I have started a GO FUND ME PAGE to send Mr.Lidbit to Australia to open the batting for England, the man know around the WORLD as " The Master of the Crease " NEEDS to be there, because wot we have got there now is absolute, S***, sorry RUBBISH. I have thrown a buck in to start the ball rolling and highly encourage everyone else to donate a few hundred pounds each to the cause. There is a regular flight from Heathrow to Sydney, and a round trip ticket only costs about 1200 pounds and I am sure he will enjoy the 32 hour flight, plenty of time to stand in the isle and practice ducking the ball if he can get a flight attendant to toss him off spinners and leg breaks.
If everyone contributes by the weekend, he can be there for the test in Tassie which starts on the 14th of January.
I would have contributed more but I need to save a few hundred dollars incase a lonely someone wanted to fly to the US for a short break, nod nod wink wink .
