Andy I see your boys made it to the world cup this year. healy and davis were spotted hanging outside the stadiums autgraph hunting!
I like 'the cut of your jib' Andy, but I don't think Jim and the English contingents will share a similiar disposition? Keep them at it !!
just to please Jim - there's a couple of stories doing the rounds on text at the moment. "On Monday Argentina meet Brazil in Cape Town. Tuesday Spain meet Italy in J'burg and on Wednesday England meet France-- at the airport!!"
Also "breaking news - England have a new coach! It'll be picking them up at Heathrow on Thursday!"
And on a serious note - glad to hear that James F. McCall is OK after his mishap of being struck at Ballymena on Saturday.
Any idea when the semi-final draw is the challenge cup?
Tonight
Jim, would'nt like to see England go out, but they do make awful hard work off it ! You must agree !!
Anyway there's a wee problem at the minute with our web-site which our administer is currently trying to repair.
Wish he'd get a move on though, I've alot of writing and 'reporting' to be getting on with, as I'm sure you'll appreciate !!!
Vic Now, now stop bashing our wee team! By the way, was on your website today, and clicked on the Vic Johns tab... it says 'Fatal Error' LOL
No you heard rite Eves-dropper ??
324 to be exact, the only thing we did'nt do is bat out the full 50overs,47.2 we only lasted and our captain was very angry about that !!!!
Still like I said, wish England would play all their world-cup matches on a Friday evening, it's great comedy and does set 'one' up for a great days cricket on the Saturday !
Only thing is though, don't think they have too many matches left until it's time to go home !!! Dearry-me !!!!
Thanks Andy. Heard someone hit 300+ on Saturday as well. Am I mistaken?
Eaves Dropper - North Down 340 for 6 -v-Ballymena in Challenge Cup 22/5
Did I hear right, that some team in the NCU hit over 300 on Saturday? Highest so far this season has been a whooping 294 by Bangor. Who did it? How many did they make?
Brian Boyd of Academy reached 500+ wickets yesterday. Just show if you play long enough! But seriously, congratulations to a genuinely nice guy.
Well done to all who take 1,000 wickets in a career - some have taken 1,000+ inc International, Interpro and Senior 1 wickets, others throughout the divisions - all show great character, durability, determination and above all a love for the game of cricket!
Sorry I've put the such word in twice there for my last post, it's just I get far too excited just talking about cricket, never mind playing the it !!!
Unlike another game currently on TV all the time at the moment ?
Did you hear the latest, now the ball is 'too round' ????
Only in football I guess !
Still, might take a look-in tonite and watch England play Algeria.... should be good for a laugh anyway, set me up for a good day's cricket tomorrow !
It's great reading about the diversity of age of those playing cricket and isn't it one of the many great attributes of the game, that there's not as such a thing as a starting or finishing age limit as such, if your good enough your old enough! or equally if your good enough your 'young' enough !!!! Brilliant !
Just when I'm on, if the Lurgan Park-ranger is looking in, while on another tea-break ! Would you mind attending to our pitch out infront of you there and giving it an extra roll or two please ?
What with all this good dry weather, I fancy trying a bouncer or two tomorrow against Clogher, to try and force them into an 'early submission' and send them back to 'the valley' in Co. Tyrone well scared & well beaten ofcourse ! Thanks and only if you can tear yourself away from the Tee-pot!!!
"senior" players? Colin Magowan playing for Downpatrick is another one.
