Can someone please post a message or refer to a tweet about what happened in Limavady yesterday? It sounds extraordinary that the game was abandoned. It was easier to find out about Giggs than this episode!

Enjoyed the match on sat against downpatrick it was a tight match but i felt dundrum deserved to win as they took the catches and that was the difference in a good natured Derby game

I don't like what I've heard regarding the Limavady v Instonians match today. This is a matter that will test the backbone of Cricket ireland and if they get it wrong it could set the game back years. Now is the time for CI to show its mettle. If they don't get it right they are not worthy of the position they hold.

Re Muckamore v Waringstown Sunday 19th june. Thanks to all who have offered support and a special thanks to David Scott and Taito for some very practical help and a special thanks to Waringstown's Alan Waite who offered to sponsor the bbq's. Waitey being a mate of Andy Clement knows us Muckamore boys can't pass a burger stall without buying. We decided today to up the leaflets to 10,000 homes and cover Crumlin , Randalstown and Templepatrick villages as well. The extra printing costs were only £70 and itKs just another few hours work for each member on the delivery team. We want to leave no stone unturned as we go for the record crowd.our challenge is and always was getting those that don't go to cricket to turn up next Sunday , then enjoy it and come back regularily.

Good luck to Waringstown and Inst tomorrow in the BKISC. I hope the men from the Lawn send North County "back down the M1" with their tails between their legs.

Fly the NCU flag with pride lads.

This was really inspired by seeing so many strange faces at Stormont for the ODI's. I started thinking that for too long we had been targeting the same faces and thought we needed to reach out to other cricket followers. Also I realised that a lot of people in Antrim didn't even know where Muckamore Cricket Club was. Next season I think we want to make every home game an event.As you know from Comber many friendships develop from being on the boundary. We have got to sell the idea that spending a day at the cricket can be a great pastime. I would love to get to the stage where we were taking a supporters coach to every away game and other clubs were bringing a supporters coach to Moylena. The Muckamore v Waringstown game should be the start of things to come up and down the country. With free admission cricket has to be great value. Lets get with the pyjama cricket and have fans kitted out in club colours and make it a real spectacle. BBqs, facepainting for the kids and nail stations for the ladies are just a couple of great ideas Davy Scott of Woodvale shared with me this week. I am at Old Trafford on Friday evening for the Roses T20 game and will be looking out for ideas. For the match on 19th we want to make cricket the number one focus. Kyle may have played in front of some big crowds around the world but it will be nothing like having hundreds and maybe a thousand Muckamore supporters urging Gilly and Craig Drummond to knock him over.

Great idea Ivan! I hope your hard work is rewarded with numbers through the gate on the day! Why did you not choose the N Down fixture though lol?

Ivan, I was just wondering why you chose the Muckamore v Waringstown game, rather than the Muckamore III v Victoria II game last week?
