Yeah they were shite. Even the coach couldn't be arsed with it. Putting a woefully out of form Bopara at 3 was just fooking daft.

I had to chuckle when I saw in the paper this morning that Australia is third bottom on the world rankings for T20 - equal with Ireland and above Zimbabwe. Whilst I was aware that the Aussies are no good at the twenty over game, that really brought it home.

Did they give Coyle a go or summat? Don't really follow the county game but champions to relegation within a season really wants some doing.jaffka wrote:Lancashire relegated, that is a disgrace.

Usual probmem for Lancs ... & maybe why it took them 77 years to win it till last year, the weather.Bruce Rioja wrote:Did they give Coyle a go or summat?

I'm not sure they actually completed any full 4 day matches.
... you know though, I'd take it. After 77 years last year was so good & you do know they'll return, it being a league of ony 9 teams or so.

Enjoyed seeing Buttler tear Parnell a new one just then. Second most expensive over in t20 history

He could have been in three and anyway, I don't think he held down his place for long.bobo the clown wrote:Open ? Open !!Little Green Man wrote:Shame. I seem to recall he used to open for my Owzat team.

While it was an invitational XI there was no qualification through residency so, if you're referring to Sir Clive, he wasn't eligible. I think Wood got a few games though.
First name on the teamsheet was always Derek Randall.

I can recall a commentator once announcing Graham Lloyd as being the son of Clive...
