Lanterne Rouge

I`ve said this before but I often think the g*s are a long term installation project by the KLF. However I then think even in their most twisted moments Jimmy Cauty and Bill Drummond couldn`t have dreamed up the shitshow that is Bristol R*vers.

Rallying a bit now but still gonna lose I think.

Hampshire`s catching.....

This is awful death bowling - it will cost us the game.

I presume he gets released from duty now the test has finished - he is booked by England until Tuesday night but I don`t know what happens when a test finishes early, are they supposed to stay together and train or something?

I thought we had to finish in the top 3?

Well, we know what we have to do now - beat Hampshire and hope Kent beat Essex.

Not looking too good for us at the moment with Kent, Hampshire and Essex all looking like winning easily.

You don`t mean there are Teds in the Amman end?

It won`t be enough I don`t think. The others have two games left v our one for a start. We`d have to beat Hampshire and hope three of Kent, Essex, Middlesex and Gloucs drop at least two points - there are a few games where they`re playing each other too and can`t both lose. Our only hope is for there to be a little pocket of sunshine in the Southampton area on Wednesday with torrential rain over the rest of the country throughout Sunday and Wednesday!

Matt Renshaw called up by Australia and will miss a month of the season.

looks like the EP have taken this down now - the link doesn`t work anyway and goes to an error page. I can`t think why they`ve felt the need to remove such a reasoned and well thought out critique though.

Start delayed - still looking pretty crappy weather-wise too judging by the pictures on Sky.

It`s never going to suit everyone I suppose.

Somerset for instance probably wouldn`t have fancied finishing late v Middlesex and jumping on a bus to Canterbury overnight either.

To be followed very shortly by destitution

I doubt Henbury Gas sells many either.

Did someone say the Kent game on Tuesday was live on Sky?

Phew indeed. Did our best to **** it up though. Still, Somerset La La La!

Surely we can`t screw this up from here?

If it has it would explain a lot.

As if by magic! 130/7

We get another wicket in the next two or three overs and we win this I think.

80/5 after 17, we might just win this.

Super start. Gubbins, Eskanasi & Morgan all back in the hutch. 47/3 after 10
