I heard Andrew Strauss say on the radio that he thought the quasi - professionalism creeping into recreational cricket is a bit sad. I'm inclined to agree with him.

Great to read all this.

I am indeed captain of this lot, it's good to see them still continuing the high levels I set even when away!

Was texting Nick last night saying it has been nice to watch how you've helped turn Ashorne around to a thriving and hopefully successful club

Sometimes I wish we would all turn up 1.5 hours early to net/warm up etc. I'd be all for it, I'm a bit OCD with my prep so I'm usually the first guy at the ground, but only ever 45 mins before kick-off since that's when the groundsman rocks up to open up. But then a fair few of our lot have got kids to sort/hangovers to recover from etc, so we still get them rolling in as we're tossing up.

Plus, after watching the oppo warm up for an hour to be bowled out for 60, kind of makes you wonder if there's much point at our level.

And which forum member (who got me caught out by another forum member) looks great in a bib when tossing up?




Good Lord!!  It looks like the Walking School Bus is missing one of it's passengers - or alternatively, they've finally introduced Health & Safety into Hobbiton.

Probably just as well it's not a running school bus? The fella doesn't look like he's very fit!

Thank you mate, that means a lot! It was always my main aim to make us more of a successful club on and off the pitch. 2 of my recruits to the club have been amazing and really helped. I'm not name dropping as they'll read this lol
