This additional meeting is a replacement for the January meeting which was cancelled as a Covid precaution – it will have the same speakers as originally planned for January.
The two speakers are both Trent Bridge Heritage Volunteers and their presentations will focus on two interesting and controversial cricketing personalities.
Mike McNamara will deliver a cricket heritage talk ‘Sir Julien Cahn – the ultimate outsider’. A successful businessman, Cahn was President of Notts CCC on three occasions in the 1930s and supported the Club financially, including funding several ground developments at Trent Bridge.
In the second part of the meeting, local cricket historian and writer Chris O’Brien will speak about the amazing life of cricket writer and music critic Sir Neville Cardus. The talk will draw on ground-breaking research by Chris on the life and work of Cardus, which culminated in his recent book ‘Cardus Uncovered’.
March's first Nottingham Cricket Lovers’ Society meeting on Thursday 17th from 7.30pm, will feature as speaker Director of Cricket Mick Newell.
The evening will also include the society's annual general meeting.

Enid one of the very best x
ReplyDeleteJust to let you know that Boyd Headlong has died and his funeral is at Wilford Hill next Wednesday 19th January at 12.30 p.m. Hopefully those who knew him can get along to his funeral. He was very much old school and gave Rose and myself a box of chocolates for organising the end of season Fuddle in the pavilion area. The club was contacted by Martin Hart.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to Mick. Regardless of what our differing views on him may be, he’s always good value when he speaks with a witty and dry sense of humour. I can remember at one of the last Members Forumn’s we were able to attend, someone at the back shouted to him “Stand Up” when it was his turn to speak and he replied “Why is it only me that’s got to stand up, has someone got a gun pointed at me” I think this must have been towards the end of 2019 when we couldn’t buy a win in red ball cricket.
