jayjayoghani Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 Don't know if anyone's been following them but they're in with a shout to win the County Championship for the first time in donkey's years. Anyway, playing Kent at the minute. Kent have dominated the first 3?? days. They need 215 to win in the 4th innings. Gone from 122 for 1 to 161 for 6.

Guest as Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 No, it f*cking shouldn't. The 'Greater' thing may have worked in London, but folk round our way have too much pride to pretend to be something they ain't. Apart from our Salford Whites, who shout about Manchester, when they're actually from a seperate city :-$ PB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bolty58 Posted July 21, 2006 Members Share Posted July 21, 2006 Shouldn't it be Greater Manchester & Lancashire these days? Almost a treasonable offence that question. We told em when they came up with it that we'd never accept it. Lancashire red rose and proud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Traf Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 215-8 at the end. Freddie only managed 2 overs today. His ankle hurts too much, off to see a specialist on Monday: 2nd test looking unlikely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
