Glossary Update

I am shocked that "Nice tits Red", didn't get the nod.

That's a fair call, taips. Frommie, I'll second taips' vote for that entry.

On reading this i was tempted to call smerkle a bitter twisted little welsh freak, but on rethinking it, welsh says it all . . .

Problem, taccy?

duckbuttered canteen ladies, the lot of you . . .

That's the spirit, Smerks.

A few not in there:

TAYne POCson (n) Aussie injury-prone bits-and-pieces man Shane Watson. See "TAYPOC", do not see "Test quality opening batsman" or "Test quality bowler".

Bage (n) What is bowled by James Anderson when the ball doesn't swing, or he is in one of his phases of crapness (see "Anderson Cycle"). Abbreviation of "garbage", but pronounced rather like the colour "beige".

Yarpom (n) A South African-born England player (see Yarpie, Pom). This species has been in existence for some decades but has been spotted with increasing frequency in recent years, particularly in T20 cricket.

Hello Everyone

I have added all suggestions so far in this thread.

I have noticed the acronym HTB used regularly in threads featuring India and Sri Lanka. I would like to include it. Does it stand for Hard Track Bully or Highway Track Bully, or something else?

And who are the best players to use it in reference to?

Regards

Fromage

Home Track Bully

Thankyou tac.

Fromage

Thanks smeggy

Just a thought .... could the glossary be lightened by cutting references to players off the international scene (or never on it) for the past decade or more?

Past international captains might be the exception, as they are still occasionally in currency.

On that last point, I can't understand how "AB" isn't in the list.
