Trump giving a press conference about the impending hurricane being one of the worst we have ever seen.

Trump denying Climate change is real, and man made, and refusing to sign the climate treaty.

Go figure!

After Eoin Morgan scored 45 runs in his 10 most recent County Championship innings and was more miss than hit during Middlesex’s Twenty20 campaign in 2018 (his 11 innings included scores of 90 and 77*, but just 92 runs in his 9 other innings), Lower Mound feels it is an oxymoron for Russel Arnold, Rob Key and Vikram Solanki to have all described Eoin Morgan as being “in the form of his life”. However, if they just into account Morgan’s form during England's tour of Sri Lanka, I can see why they have this view, as his scores beginning with his first warm-up appearance have so far been 91*, 14*, 92 and 58*.

If only "President Trump" HAD stayed an oxymoron....

I know there is a separate thread but David Warner walking off as a protest against sledging surely deserves an entry here.

As does Julian Assange suing the Ecuadorian embassy for depriving him of human rights. Just walk out of the door, mate.

Trump's crocodile tears about nasty politics also a contender?

Slightly off topic reply,and I apologise to the moderators for this....
The times St John's Wood station is closed,is usually after a game.Not actually closed,but used for crowd control,as platforms get very crowded and staggered crowd movement for health and safety reasons.This practice is used over the whole underground network when needed to be put in place.
Please look into facts before putting things that are not true!

I respect your reply but this has happened in the past. I once attended a t20 World Cup Final at Lord's between Pakistan and Sri Lanka. It caused absolute chaos.

Ee could not leave by the Grace Gates due to a Tamil demonstration being dealt with. There were issues with leaving by the North and East Gates as well. You are welcome to check the facts but it is sometimes inconvenient not having St. John's Wood Station available.

The major occasion that I was recalling was on Sunday 21st June 2009.It happened and I am not prepared to rewrite history.
