15/1 Is this as good as it gets?

 

[Soton Seagull]

Rain all the way, I reckon even at this early stage the weather could cost us dear this season. We'd have stuffed Surrey without a bit of the wet stuff, will those lost points come back to haunt us later in the sumer?

Though it pains me to say it, arguably the weather scuppered Lancs last season though - they had loads of rain and bad light affected draws, without which they might have pipped the mighty Sussex. So it can even itself out.
