Yeh, my thoughts exactly, talkSAFT - however I'm an old fart too!
I remember getting picked for our school cricket First XI for the first time in about 1971, and the cricket 'master ' (as we called him) had arranged ONE Saturday game in the whole season - on FA Cup Final day. He said he couldn't make me play but if I didn't, he'd never pick me again.
I loved cricket but watching the final live was, as you say, a real must so I said no.
That was the end of my school cricket career!
Probably won't even bother to watch any highlights today.....
