*Official* English Domestic Season (2004)

[chris.hinton]

moving on from my weather forcasts, It is C and G trophy day on Wednesday who do you think will go though

 

[Neil Pickup]

The obvious banana skins are Devon v Leicestershire, Holland v Gloucs and Lincs v Glamorgan.

Ireland v Surrey might be interesting, and I'd back Somerset to see off Derbyshire.

If I didn't have lectures all morning I'd go down to see the Devon game

 

[Craig]

I will laugh hard if Devon, Holland, and Lincolnshire win.

 

[chris.hinton]

Hopefuklly the weather will be ok, but i hope Worcester go though as Herefordshire beat Middlesex two years ago, and now they have Franklyn Rose, Aravinda de Sliva it will be a hard task

 

[marc71178]

Have they really signed those 2?

First I've heard of it.

 

[Neil Pickup]

I'd guess they're playing club cricket in Herefordshire - and Minor Counties are allowed two overseas players, like the FC sides.

 

[chris.hinton]

Rose is playing in the Lancashire league whilwe de sliva is just playing in the Minor Counties

 

[chris.hinton]

essex and warwick has started. and it is 5-1 Nick Knight excellently ran out Big man Jefferson

 

[marc71178]

2 minutes after I put an a pair of singles and a double.

Jefferson to be first out, and the wicket not to be caught

 

[chris.hinton]

Warwickshire lost by 6 runs Yorkshire also won beating Scotland and Glamorgan defected Northants

 

[Langeveldt]

Yep Somerset should see off *cough Europe *cough* sorry Derbyshire pretty comfortably...

 

[marc71178]

Warwickshire lost by 6 runs

And I had Essex at 6-4 after they batted for 10 overs

 

[Langeveldt]

Damnit Hinton, I had that match taped

 

[Tom Halsey]

Lovely win, the boys.

 

[Tom Halsey]

And I had Essex at 6-4 after they batted for 10 overs

Good to see, people really should back Essex more often.

 

[Langeveldt]

Good to see, people really should back Essex more often.

Hahah.. one win and the boy is full of it...

 

[marc71178]

Good to see, people really should back Essex more often.

It was a 10 over slog in gathering gloom, only a fool would back the side chasing.

 

[Craig]

Is Ottis Gibson playing under that Kolpak law or on a EU Passport for Leicestershire or has he qualifyied through residency? Because I notice him playing for them, along with Mark Cleary and Brad Hodge who are Australian.

And really I ask what is the point in having a 10 over match? It mades no real sense to me unless it is for money...

 

[chris.hinton]

It was a 10 over slog in gathering gloom, only a fool would back the side chasing.

Warwick won the toss
