I am completely with Wisden on this. If you are ever watching a Test match on TV and you see three blokes resolutely staying in their seats as a Mexican wave goes round the ground, it will probably be Colin, Roger and me. If you then observe the same three blokes muttering obscenities to themselves and to the people standing up in front of them, it will almost certainly be us. The use of the verb ‘muttering’ is important. The obscenities will be loud enough for us to hear but not quite loud enough for the people in front to detect what we are actually saying.

Colin, Roger and I are in what increasingly seems to be a minority these days. We go to a Test match mainly to watch the cricket. Perverse possibly, but true. If I wanted to jump up and down in the air with lots of people I don’t know, then I would join an aerobics class.

For completeness, I would also like to make it clear that I don’t go to Test matches in fancy dress (unless jeans and blue denim shirt count) and I’m not a great fan of the Barmy Army either. Why would you go to a cricket match and want to listen to this sung over and over and over again? Everywhere we go

Everywhere we go

The people want to know

The people want to know Who we are

Who we are

Where we come from

Where we come from

Shall we tell them

Shall we tell them

Who we arez

Who we are

Etc etc
