I've long felt that we should have three 6 team divisions for 4 day and 1 day cricket (2 up, 2 down) with T20 either having a 2 group or 3 group system for 14 or 12 group games, however I would want to see the system brought in where 3 teams play each other over the course of the day (A v B, A v C, C v B) as fans get to see more cricket and it means less days in the county schedule, we do that sort of day for finals day so no reason why we couldn't do it domestically, just make sure the teams are local ie Somerset, Gloucestershire, Glamorgan, Worcestershire, Hampshire and maybe Warwickshire, pick 3 out of that.

Could be Cov '77 all over again !

There's no problem with 18 counties its simply the formatting that is the problem, creating a 4th domestic competition means some players are simply playing too much cricket and having to flip flap between different formats rather than being able to focus on one.

Sooo worse case scenario, Glos need 9 points and Northants need 4. I'm sure something could be arranged....

It's got rain most of next week anyhoo (according to the forecast, that is )

You know what to do Mark Ashton.
