Ljubljana's own Chris "Phantom" Bishop vs Bill "Slogger" Lawry.

The nose, the mouth, the chin, the wispy hair, the forehead, the being a Victorian. However to be fair to our "Slog" no-one would ever call him "the corpse with pads" and I think it's fair to say Bill Lawry never came in after being dismissed muttering "****. I was just trying to lob it, I should have ****ing launched it!"

Our own Urban Blaznik seems to have been moonlighting as a Croatian tennis star.

F**k me, excellent look-a-likage. The only thing is that Lawry's got more hair....

Dear Sir,


has anybody noticed the similarity of one of children's TV best known characters and that of our very own underpant flaunting Donchster?


Yours,


The Treasurer

The rudeness, the arrogance, the Pommy bashing. It could only be from one man. Welcome to the forum, Mr leading toothpaste salesman

As we said...The rudeness, the arrogance, the Pommy bashing. It could only be from one man...

Plus we don't know anyone else lurking about in the land of Chocolate, Watches and Expensive Mountain Railways....

Go on then. Your cover is blown. Join the forum!

Austrian cricket "Oberherr", and forum member Mike "Statto" Bailey does a passable Andrew Strauss impersonation.

He even sounds a bit like him.

Ok this one may stretch the lookalike idea a bit far, but the eyes and glazed vacant stares of the three cricketers here show some similarity. Messrs Andrew Flintoff, Steve Fish and Al Green after drinking for their countries.

Forget "Five guys named Moe" - here's "Two guys named Bell" and to my mind there is a bit of a lookalike thing going on. Forum member and "someone who played cricket around Eastern Europe on a Psychic's advice" and a member of England's 5 nil losing Ashes campaign. I give you Angus JJ + Ian R Bell.

I was on the unlucky 87th post so I thought I'd better get onto 88 really quickly, so I copied this one.

Was looking for a good picture of our own Tom Furness to upload in a lookalike post.

Foolishly, he has previously made me aware of a site I can find his pic in. I found this one.
As for the lookalike part, I'll leave that to other forum members.

I thought Tom Chaplin was much more fat! In fact he's a striking clone of one of my mates back in the UK.


The closest looking bloke to me is some Czech chatshow host that Sharka Fish pointed out to me once. True spitting image. No idea what his name is anymore though

All I can say is that the picture of you 5 posts above makes my mullet pic (see the Cricketers with mullets thread) look cultured and fashionable.

!!!!!! Mate, I knew you only had 1 eye, but I didn't know it worked as well as an Italian in a particularily lazy mood.


It's no mullet either. It seems I was a little more advanced than you, last wearing one, as I did, when I was 5, not 15 years later

Getting up at 5:30am this morning to watch some live sport, it didn't take me long to realise a lookalike for not just one person but a whole group of 11 men. Just 1 steaming substance provides all that is necessary to be a remarkable lookalike.

England owe me 2 hours sleep.

Yours,

The Treasurer 


 I have a few simple questions for any lookalike of mine to ensure they are up to the job of carrying my moniker:

1 - What would you say to a guy who has just lost his job?    (a) You'll be fine, you'll get another job    (b) Can I buy you a beer    (c) Look on the bright side, I still have a job!2 - If you heard that some guy was shagging another guy would you say    (a) That's distgusting    (b) How could you do that?    (c) You're only gay if you are receiving.
3 - You are in a bar, and you ask a girl if she finds you attractive, she answers NO. Do you:    (a) Walk away    (b) Make small talk and put it behind you    (c) Buy her another drink and ask her again.

At least Andrew Flintoff can safely know that his music career is doing well even if his cricket team is struggling. Here he grabs the microphone for Coldplay, while Chris Martin pops in for a bowl for England.

Then there's a spot for an ex-Christian at No. 4, but for who?

And at No. 5, it’s the captain, elder statesmen and well-known Canadian aloo salesman:

  A good idea. And maybe the right place to ask. Why does Jon Lewis remind me of Hugh Grant? They don't really look very similar, there's just something about them?

That they both can't bowl perhaps? Who knows?
