  1. Underwhelmed, not being unkind, and not a Notts home match, but isn't Kibworth a village ?

  2. Played for Boots v Cleerhorpes there, run out for 8. Every cloud has silver lining 2 long standing ex members, who now find it difficult to travel to Nottingham from that area, will be able to get to that match.

  3. Freddie is an injury replacement for Harry Moore - DH

  4. In a word Big Dave - NO
    We seem to use this competition purely as a development experiment ๐Ÿงช as opposed to going all out to reach the final which is at the real Home ๐Ÿก of cricket ๐Ÿ of course
    Hope I am wrong ๐Ÿ˜‘ and our beleaguered DoC proves me wrong

    1. Didn’t realise our DoC had already confirmed we would have an overseas but if anyone can get their head around MM playing for Derby in this years comp, ahead of moving next year, pls could they enlighten me

      Delete
    2. Provides an opportunity for someone in the Seconds who will be around next season unlike MM. Alternatively it allows the DoC to bring in someone like we did last year with Rob Lord - Kermit.

    3. Pocko would be the sensible signing - if you know, you'll know. Newell doesn't do sensible, only does easy (for him), however.

      Delete
    4. I’ve no real argument with MM going, players come & go much more thesedays and he struggles to get into our red ball team
      But, surely play your strongest team still this year - worry about who is playing in the 50 next season after this year’s competition is over
      MM is no world beater - but playing him would have made us stronger so I still just don’t get it - they did it with Joey Evison though so guess we shouldn’t be too surprised ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

    5. It would appear that the stategy we eventually found for winning T20 games by the end of the group stages this year doesn't suit Silver Fox's grand vision for the future. Conor McKerr and his agent have been in touch and don't like the spin, spin and more spin tactics, they want to revert back to concede 200+ and we'll chase if we can Plan A. You're right Kevin, we shouldn't be surprised, agents are encouraging player transfers more these days, stating that these poor over worked players want more opportunities to play, so want more not less cricket. There's every possibility that there will be less opportunities built into the schedule next season before Silver Fox etches out his teamsheets for the season.
      As for the MBC 2025, we have 17 players available from our existing squad. The General is in charge, so unlike the Silver Fox, he'll know all 17 and they all might get an opportunity to play a game or two. We are now low on spin choices, however - Farhan and ...... Slater. Monty and a Fateh would have been shoe-ins this season. Do we have management or mismanagement at Trent Bridge?

    6. You are a truly bitter individual Dave some of your reporting is sarcastic filled with hate I feel sorry for you probably a Lonely individual who is obsessed with … as you put it !!!!! silver fox .. A fair few of us are concerned about you and your mental health please get help and try and report on facts rather than a weird obsession thank you . Regards Alan Kimpton you can find me on facebook if you want to DM me

      Delete
    7. Thank you for your concern Alan Kimpton and the "fair few". Thank you also for your on going interest in Nottsview as your auditting of two weeks old comments suggests.

  5. No doubt Paul Franks was delighted as the rest of us, with the news of Peter Moores's new 3 year contract.
    Any aspirations the general may or may not have had, for permanently stepping up, have now been well and truly quashed.
    I hope Martindale gets another chance in this years competition. I have always seen talent in this lad, and he has been a consistant performerfor the seconds. Let's hope he can develop his bowling, to strengthen his case.

  6. 82 NOT OUT
    What a messy end to the last few games of the season . A season in which Notts COULD end up County Championship winners . The TB top team obviously have one eye on future 100 Ball possibilities . The Metro Cup has been downgraded to something of little importance or consequence .
    There is bigger fish to fry for quite a few at Notts CCC !?

  7. Odd mix of venues 2 currentTest grounds, one that has staged Trst cricket, a county ground, and 2 smaller venues. Hope we do well this year.

  8. Trent bridge not being used this week so two 50 over games being played in a far flung field somewhere near Shirebrook??

    1. The same arguement each year of that other competition, Anonymous. If there is anyone that actually darkens the doors of Trent Bridge for a R*ckets fixture, perhaps they could enlighten us as to what intricate work has to be done that would be undone by Outlaws playing there. Every Day Counts. Only 6 more Notts Match Days at Trent Bridge left this season.

    2. Not enough pitches on the square I'm afraid - Kermit (educated by the CEO)

      Delete
    3. You shouldn't listen to Miss Piggy Kermit, the H*ndred double jeopardies will only take the 1 central pitch as will the International (if not the same pitch). There's the 2 MBCs later this month (same pitch/hybrid?) The MBC Final, and the 1 Championship game nearly into October. It's not too hot now, the grass is growing. Obviously the overworked, under-pressure ground staff have gone on their summer hols to recuperate ahead of the important R*cket games, in order to put on a show, to make her look good! (if anyone is looking)

  9. I would rather see someone from the stiffs
    Given a go at Glamorgan
    Sam's bowling as been truly shocking in the metro bank just like it was in the blast
    We have 3 tough fixtures coming up at Glamorgan Hampshire & home to Gloucestershire can't see a positive result for us from these 3 fixtures to be honest
    But never say never
    & it could come down to win against surrey under16 in the last fixture at TB

  10. Has the paperwork now been done to make the 2 unused Ricket Franchise players available at Cardiff ?

    1. The R*ckets play again on Saturday so they may be needed. As the Phoenix play on Sunday both LPW and Freddie McCann are automatically not available - Kermit.

      Delete
    2. Tom Moores and Calvin Harrison playing for the R*ckets this afternoon - Kermit

      Delete
    3. Have you gone with Miss Piggy and your nephew Robin, Kermit?

      Delete
    4. Not likely as they refuse to play our songs - Kermit
