I have never mentioned Cowdrey or Pringle or Vaughan so how can I change the subject and imply that I never meant this, and as for covering up the fact where Bresnan was brought up, it is not the issue and never has been,
read my post where I said he came from Ponty not Cas that is the issue, but for some reason you want to cloud it by saying he comes from Cas which in effect means he never left there in the first place.
I know it wasn't you that brought them up, but you are changing the subject. Can I remind you again?

Thought they all talked like that from Pontefract.
So are you trying to tell us that people from Pontefract talk the same as people from Castleford? Or that the way a person speaks is down to where they're BORN and not where they're BROUGHT UP?

I'm not getting uptight at all I merely offered to defuse your

even the pathetic attempt to ridicule me by implying that it was a hilarious joke that somehow went over my head with it being too subtle for my intelligence, so I'm going to take your advice and go and have a lie down your too much hard work
There was no embarrassment on my part. All my friends will tell you that I only ever do throwaway gags like that (and can you come up with a quote where I've implied it was hilarious?). Still, I do seem to have hit a raw nerve somewhere with the Barnsley comment. Would you like me to offer a retraction?
