'Orns Posted September 22, 2016 Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 What are the permutations if Mid-Yor draw? What do Som need to do if that is the case? I'm completely confused, but hoping Somerset bring the title down here from the bloody Yorkies, and can't stand Middlesex either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or it ***** it down at Lords tomorrow. I really don't think I can put up with another Yorkshire love in on twitter 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Popodopolous Posted September 22, 2016 Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 Middlesex 2/2... Like others on here I am a Gloucs fan but I kinda hope Somerset win it- not one of the richer counties, would really break the mould of Test playing counties winning. Plus quite importantly, frankly they deserve it- their surge from lower midtable has been quite something! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Popodopolous Posted September 22, 2016 Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 The problem is twofold here... Somerset will win, sure but one of two things may well happen: 1) Middlesex are demoralised and could collapse in a heap- after all they cannot win here surely, why bother from that pov? 2) In the (admittedly unlikely) event of Middlesex rallying, they may set something up, and with a win being the only option Yorkshire may chase or may collapse chasing a crazy target.

GrahamC Posted September 22, 2016 Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 Somerset should be very proud, another brilliant season, another group of excellent, local (well, largely Devon) youngsters discovered. Just need Middlesex to show some backbone against those arrogant tykes.. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lanterne Rouge Posted September 22, 2016 Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 I reckon the Middlesex players will want second place if they can`t win it. The players prize money difference is incredible between 2nd and 3rd, about double. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that much more I understand. The huge gap is between 2nd and 3rd which is why they mentioned it on 5live I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lenred Posted September 23, 2016 Report Share Posted September 23, 2016 (edited) Not a mention of us on the opening analysis on the live coverage. So bloody annoying but should be used to it by now I guess! (Edit, Bumble and Atherton have just mentioned us with cider obviously mentioned in the same breath!)
