Re: Hows that not a penalty

If fatty Moss saw that at Old Trafford, Anfield, Emirates, Etihad etc, it's a penalty for the home team, no doubt about it.

Re: England vs West Indies 3rd Test (Manchester)

Pope looks a very good batsman to me. I would be tempted to play him at number 5 in front of Stokes, with a longer term view of him playing at our problem position at number 3. He's just got his 50 in 77 deliveries.
