Wow, the dross team I was supposed to play against tomorrow have been kicked out, presumably for having an inactive manager, and they've been replaced by a newbie - But not just any newbie, a super, uber newbie, with genetically modified players. Their squad, for a newbie, is hotter than Charlotte Church, in stilettos, stockings and a Swansea City shirt, covered in KFC's Original recipe coating, balancing a pint of Magners on her head, and seductively swinging the keys to an E-Type Jag from the end of one luridly red painted finger-nail.
They have one Strong, one Prof, three Resps, (one of whom, with wages of £1097, could be a Prof I suppose), and 5 - Count them! - 5! Comps. I'm actually really excited, as I've finally got a third league match which I'm going to have to PAN to win, and which might make it past my lunch-break!
Needless to say, plans for my entire top six to go V.Attacking in the relentless pursuit of NRR have been shelved, and we shall be playing with a full team and default, proper opposition, orders.
Check them out, they're called Ozza, in V.76 - Bring'um on!! Though on a serious note, I think Alan might be indulging in a bit of social engineering, as the overall standard of my league is absolutely pitiful - And once I'm promoted, there will be literally no opposition to Dragnets whatsoever.
Who was it who was asking about LM/RM bowlers? My best bowler, in terms of skill levels, is LM Bewers, who'll turn Sup in the next few weeks. He takes fewer wickets against dross than both of my high Resp RFMs, but does do better against tidy opposition, and has an economy rate of around three or just under. Although it's hard to tell whether this is due to his Lmness, or his Steady temperament.
