Forum

By the way, I didn't actually make that earlier post asking how Stephen found the article, it looks like someone is using my details to make a post. The important thing is that Armagh CC know they were guilty of no wrongdoing, that a Senior Cup tie was played and that the right winners progressed to the next phase of the tournament.

I didn't Gareth. Called into the garage round the corner from CI after nets at about 9pm and they where sold out unfortunately.

What did the article say?

I most certainly will Gareth, look forward to reading it later.

Re Stephen Hughes.

Given that you represent a club that has more untruth written about them than most, I hope you will see fit to retract your last post when you read todays article.

Gareth, I will gladly buy the Newsletter on my way home after work. I certainly know there is two sides to every story, which is why I never reply on this forum with regards to any of the postings about CI.

All I was saying about the article, was that it wasn't great press for your club, implying that you would rather have a bowl out against Lisburn than play a 50 over match, but then any press is good press!

jeff, your just labelling us favourites to try and scud us lol. It is far far to early to even be thinking of such things. Havent seen half of the teams in action yet. One game at a time

Hughesy, I didnt see that. what happened at armagh then?

Re Stephen Hughes and his Newsletter.

Perhaps, but hopefully you will read todays edition at some point and take a look at the more even handed account produced there. Armagh were not spoken to before yesterdays edition was published while Lisburn had obviously had their say to anyone who wanted to listen. There are two sides to any story and now both are in the public domain.

Yesterday's Newsletter didn't speak to highly with regards Armagh's attempts to turn their match into a bowl out against Lisburn!!!

taito / done umpires ncu result ~+ 3 papers get reports + reports on the website www.dundrumcc.com + anyone looking info rodney has set it up that it that you do it once + papers get it , smart lad is rodney ~+ will do the ncu tonight but as im out toiling in the sun feel free too give ryan a summary. ps taito if you had bet on sat u wundt owe me 40£, god this is hot. downpatrick deff favourites win this section !!

What is the web address for the NCU site?

The link that you are using and probably used last year is to add results & scorecards to the CricketEurope website. This is now seperate to the NCU site.
The CricketEurope site only shows Division One & senior cup results. The NCU site is able to display ALL teams results. Currenly there is no link that we can offer clubs to add their scores, so I am asking clubs if they want to provide scores for the NCU site - they should email me.
Its a nasty job, but as not many have taken this up, I am not too busy with that.
Its not perfect, but for a complete range of club results - the NCU site CAN offer this with clubs help.

A simple "Team A 123-4 beat Team B 122 by 6 wkts" is fine or clubs can give more details.

For more details I can be emailed or phoned.

Ryan, thanks for clearing that up but i still think there is some confusion. we were sent a link a few weeks back that has the option to fill in scorecard and or result summary. Does ths not go to the NCU site? I have sent this for our home games and the table has been updated.

Is this not what we should be doing? i.e do we fill that in or sent an e-mail to you?

thanks

Re: Results
I have been asking via the official NCU site for any results to be emailed to me at ncu.pro@btinternet.com
Currently we have some problems with offering the service for clubs to add results to the NCU site. However I can do this in the short/medium term.
The NCU site can show results for ALL matches - senior, junior & schoolboys.

Other than Cliftonville, Derriaghy & Lurgan - other clubs have not offered results. Clubs must take responsibility to produce the results to be published on the NCU website.

So for those guys who think that results appear by magic - please think again and help us provide the service. If you want to see the results - provide them.

Thanks to those people who are helping, productively.

Just another result downpatrick beat burndennett by 8 wickets in the ulster shield on sunday.

Jeff have you sent in the scorecard or result of our game to the other site? i see neither are there yet?

Agree with Uncle Buck-naaaa. Andy has it spot on. When we played with the big boys last year my mobile suffered burn out fending off calls before , during and after games from "The Bushe Telegraph", "Callender girls" , "Sunday Lifeless" and our "Dear Old Auntie".
Relegation and my new ringtone is Cliff and "We don't talk anymore"!!!
Maybe it's commercially viable to write about the latest commonwealth invaders to our shore, maybe they sell more copy on the streets of Auckland and Jo'Burg.
Maybe it was an oversight , and us born and bred and butter cricketers will get a wee mention next week.
p.s. if anyone's interested Cliftonville went to North Fermanagh and won by 5 wickets in the Ulster Shield , surprised it wasn't in the newsletter as our Kiwi scored 73!!
