Durham v Sussex LVCC Day one

[The Large One]

You didnt tell me big fella. I was witness to the awesome power of Roger's forward defensive myself!

Ah, sorry.

I know Roger very well - worked with him for seven years. He has regaled just about about every cricketing tale there is from his time at Sussex. I thought it might have been one I'd passed on to NSC.

I never met him myself but was told that he is a very nice chap!!

He is. Looks like Sir Clive Sinclair these days.

1973 Gillette Cup Final, I was there. Snowy was ripping through their top order but we took him off, then Proctor started to smack it around, should have kept him on.

Greig got run out going for a non existant single. every time the ball went to Sheppard in the field we shouted "Two to the Fat man".

Didn't Roger teach you his technique in the nets under the Gilligan stand?

The biggest crime was the four that was not in the '93 final. Big Franklyn quite clearly saved it, but the umpires gave it. The result might have been very different.

My abiding memory of that day was Dermot *spit* Reeve leading Warks singing 'Its got to be Warwick' to the Fairground Attrcation song.

Now 69-2

Yardy run out

Swashbuckler Wright out for 0

And now it's all going even more t*ts up - we've just lost two wickets and Kent are now 6 down vs Raincashire.

Assuming Yorks draw with maximum points, I reckon we need to get 350 runs at Durham to be sure of going into that final match ahead of them ... if we get less than that and lose, then we'll be 8th come tomorrow evening.

Kent 70/7...........

Talking about Kent, is Yassir contracted to them for next season?

 

[Couldn't Be Hyypia]

Bloody Kent - it's like they've done it on purpose. Still a chance to grumble about the strip?

Dermot 'sniffer' Reeve broke my heart that day.

Kent - 79/9

Kent All Out............................

 

[Statto]

lancs win.

 

[keaton]

But us and Yorkshire draw these matches and they'll need to beat us to stay up

But us and Yorkshire draw these matches and they'll need to beat us to stay up

and we'd have Kent and Lancs below us (just) as well.

 

[Uncle Buck]

Lets get through this game first.
