Title: Time for fireworks in Chelmsford's finest drinking holes
Post by: fasteddie on April 22, 2014, 02:02:20 PM
As someone who lived in Chelmsford for many years, he will find a good selection of drinking dens to quench his thirst.

He will soon discover the legend that in as 'Essex girl'.

Happy days are here again.

As a current Chelmsfordian who can see the county ground from his office. I fully intend to put in some late evenings and play 'Spot the Staggering Jesse' down the street. As well as trying to follow him (and probably Monty) into town like a lost little labrador.

On a serious note, whilst i think he's a really good player and in cricket terms a great multi-format signing, you really have to question if its a great idea to have him as a person around the place as an influence to the other players, especially in his elevated status as 'Overseas Player'

In which case he could end up as more of an 'Overseas Playaaaaa'

Could be either
A) an inspired signing
B) A regular at A&E

Imagine him and Napier batting at full tilt!

He's made some mistakes but there is no doubting he's got a talent. Yes he could lead people astray and potentially let himself down but what if he applies himself? He could help demonstrate the advice of don't follow in my footsteps etc

I like that Essex have given him a chance as if nothing else, it will improve their side.

Due to New Zealand and ipl shunning him. It's a great signing.

He can perform all formats. But will be a godsend in the flt20. Dud can hit a ball!



Probably make Essex a lively night out too! Just hope he stays out of "hospital" trouble.

i reckon he will be a good signing for them. averaging over 40 in tests.

if essex managed with danesh kaneria as their overseas player for a few years jesse ryder might seem like a good influence

I genuinely don't think he'll lead people astray - most of his issues in the last couple of years have been of the YArdy ilk or a result of Kiwi Chavs seeing him as an easy target for a spot of bother.

Well yes - and there'll be none of those types in Chelmsford!
