    [Cricket] The Ashes- England v Australia- 3rd Test, Headingley, July 06-10, 2023

    I wonder how many runs that has cost us.

    [Football] The Non-League Football Thread- 2023/24 Edition

    They have made some excellent signings for the level they're playing at, but they have almost replaced the whole team barring 2 or 3 players. Mark Beard has a big job on his hands but if he gets them all playing, it could be a very good year.

    [Albion] Threads - New Twitter competitor by Meta (Instagram/Facebook)

    Yes, due to big privacy concerns. It's due to the Digital Markets Act on digital competition, which stops large tech companies from combining data from different services.

    [Cricket] The Ashes- England v Australia- 3rd Test, Headingley, July 06-10, 2023

    If anyone can't wait for cricket action this morning, the Scots are against The Netherlands for a place in the final. A win guarantees Scotland a place in the world cup. The Dutch need to chase whatever Scotland get within 44 overs, so should be an entertaining finish. A real shame that the ICC...

    Should be interesting for EBFC. The new owner (as they all do) is saying the right things and the new kits by Errea are very nice. Got a big sponsor too for the level they're playing at. Ex Albion Yasir Kasim has also just signed for them.

    [Albion] Jan Paul van Hecke - contracted to June 2027

    I wonder if a loan to PSV is still on the cards despite the new contract. Braithwaite going back to PSV is highly unlikely and if they do those Ramalho as well, PSV will have lost both their first choice centre backs.

    Done. Fond memories of Eastbourne Borough drawing 1-1 at home in the FA Cup in 2005 as a youngster. Yemi Odubade was signed soon after by you.

    [Albion] Kjell Scherpen - Albion in talks with Ajax Goalkeeper (Signed 16/07/2021)

    Looks like he's going on loan to Sturm Graz in Austria. I think his time is probably up. https://www.ad.nl/nederlands-voetbal/kjell-scherpen-staat-komend-seizoen-onder-de-lat-in-oostenrijk~add50a33/

    [Cricket] The Ashes- England v Australia- 2nd Test, Lords, June 28 - July 02, 2023

    Yep, the Dutch have absolutely thrown it away. Still impressive considering 8 players are missing due to county commitments and injury.

    Apparently just bowl short and make us inexplicably play every ball and they'll be fine.

    [Cricket] The Ashes- England v Australia- 2nd Test, Lords, June 28 - July 02, 2023

    Just lost another one now. They can actually all bat a bit. Think the NRR was in the back of their minds so some silly shots were being played, but just need to relax and take the singles. Logan van Beek the hero of the super over is in now.

    In other news, Sri Lanka are struggling against The Netherlands. They managed to get back to a target of 214 and The Netherlands have had a couple of ducks (and a horrendous run out). Currently 126-4 with just under 30 overs to go.

    I would love this just for the pure absolute meltdown Palace fans would have. Never happening in a million years, but it would be hilarious.

    Had some fairly easy ones until Josef Bican ruined it. I scored 1️⃣5️⃣ on STATTOGORIES Football: Who Scored More Goals Game. How will you score? https://www.stattogories.com/football/club-goals.html

    [Cricket] Sussex CCC - 2023 Season Edition

    Great for Dutch Cricket, these wins are really starting to build momentum over here. It does help that NL now picks players who are eligible to play through heritage rather than just Dutchies. Unfortunately, it looks like Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe will make it to the world cup this year. I hope...

    [Albion] Inigo Calderon

    That Secret Scout does seem to get a lot right at youth level. I imagine with Calde it may have been agreed for him to start at the end of the season.

    [Football] Mark Beard new Eastbourne Borough fc Fulltime Coach

    Undoubtably. As I mention, there is always a few that will have more that skew the average and some that won't pay much at all. You also get a few who coincidentally start a new job at the owner's firm when they sign on too. 'Amateur' football here in The Netherlands is also hardly amateur...

    [Football] Mark Beard new Eastbourne Borough fc Fulltime Coach

    Yeah the league varies massively. The 250/300 will be what Aveley/Taunton and a few teams will pay. The upper scale is definitely tipped with Yeovil coming down as well as Maidstone and Torquay. Dartford also pay quite a bit.

    Dan Smith. Funnily enough, Barnes was up front with Lyle Taylor who has gone on to have an alright career himself.

    [Football] Mark Beard new Eastbourne Borough fc Fulltime Coach

    Yeah credit where it's due, that's much better. I have a big connection to Borough for years before I moved away, so I want them to do well. It just seems a bit sudden in all honesty. It really, really depends, especially as there are some pro clubs down there now. It can be anywhere from...
