Remarkable that the match could be played less than 24 hours after City's game. I know the pitch requirements would be different if City were playing the next day but great work for all the organisation needed.

Watching the Bears play Northampton. Bears not playing particularly well but not getting anything from the ref. Do rugby refs get big team myopia like in football?

Take it all back, apart from the penalty try!

Just watched the local news in Mansfield. The club (Mansfield) have parted company with their manager but no news of his replacement!  Are we ahead of the game with this one?

Can we have a pitch like Essex where only we can win on?

Have Somerset heard from Angus yet?

Should be a minimum no. of overs as well so it doesn't pay to time waste.

First tiebreaker I believe is most wins- well that'd be 5 each in this scenario.

Fewest losses? Well that'd also be level!

Err- whoever took most points from our 2 League meetings maybe? Our loss to them at Bristol in August would thus prove decisive.

Do they take sendings off into account....?

Oh no, that's the other lot!

Just speaking to some lads from Essex. Claiming Cook has contacted them to say they've been told game will be abandoned 

Would he have said that if Essex needed 150 to win?

Could we just play sensibly and take the 2 days to get what we need?

Can we ask Mr Fraser for advice about successful appeals agaimst a crap pitch?

Are Essex just on batting practice or is pride playing a part?

Very bad week for the Glos, two home defeats, out of the T20 and knocked back in the Div2 promotion race.

Was this the announcement then? 

I think that Bury's main problem with the efl/fa is that they're not high profile. Hypothetically if any of the top six premier league clubs or even Villa got themselves into the same position as Bury I can't imagine that they'd even consider throwing the club out.

381 - 3. Balance out!

Sorry, 281 - 3!

Yorks 83 - 2, both openers now gone!

Yorks 82 - 1 

Essex on maximum points, how many can we get, 19?

Wonder why Mullaney didn't appear?

21 - 2 and they're playing with nos 6 and 7?

They're relying on our extras at the moment.

2 - 1

Its turning sideways, doubt Notts will want to chase more than 200.

Wishful thinking?

Sub can't bat, only field 

What a waste of time two more balls all over 

Cant they act as a runner now?
