League averages

League averages show a few of our lads leading the way. Don't know how long they've been up, but only just noticed them. Anyway, in a nutshell:

Nelly B and Doc P leading the Div 1 bowling stats, both weighing in with wickets at less than ten apiece. Paul has twive as many wickets but is a tad more expensive. Meanwhile, even though the 2's are struggling in Div 3, our glorious leader Mickey Jones (NOT Welsh) Jones leads the wicket keepers table with 11 victims!!!!

Don't know if we should now just pray for rain for the last 3 weekends to secue some league honours.

watch out

possibly another marathon developing on the 2nds blogsite!!!! see 'best performances' and hang on.

keep up with the jones'

Mick, you have not been keeping up! I cannot call you as i have lost my phone. But you have a house phone i hear you cry. Unfortunately i do not have your number stored in my house phone, or, like back in the olden days, my head.

I will meet y'all at the robin at whatever the stated time was.

found it!!!

be going straight there then

HELP

Would like to go straight to Robbies on Sat if someone would kinly remind me where it is - I know, but it's been a year since we went there...otherwise, I'll be at the Robin on time.

First new signing for 2008!!!

In case anyone's been wondering where Kieran has been recently, we sent the CDO on a secret recruitment drive overseas. Here is evidence of our first new signing for 2008 - a left hander who should fit in at around number 6 in our line-up ;-)

Many thanks, from the selection committee, for all those who played two or even three games last weekend as well as the all the sons and friends who helped make up the numbers and reduce the level of fines the club will receive. It was a big ask to get five sides out at the peak of the holiday season. We only have to put out two teams this weekend!!

1sts for sat home to Robinsons (meet at ground at 1pm)

A. Parkinson, P. Meehan, P. Allen, C. Brooks, N. Butterworth, K. Coe, M. Deegan, N. Hudson, A. Iqbal, C. Parkinson, D. Phillips.

Please let me know if you are going straight there and Smithy can you give me a ring?

Rob Holt

Did take a wicket against Failsworth Macedonia II he came out with figures of 5 overs 1 maiden 18 runs 1 wicket and was also 1 not out with the bat

back also

..unfortunately not in time for last Sun's fixture but available this weekend if selected

Smithy

Good to see you back smithy, only the bottom club goes down

and the rain comes again

Just to let you know, i am back from my hols and am available for weekend selection. Unfortunately my phone did not return from our hols so email or home phone are my only forms of contact.

Good to read Mr Holt was back in action and picking up fielding points - no wickets though!

If all matches are rained off till the end of the season will we go down? Is it the bottom 2, or just the bottom team that goes?

Life in the seconds website

All updated so please check it out

Doing the averages now! Stupid o clock in the morning!

Raise a glass ...

Barcelona boys Phil and Matt show the cameraman two frothing glasses. On the left, we see how much pee was taken out of the club by FOURTEEN players being unavailable last week, and on the right we see how much pee was taken by me opening the bowling with 3 slips and a gully on Saturday when we only had 7 players on the field ;-)
