I will delete this post if required, by law or any other means; but it's sounding very much like Colin Graves, bankrolled by the ECB, is suing George Dobell for defamation.
Quite apart from this looking startlingly like a clampdown on free press - good free press, mind - I can think of about a million better uses of cricket fans' time and money.

John Hastings calls time due to Bloody Lung Syndrome (not its real name). Good chap, county stalwart (albeit for two different counties), sad reason to finally bow out for good.

This is your reminder that the Sun is gutter trash and should never be supported in any way.

Anyone who buys the Scum needs their head looking at. Lowest of the low.

None others that I know, certainly not internationals.

Terribly sad news about Bob Willis, a great servant of English cricket.

Terribly sad indeed, very few people with a bad word to say about him as a player and I think everyone had a soft spot (open or hidden) for his, "well Charles (followed by massive rant about how shit England are)"

Just wondering how everyone is coping with the lockdown. I hope everyone is doing well and continue to stay safe. Can't wait for the cricket to start again.

I'm alright, furloughed but on full pay so better off than most but unspeakably bored. Absolutely fuming that the best cricketing April/May I've seen in years has been completely kiboshed. It'll probably rain constantly all of August/September if we can get back out there.

Thanks for asking Humair. I’m good relatively speaking, WfH so disruption on that front has been minimal. The ladyfriend moving in was a bigger disruption! She bakes. I’m gutted it’s been as dry as it has. The parks are drying out, I presume hosepipe bans are on the way, summer’s going to be horribly hot... and of course, no cricket.

That Azeem Rafiq article. Good god.
Pretty obvious who in particular he means as well, and that's part of the problem.

Jesus Christ. Not a good look for the club at all, and by the sounds of things it’s about time they were looked at in that way.
