July 2, 20242 yr Remarkable. Another quality sportsman of senior age (over 40) and still going. Doubt we'll see him skriking.
September 28, 20241 yr Relegated. Then again, they did appoint a coach who finished bottom of Division 2 with 0 wins out of 14 the season before...

Good win against Somerset, but too little, too late. Poor weather hasn't helped, but performances just not good enough. Can it all be placed on coaching though?
September 29, 20241 yr They've been poor all season really. Decimated by international call ups of various sorts but even so it feels Lancs have been blooding too many youngsters all in one go in a pressure situation. No doubt they'll be back in Div 1 before long but the constrast between how we go about our business and Surrey theirs is pretty stark.
December 13, 20241 yr This is going to be brilliant, 10 minutes from me… will spend plenty time here. https://cricket.lancashirecricket.co.uk/news/2024-news/farington-project-july-2024-update/

That in itself is a bit controversial, but I can see some traffic problems at times.

It’s not great around here as it is…. Crickets on 3-4 months and the road widening might help things when completed.
January 14, 20251 yr Good news and nice hat. Hopefully see him again in action some time this summer.
May 11, 20251 yr Early days but doesn't look like a quick return to Division 1. No sign of Jimmy yet and they can't bowl teams out and can't bat either, apart from that.....

No sign of Jimmy yet and they can't bowl teams out and can't bat either, apart from that..... Batting has been good at times in fairness. Just not consistent. Weather can't be helping- loads of draws and clearly bowlers can't be getting much help from atmospheric conditions and dry pitches. Dunno what folk think, but the large disparity between points for a win and points for a draw quickly leaves a team stranded. Obviously it helps to force teams to push for a win, and should help the spectacle, but the sunny weather this time is unique. This area, the North West, has really suffered from the lack of rain- parts of the south have had some downpours, where as we haven't.

May 16, 20251 yr Jimmy back today. For Lancs sake, win toss and bat. For my sake, hope to see The Goat bowling on a beautiful day. Hopefully Marcus Harris judgement will be better than Jennings. Factor 30 on. Anyone going down remember. Slip, slop, slap, seek, slide. 👍🏏
May 17, 20251 yr Had decent 2 days, but nothing won yet. There was a good article in The Times earlier in the week by Mike Atherton about the sorry state of affairs at OT. He stated that many were unhappy with the coach Benkenstein rather than Jennings plus the club's obsession with franchise cricket and non cricket activity to the detriment of LCC. The club has considerable debt after redeveloping the ground.
