The Black Thread

Quite disappointed that I seem to be the only one Black hasn't approached to sign tbh. Feel left out.

Law will probably be declared inactive. She's flakey, that one

 

[superkingdave]

Maybe she'd be more active if you joined her at Blacks?

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Blackman won't count as a squad player next season.

Unless his penalty is reduced, that is.

Thanks for the info.

Make her active, big fella.

Or at least follow Dave's advice.

I think we've got enough spinners as is though. Neil, Dav and Richards are guns. Great to have Gerard on board as well, absolute gun for Blue in OD last season and it's good to be in the same team as him again.

Past experience suggests otherwise...

I'm sure I'd care what you had to say if you were were a member of Black or were a person that demanded some respect. Unofrtunately I can't.

Didn't say I'd have come, but a word would have been nice.

Funny that I don't get respect when I was included on the recent discussions regarding the suspensions isn't it...

I'd love to know what you were doing on it then. You hold absolutely no position of power yet was consulted by the panel of "authorities" in making the decision? That's actaully very interesting, as I'd love to find out what right you had in making that decision. Perhaps it makes the outcome of the discussions quite shady.

 

[Nate]

Oh no, my nuts.

 

[Cloete]

Looking forward to the season. Hopefully new faces and old heads can continue the recent success of Black on the field.

Welcome mate. Good to have you around.

We've got a pretty impressive team assembled now, maybe a batsman shy. But our bowling attack is excellent and the vast number of all-rounders we have gives us heaps of depth. Should be a good season.

rumours suggest that a certain red allrounder likes to email the PA officer over the smallest things

 

[ash chaulk]

welcome goughy and armstrong

Dave twice as gun as Neil?

Clearly I am considered someone with an amount of common sense and experience to be involved in discussions.

However, to suggest that me being involved in discussions are the reason for the length of the bands is quite frankly extremely insulting to both me and the others who were involved - since you're suggesting that everyone else involved just decided to have no input themselves and take what I said...

 

[marc71178]

Rumours would be completely wrong, since I was approached by the people discussing it for my opinion, not the other way round.

Funny how all the people slinging mud weren't isn't it...

Stop finishing sentences with "...."

[pasag]

Very, very happy with the two signings. Black will be a force next season and I can't wait to stick it to those who have been laughing at the supposed downfall of the club.

Indeed.

Marc was one a longstanding Dev League captain and stood in in the absence of Dave Watt.

Pretty big words for a (Black) rookie.
