Re: CI Shortlister,
I'm very sorry indeed to learn that I didn't make 'the cut' as you so succinctly put it ! And thanks for the kind offer of the use of your Gym.
I do hope it wasn't my quite portly waist (not waste) measurements that sealed my fate, although sometimes to my disadvantage I can be just too honest !
However it was nice to dream for a while, but now it's back to reality and to continue on I guess with the same old..same old, 12hr shifts at boring old work, but good luck to the new player/coach at CIYMS C.C. whoever he/she maybe.
And best wishes to all at Belmont Rd.for next season !
Mr Boomer the post wasn't for our 4th XI, if you read the criteria it said premier league standard!
Sorry C.Boomer, You didn't make the cut!
But if you would like to join we have a gym there too if you would like to cut down to a 32..
bit cryptic there Matthew! C'mon name a few names for the crack!!
funny how clubs want all yes men to try and run them who will not go against what the other big guns say some clubs are sad and will end up very sorry
CI Shortlister:
Thanks for that and by the way I won't need the car insurance, but I'm a 36" waste or there abouts....Just incase !
My regards again to you all.
Re C Boomer. It's going very well thanks, all candidates are very excited at the prospect of new tracksuits and Hughes insurance. Any news, we'll post it here first!
Clarence just finished getting through the book. A great read! Congrats to you, Bill and the team.
It's a fair comment Andy, hateful to say the least to see quality home produce being 'head-hunted' by England and then if they're up to it, off they go and become 'English' !
Although in fairness to the individuals themselves I suppose it's a bigger meal ticket at the end of the day and a chance to 'shine' at the highest level if all goes well.
As for the current India v England ODI series, it's a pity to see England surcumbing so meekly out in India after such a productive summer at home, but alas there's two insurmountable barriers that stand between them and a series white-wash...
1/India's slow bowling in their own back-yard.
2/Mahendra Sing Doni.....awesome !
Bye the way, how's the shortlisting going with the new CIYMS player/coach ?
surprised that no-one has commented on Michael Vaughan's view that Boyd Rankin would soon be in an England jersey. Its not so long ago that england was being touted as the number 1 world side and how quickly that changes. And as for the England rugby World Cup performance!! Better quit now or posters will accuse me (again) of being anti-English
Messrs. Shannon & Maxwell enjoying the rain at Randalstown on Saturday!! A good close game 14-13 to the visitors. Now we know what they do in winter!!
Re Sam Barr (Another well know name!!!!!)
JT was a guest of mine @ the NDCC dinner...we have been good mates for a long time.
I can confirm that unless JT decides to take a 100% pay cut, there is ZERO chance he will be playing at the Green next year!!!
Superb bowler is JT, could and should have played for Ireland on many many occasions.
Sam where do you get your "done deal" information from?
The only "done deal" down here is Brian Walsh is the new NCU chairman and Christopher Harte president after last night's AGM.
Hear its a done deal johnny thompson on his way to the green to replace mr khan....
Re Timmy Morrow:(A name i haven't encountered before in Cricketing circles, but who am i to doubt the authenticity of your name,as you clearly have an expert knowledge of local cricket!!)
We at NDCC will of course miss Taimur...no team in the land could say they wouldn't!
What i will say is this, we have lost Andrew White, D.Kennedy, Ralph Coetzee, Marty Dalzell and a few other names over the past lot of years and still continue to win numerous trophies year on year.
You say that W'Town and Inst will be licking their lips with Taimurs departure??....mmmmmm...maybe the inexperienced players, but not the experienced ones. They know better than to write off NDCC. Always good battles between the top 3 teams in Prem League and long may that continue.
Time will of course tell, but it's a silly man that backs against ND.
Oh and fyi, Ryan Haire has been as equally, if not more consistent than any player at ND over the past decade.
