Greatest British sporting comebacks or 'against all odds' victories 17:47 - Apr 19 with 1761 views

you can think of?

Top of my head (footballing-wise) there's Leicester winning the Prem, then Man U and Liverpool's comebacks in the Champions League (!999 and 2005 respectively). Any more football or other sporting ones you can think of?

	I bet Bloots will downarrow this.
Poll:	If you work in an office, when are you off over Christmas (not booked holiday)?

Don't forget the late Bob Willis at Headingly too. Botham is, to be fair, the first to stress this.

For sure. Botham turned the match on its head, but it was still a small total to defend, and after a slow start, Willis ripped them.

I’d forgotten the guy had passed. Loved his acerbic punditry in more recent days. A great guy.

	Trailing vapour since 1999.
Poll:	Should Gav and Phil limiti the number of polls?

Yes. I loved his favourite music too: Bob Dylan, Brahms and Wagner. Different - as Bob Willis was.
