weather forecasters rarely right= bq summer

Robin was actually speaking too someone who has seen both teams in action today and he said that North Down have the bowling & the batsmen to destroy any team so i said what price he said North Down 2/5 Instonians 2/1 .personally i think it might be a tight game and if anyone out there wanted to lay me 3/1 ( apart from tayto) im willing to stick 20£ on Instonians? they did as expected completely outplay my beloved Dundrum but as every one loves the UNDERDOGS .ps will waringstown travel to support the favs?

jeff im sure i can manage a pint no worries. Although it might have to wait until next friday by the looks of the forecast. Lets hope it changes a few times before friday but pretty much every forecast is terrible at the minute.

Should be a good day and crowd if the weather is good

Vic Jons,

Thanks for your kind words. We have always enjoyed playing Victoria and have had some good tussles over the years. Namely Jackie Denver's solid defensive stroke...It was always a tradition that whenever we played you guys in Lurgan that you took us back to the club in Lurgan for a few pints. Nowadays, your guys seem to want to come to Dundrum and enjoy a few - cant think why! I didn't make it for a drink on sat after match as Davy (your opening bowler) mentioned that you were heading for Newcastle for a bevvy instead...maybe he didn't want to buy me a drink lol...

Extremely concerned and deeply upset that a very promising and dedicated young cricketer and friend will miss the biggest game of their life this week...at the expense of an extremely less promising and less dedicated senior cricketer...politics strikes again in local cricket me thinks!

Re Billy's post I heard the same story. I think some people need to lighten up and remember this is only a sport. People seem to ladder their tights too easily these days. Where has all the fun gone? It is no wonder that guys are heading for the golf course when you read some of the stuff on here and the other channel.

hope forecast wrong for friday

11th Aug 2009

neil , ok bet is on & im sure ill see if not sun at the england game .would wish you good luck but have too support that ONCE AGAIN FINE CLUB CLIFTONVILLE and im sure it will be good game & after. re vic jons thanks for your kind post as have to say we do try our best too all teams & supporters as not hard to offer make anyone tea or coffee.re tayto i would have bet with you on the cup final but you never PAY UP but if you can stretch the purse too a pint ill take INSTONIANS as they stopped Dundrum from being in the final .ps think if the weather stays away this could be a cracker as both teams have lots potential match winners ,re wayne norwood think waringstown just slight favs to win premier over north down but think your club CISN hold the key & if your their on friday i might just hold a few bets on it .

re philip doyle
story goes north down alleged on their website that cousins cheated in the league game, something to do with going over the rope fielding, and had to take it off due to a threat of legal action
this could be nonsense as i heard it about fifth hand!

Quite a few big names lined up to play tomorrow! David/Ian Humphreys, Andrew White, Kyle McCallen, Isaac Boss, Neil Doak to name a few!
Fingers crossed the rain stays away so that there will be some sort of match played!

Davey, maybe you could explain the Waringstown angle on the Cousins matter as I've heard one version that seems very straightforward?
