FC Week 3

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

Home to a pretty good side, in the process of changing my pitch from Cracked to Green and have ended up with H+F, so hopeful of a draw. No Lea or Middleton today, and Prasad, Schoeman and Nagga play despite only being at Energetic.

BATTY SHRIMPERS v Ormian Superstars

We can tell you that Ormian Superstars won the toss and elected to bat. The pitch is looking a cracker! Hard and fast - should be a run-fest out there on this sunny day.

Sod it !

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Cricket Nufties v DIBS DIPPERS

We can tell you that The Cricket Nufties won the toss and elected to bat. The pitch is looking a touch on the green side. All the seam bowlers have been out there rubbing their hands on this partially cloudy day.

 

[Napster]

should be an easy win against bottom side in the division to cement my 100% record.

 

[MrB]

Playing last seasons third placed finisher. Plums down to lively so rests, Mario plays at invigorated as they play on a dusty track. Two reserve bowlers in the line up so a lot of pressure on Mario to perform as Cooky and Suthers never do too well on dusty.

 

[blues_r_best]

Welcome to Southend United CG for the match between Southend United and The Borg Collective.

We can tell you that Southend United won the toss and elected to bat. The pitch is looking quite cracked! A field day for the seam bowlers I would reckon on this sunny day.

They've thrown the match, I've set declaration for 420, hopefully Hoult can rack up some runs

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

Not what we need when morale is shattered

Picked up a wicket, but we're getting caned. Only 63k in gate receipts as well, 3 defeats in a week has really cost me.

Batting in a game I'm just looking to draw. Only Cronin and Deakin play out of my bowlers. Filled the side with batting to get 3 days in, as their manager hasn't set a declaration target so far this season (racked up 2000+ against the bot) so it should be ok.

[* ORM *]

Does anyone else with a non green pitch have green showing up on multiview - pavillion and main match page have me as dusty as expected. I'm hoping it is a known not match affecting presentational bug only though judging by my woeful batting performance I could well use this as an excuse. 190-4 last time I looked. That, frankly, is embarassing against divisions whipping boys and I really need the three days.

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

I think it always shows as Green on Multi-view.

Not a good day so far
