A subtle change has been made to the comments links, so they no longer pop up. Does this in any way help with the problem about comments not appearing on permalinked posts, readers?

Really? Middle class people watching cricket in the Southeast of England? Do you think it could happen in our lifetimes? In God's name, if not the prosperous urban middle classes, who the hell does he think has been watching cricket all these years? I have been told to my face during our lean years that the inexorable decline of English cricket was a result of Thatcher having sold off all the school playgrounds so "it's all full of these public schoolboys these days", which was pretty fucking ridiculous, but never have I seen anyone try to get away with suggesting that the chattering classes don't really like cricket. In any case it is pretty much impossible to be anything other than a "fair-weather fan" of cricket since they stop playing for rain or bad light. Fair weather is pretty much all there is to it. 0 comments this item posted by the management 9/14/2005 07:29:00 AM
