From the moment they arrive to the moment they leave they should experience nothing but pant-crapping terror at the thought they might be exposed for the lying mountebanks they really are.<br /><br />And so what if Paxo is more subtle than Nolan? That just makes the game even more fun. <br /><br />To steal an analogy from cricket: A good skipper varies his bowling lineup, making his opponents face a bewildering onslaught from a spread of brutal fast bowlers, cunning spinners and deceptive middle pacers.<br /><br />We need Paxmen AND Nolans, it's just a shame the broadcasters don't have more of them and only let the few they have out of their boxes occasionally.The Remittance Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13104149259707414863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6214838.post-10895317547068417272010-04-25T21:03:49.708+01:002010-04-25T21:03:49.708+01:00Oh God this was absolutely brilliant.
