Div. 1:
Sur. v Essex Notts. v Som. Hants. v Lancs. Worcs. v Yorks.
Div. 2:
Warks. v Kent Northants. v Sus. Derbs. v Gloucs. Dur. v Middx. Glam. v Leics.
It's been fun, everyone. NB: it's been fun. Basically everything is decided. There's a nice title clash in Division 2, but otherwise, all we can really hope for is some decent cricket uninterrupted by the weather.

It's been alright, 2 month break June and July (give or take) is rubbish and I can't see it improving any time soon, 3 matches in Sept doesn't work and never will

Surrey bowled out for 67, Essex bowlers getting plenty from the wicket.

Anyone else kinda hoping Notts get relegated having poached so many players this season? It's on, boys!

I'd happily see Lancs win to see Notts go down after the poaching, but it's not going to happen is it? Notts would need to lose with pretty much no bonus points unless my maths (and the table i'm looking at being out of date) fails me

Nah, Lancs. are going down, and deservedly so. They can come up again when they find some batsmen. NOT CAMERON STEEL YOU'VE NICKED ONE DURHAM OPENER ALREADY

342 points not a great first day, but Somerset are doing nicely and Surrey so badly that it must surely invoke a 50 point penalty.
Edit: However, I did not need to read rumours of a Trescothick requirement and confirmation he hasn't signed his contract extension yet. 10 more years needed before I'll consider any of that nonsense.

I'm on about 250, but then i'm pretty gash at the ol fantasy bobbins, Sussex resting Jofra and Weiss hasn't helped matters tho the punk asses. Yorks are in a meh position, could've done without our outgoing quick taking most of the wickets, does not sow seeds of confidence for next year, but bloody hell you're getting a hell of a player there Nemo

Big fan of Brooks. Not really sure we needed an RFM with Gregory, Overton, Overton, Davey, Groenwald already on the staff and unlikely to lose more than one to England, but hard to turn down someone available and that good. Thr

I see Nemo’s gathering the upvotes early, playing to the masses on the Tresco issue...
Come on Lancashire! Come on Somerset!
EDIT: Flip’s sake Lancashire...

Lancs realistically going to need to score 300 for a poss Notts relegation right?

Post by Balladeer on Sept 25, 2018 10:30:40 GMT
All depends on how Notts. bat. I’m not quite sure about the sums...

2 bowling points puts notts on 133 so a 22 point win needed for lancs and Notts so for less than 200 by my reckoning, so 300 needed

Either way... Some needed intrigue in the final round
