  1. PARTICULARLY disliked the Pears side around that era. One game that springs to mind was at the Home of Cricket against them in a 50 over game in,from memory, 1990? Notts batted first and struggled badly, but a brilliant knock of 90odd from Franklyn DaCosta Stephenson gave us some sort of total past 200. They then chased it down easily, I think Tim Curtis made a big score. I'm pretty sure it was a semi final game? Any Notts fans out there remember this game also?
