jamesthehorse Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 Reel Events is pleased to announce Dickie Bird will be attending Sportsmania on Saturday 24th May Dickie umpired his first county game in 1970. Three years later he officiated at his first Test match (England v New Zealand at Headingley, Leeds). One of his strengths was that he was able to manage and earn the respect of some of the more volatile players in the game, sometimes by using his infectious humour. He was also known as being eccentric, famously arriving at a ground five hours early as the Queen was to visit that day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TommyT Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 Think you will find this announcement was not made on here by SM True, but one assumes that it was pinned either by SM or one of their mods, suggesting that in this case James The Horse's post isn't full of "horsehockey" (to borrow a phrase from Col Sherman T. Potter). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
