Serving at tennis and doing that sort of flash, whippet throwing thing in cricket fvcked my shoulder. These days, I can throw a couple of balls, but then my shoulder will go, leaving my arm numb, weak and tingling and I’ll have to go into the slips.
David Gower has the same thing, I believe.
I was lucky, b. I never had a 'good arm' so I got to spend the majority of my time in the slips. Great fun and hardly any running.

I should clarify before the RSPCA get on my case that I've never actually thrown a whippet.

Indeed. The banter is lovely in the slips. The only downside is when the fvcking thing comes flying at you and you're expected to catch it.

Catching and throwing is the only things I was really good at, cricket-wise :-\

Weighing up a steroid injection but I hear they are rather hit and miss.
Sounds like you need a shot off mtfu.
