Surrey is just 4 points. (This from a Surrey supporter).

[WG RumblePants @WG_RumblePants]

Hello fellow Surrey CCC members! If you love our club as much as I do, I can’t recommend highly enough that you cast your vote for Kim Barlow to be on the General Committee.

She is genuinely one of our own, couldn’t love the club more and — most importantly — she will be your voice on the GC and fight hard for members’ interests. She is a passionate county cricket supporter and an all round good egg.

Please vote for Kim Barlow. She has my vote 🤎

[Christopher Freeman @cmdfreeman]

@Glazgow @WG_RumblePants Love that...Jagger, excellent shout!
