RE: CSNI

With Wayne Horwood away to Muckamore, Regan West injured, Nigel Jones with Ireland committments, and Gary Wilson with county commitments it could be a testing year for CSNZ. They are going to rely heavily on a good team spirit and their pro Noema-Barnett

Re Ivan

Good luck to Wayne for his move (back) to Moylena, a grand place to play cricket and a nice bunch of guys at the club.

Muckamore for promotion!

No problem Jason,storm in a tea-cup and all that!
Good to see your adding too and strengthening the team, will watch with interest as the season progresses!

Stevie 'Max', can't get any of our chaps or any other eejit to come down to the Park and bowl a few overs at me! So I can practise the batting as well.

Must be afraid off the neighbours talking or something? but I bet they can all still stand up at Mourneview Pk. and 'roar' after Glenavon F.C.alright,even when the cricket season has already started too!!!!

Vic

That was mr McCart give off to ya that nite lol i was just relayin the msg

weve got stuart kidd on board from waringstown at the minute so hoping to push forward now up the league and away from any relegation battles

what teams in section 2 have acquired the services of a professional this year?

Stevie,no point that guy Vic going anywhere else now,he tried that before and did'nt like it!

If you 'cut' him open,he'd just bleed out Victoria C.C. all over the place.

Anyway Millpark would'nt want him there cause he runs up & down the middle off their batting strip when he's in batting,they don't like that very much at Bamford Green!

Is'nt that rite Jason ???

Is'nt that rite

Jason/Vic,
Maybe you guys should take Vic on board at Banford Green. He seems to be steaming through the overs in Lurgan and wont need any pre season training. I'm a little worried about his batting as he hasn't mentioned it on these forums. Maybe he's got coaching and is going to surprise us all this season!

Jason,
Don't know off any moves myself,but like you say, pretty sure there's plenty going on down in 'our' leagues as well!
We're just as usual,but hoping to consolidate and try and improve on last season's poor showing.

How do you reckon Millpark will fair this season? After gaining promotion,will it be a case of trying to stay clear of the 'dreaded bottom two', or are you expecting Mid-table or better?

Only pullin yer leg stevie!!

Any lower league new signings to report?? as in section 2 or 3??? cmon someones bound to have moved??

Thanks Jason, I forgot how accurate you are!

Wayne Horwood has indeed signed on to play at Muckamore. Wayne started his career at Muckamore and actually made his debut in Senior cricket with us in 1991. He actually cycled from his home in Crumlin to Moylena to practice.It was always his intention to finish his career back at Moylena. He has always been friendly with Brian Dunlop and David Cardwell.
He has been training with us through the winter and has been impressed by the amount of talented young players starting to emerge. He can help those players develop now on the pitch and help new skipper Andy McCulloch achieve his goal of promotion.
Wayne and Brian Dunlop should be a formidable opening partnership with Kamy at three and youg Jason Vde Merwe at four. Simon Thompson has been back in nets after missing most of the last two seasons through injury and his experience will be vital when called upon, while Neil Gill and Richard Keates have been shaping up well with bat and ball in the nets. So I think we will be in the mix but would have thought Bangor and Woodvale would be favourites and Derriaghy and Holywood looked good sides last season.
Due to getting six new clay wickets laid we have to play our first nine games away from home so it's important we get a solid start with a settled team.

hearing rumours about Wayne Horwood returning to his roots - big boost for Muckamore for a drive for promotion.

looks like a stevie max delivery

Rodney,
The batsman actually did well to get to the ball and get bat on it!

Its the bowler I'd be more worried about!!

Does he play for 'Dundrum'?

Judging by the weather and our pitches there's maybe more chance of this shot!
