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.
Having been alerted to the web posting's myself and family circle have appreciated and enjoyed reading the stories and postings about our Uncle Miller O'Prey. It was never a dull day with my Uncle around and he will be sorely missed by us all. Thankyou for the messages of support.
Who's older by the way Michael Shannon or Bumperdale...fair play to them, they must be the oldest senior players in Ireland
looking at the age gap - congratulations to 11 year old Sam Gordon from Muckamore who has made into the NCU U13 squad. Perhaps getting that wicket at Comber swung it!!
Why would anyone retire with a mere 1000 wickets!!!
1500 is my target!
Keep on torturing those batsmen Michael!!
What is your current total Billy?
Condolenses to the O'Prey family. Millar was a great opponent. Not an inch on the pitch but great crack afterwards. Many a great night my mate Johnny Millar and I spent at the Green in Millar's company.
