40% of our team use Bulldog kit! Saw a guy all kitted out in Ian Wills kit, and some old school Ayrtek kit on saturday.

Not surprising given their location... Don't know if it's still the case but there were a couple of sports shops in Portsmouth and Southampton that used to give a decent discount to local clubs (including ours) and who stocked a lot of chase gear. We had a fair old number of users.

Holt and Haskell gave large discount on their own stuff.

Played against a guy the other week in Surrey Championship Division Two, and a number 9, walked in with a Joker, Vulcan gloves from like 2011, Vantage Volt Pads and an Ayrtek Premier... He was quite cocky earlier on in the field... And ironically first ball sprinted down the track, played and miss, I took an easy stumping, so he then called me a (No Swearing Please), and marched off...
All The Gear No Idea ;)

I reckon that's gotta be someone on here!

Been informed that a  guy playing in our league is using a blueroom bat with bulldog softs. Must be a forumite. I was shocked he Didnt get the bat from me more than anything haha.

I've seen a definite laminate in a friendly game this year.

Umpired a guy using a Mongoose last week, he didn't make many runs, 3 or 4 I think.....I've yet to see anyone make runs with one other than on TV.

I've also seen an older Fusion that is being used to good effect but pretty much held together by tape and a guy using a Redback, although he only has one because he asked me how to get hold of a Redback after seeing mine in action.

Nothing that good today, bats were all big brands. Someone did have some Morrant Ultralite International pads though, but that was it

I popped up to watch our first team today, there was a good looking shark bat in the oppo.

No. 3 or 4 batsman for the opposition today with a lovely looking Laver but ... out first ball as he sweetly hit straight to mid-off... sounded nice though...

I managed to 'bruise the toe'  as one of my team mates called it on my Hell 4 Leather 666 (Hattori stickered) in it's first outing with me... hit 23 but I'm a bit concerned... 3nd bat this season to be damaged this way...
