Below are screen grabs of the slides from the presentation of where we stood in August 2024. Since then there has been no "consultation" with members.
Is this a consultation or a presentation?
This week the proverbial sh*t hits the fan.
Dear Member
Thank you to those of you who joined us last Friday for our consultation event relating to The Hundred. We hope that the presentation and subsequent discussion helped to aid your understanding of what is, undoubtedly, a complex topic.
If you were not able to make the event in person, we're providing an opportunity to attend an online version of the forum, to be held on Thursday 15 August from 6pm via Zoom.

Thanks for Birthday on line balloons Nottsview !
ReplyDeleteIs worrying. Am baffled, tbh. Is this answer really say saying non Hundred staging counties should only play that format, while that competition is taking place ? And they want that, and MC want that. Sort of madness gripping our sport. Cannot see this ending well, if so
ReplyDeleteMCC I mean.
ReplyDeleteNot MCC, but Middlesex CCC (a non-hosting county) want to play County H*ndred during the playing of the Franchise H*ndred in and beyond 2025
DeleteThanks for clarification, it all gets weirder.
ReplyDeleteOn the question of is The Hundred a success ?
Attendance wise 2023, compared to 2022 Yes
TV viewing Big No.
Profit wise, ECB. claims of a profit appear to exclude genuine costs. So seems No too.

ReplyDeleteCut and paste seems to work. Judging by 2023, likely to be months before we have this info for 2024.
ReplyDeleteGetting the forum well out the way before end of season crafty.
ReplyDelete"How was it for you ?" The old joke seems to apply after, love making,
ReplyDeleteHim "How was it for you Darling ?"
Her "How was what ?"
Email from the bridge yesterday trying to put a positive spin on next years internationals. Assume the match with Zimbabwe will be a three day one. I know we have the Ashes back in a few years but next year is really poor fare.
ReplyDeleteThought we were listed for an India Teat ? We seem to have really got the bum deal of all the Test venues. Slavishly following ECB line has not worked.
ReplyDeleteFunny thing is, with my medical condition, a smaller crowd Test Match in May will mean my return to Test cricket, God willing, after 18 years.
ReplyDeleteIt's a dreadful allocation for Trent Bridge and what this set up deserves
ReplyDeleteIt was made clear that India did not won't to return toTB as it was not suitable
ReplyDeleteFor all there requirements
Leicestershire want more members but club membership in 2025 costs £300 (early bird £240), compared with £175 in 2024. With t20 it's £350 (early bird £275) whereas £215 in 2024.
ReplyDeleteYes they will be lucky to get the improvements to the pavilion out of the way by the start of the 26 season
ReplyDeleteThis will be a very complexed project
I know people were sad regarding international fixture altercation, but India were never coming to a building site at TB
The top table have long been aware of this situation as the Indian backroom staff
Including players numbers 100+
Certain individuals at TB need to be more transparent with there memberships

ReplyDeleteWhacking increases in the Leic various Memberships . It’s almost 33% more than this season . Is it a wise move?
To be fair, the news that the pavilion works are set to start in the Autumn, and to continue into next season, might explain lack of India Test match here. Has pavilion extension etc got full planning permission now ?
ReplyDeleteSorry, just read the answer is yes.
ReplyDeleteJust a PS. The rear part of the pavilion, which is to be demolished, is described by the club as recent. It is in photographs from 20s and 30s. Anyone know the date it was built ? As the pavilion was used as a hospital in WW1 suspect it was there then, otherwise would seem to have been to small for that.
ReplyDeleteWho will renew next season if nothing changes.?
ReplyDeleteBit quiet re that question ! Just looked again at plan drawing for "new" Pavilion. Looks like an old East German prison.

ReplyDeleteReally interesting to read these comments. - on India nor returning and the membership costs.
ReplyDeleteI don’t work locally but I can tell you where I do work (Northampton and Buckinghamshire) the locals are very jealous that I get to be a member at Trent bridge. Like it or not the pricing isn’t bad compared with other places.
……and the news on Leics today seeking backing is already feeling like the thin end of the wedge…..

I cannot imagine anyone being jealous. I would be surprised if membership passes 1000 this winter
ReplyDelete81 NOT OUT
ReplyDeleteNOTTS Members could be a problem for the Club in later years .
A bigger Membership equals a bigger problem ?!
Leics and Hamps are asking for investment in the Club - from virtually anyone really ! Yorkshire may be going the same way .
Notts might be tempted sooner than we care to think ?
LCCC members gave their approval without voting away their rights (at this point). I'm sure those Notts supporters with dual memberships (there were quite a few in 2024 for reciprocal reasons) will be able to clarify on here.
DeleteIf I read your comment correctly, you are implying that Mr Jarvis is trying to drive the LCCC membership downward so that a fewer number of members equates to a smaller problem to [his plans for] privatisation and demutualisation of the club.

ReplyDeleteNOTTS CCC have become much more secretive over the past few years . Just think of all the information Members should have on all sorts of relevant topics - but it doesn’t escape the Pravda regime .
What are the medium and long term objectives of the Club ?
Members , given the opportunity , ask far too many awkward questions that the Club prefer not to answer. This happens all the time at the very occasional Members forums . The top table at the last lunchtime forum got pretty aggressive towards the suggestion that changes at the top were well overdue.
In top successful Companies it is often thought that 10 years is enough for top executives to stay in power . They can often get stale , run out of energy and fresh ideas . Some at Notts have been there far too long . Everyone there with a top job seems quite happy to carry on for years and years regardless of what’s happening on and off the field . I now virtually know what The Doc , P. M. And Lisa are going to say when they stand up to answer a question . They have become the untouchables no matter what happens .
If frozen why not leave renewing until next year as there's no insensitive to do so
ReplyDeleteMany counties desperate for money
ReplyDeleteMost trying every trick to get people to renew memberships before next season
Hard times ahead for all
81 NOT OUT
ReplyDeleteTimes are hard !
And going to get harder
Sir Starmer has already told us !
Pick yourself up , dust yerself
down and start all over again .
After another non event season, why would anyone want to buy a membership for 2025, unless they have nowt better to do.
ReplyDeleteThorough waste of your life watching Notts under this regime.
Pursehouse must think that the members are as misguided as she is. It's a no from me, I'm afraid.
Don't mistake undying support for the club for support of the Gang of Three regime.
DeleteIt's now a gang of 4 with chairmen now aboard the TB bus, Lisa's own nominations
ReplyDeletePreference to lead the club
Does it speak or is Lisa a ventriloquist as well?
DeleteUndying support for the club that's not ours anymore you mean?
ReplyDeleteI personally will not be going to the metro
ReplyDeleteCup final, & yes it will be the last as players are calling for it to return to lords

ReplyDeleteCricket price hikes ! A sign of the times - with many Counties struggling financially . I wonder if Notts ccc will be the only one of the eighteen Counties to “freeze” their 2025 Membership rates ?
We all know why Notts have had to do it . Looking forward to visiting the n” new” improved Pavilion - when its ready!
