R.E- Cricket in September
Unfortunately it seems a lot of clubs opt to "pack up" at the end of August with no intention of fulfilling their fixtures. This denies teams the opportunity of challenging for honours and more importantly less games for youngsters learning the game.
All these foreign imports and "directors of cricket" are all well and good but its the grassroots which really matter if our game is to thrive, which no matter what way you dress it up at club level it is not.

We can't "aford" anyone mate!!

Look at the stats... no chance! It's about 2011 performance & Bat... not really!!!?
RE - CI man
Probably couldn't aford them mate
Re Jonah
Surely McCord or Connell should be in the team as they can open bowling and can both bat a bit?
SC…
I understand your view, as he would be in my team 10 out of 10 times if this selection wasn’t based on balance of side from 2011 as well as stats…
From the stats this season the only one/two he could replace would be McCallan or Thompson, this would then keep the same balance with batting & bowling options. I’ve gone for 3 seamers & loads of spin options based on stats & also runs scored in batting position(s). If the top 5 is based on stats & a special innings or two along the way then Whitey just misses out this year… you can’t bat him lower than 5 really so that’s my reasons.

P Edwards - the season ends the last Saturday or Sunday of September, whichever be the latest. So Sunday 25th it is.
Due to the heavy rain on Friday the White Stick Trophy had to be postponed. I would like to apologise for anyone who may have turned up at Saintfield but alas I was unable to make publish a notice informing people of the cancellation.
RE; Jim
I'm sure I read somewhere that it ends the last Sunday in September...?
I think the season officially ends on 30th September!
Can someone please confirm...
Does the Season officially end this Sunday the 25th Sept...?
DK, Check the wicket-takers down the years and you'll be amazed at how many wickets Ian Harrison took and that's what the comment was about. He has a great track record. Remember Waringstown won virtually everything in Ian's day and he was the principal wicket-taker with a brilliant fielding team and superb stumper in Bushy. He was also a bowling sub for Ireland numerous times. He's up there with the best at club level.
