Lord Jimmy of Burnley should have taken his seat in the House of Lords and let Gus get his 8 for. He had to make do with the best bowling figures on debut for any Englishman, but he could have knocked another dead fat Cheatin’ Ozzie off his perch for best Test debut ever when he got 8 for on debut in 1895 - he woz high on his mum’s diet pills too, I reckon.
Barmy Army just need a Gus Atkinson song now… Oh Gus Gus, Gus Gus Gus Gus At-kin-son…. No, needs some work….
