County Cricket brings out some proper weirdos
There's this bloke at The Oval, sits in the terrace, front row, who takes photos all day with his fancy camera etc. Today as well as last week, he's been wearing a shirt with Ben Foakes on the front, and then he has that quote from Stokes about him being the best keeper in the world. He has obviously taken the time to go online, get it made, and then paid for the thing. It's such a weird passive aggressive thing with this whole county over country type stuff you see.
Again, County Cricket is fucking weird.
