Hero to Zero and Back Again

14th March 2008

Is Jimmy Anderson really Superman after all lol?




I bet Ryan Sidebottom and Jimmy would like to swop a bit of each other's lives yeah.

Jimmy had like too much recognition when he was very young and inexperienced yeah and was being hailed on all sides as the great new talent blah blah. Except he didn't really know all that much and things went wrong for him *sigh* resulting in years in that well-known wilderness where like people go that experts have decided are no good after all :( And he got injured too.

While nobody took any notice of Ryan at all yeah and he like slogged away for his county and concentrated on growing his hair for what as they say must have seemed like an eternity. And no doubt he was well pissed off right in a quiet way when other people got picked for the Test side right and he was called things like county trundler duh. When in fact yeah he's very good.

So one got like too much publicity and the other not enough.

Anyway now they are both in the England side where they belong if you ask me and Jimmy has taken 5 New Zealand wickets yeah and there is a lot of jumping about and saying hooray and hurrah.




They seem like a good team :)) and with the lovely Stuart (see February) and the one and only Monty yeah we may have a new bowling attack fingers crossed touch wood and don't tread on the cracks in the pavement.

Or Jimmy may screw it up again *sigh* don't let's say that though cos it would be like cruel in his moment of triumph.

Don't you just love Ryan? The kind of guy you need around when the chips are down.

And the photographers must thank Dog for him, that hair makes for some great pics!
