Muchall to retire at end of season.

Taking up a teaching position at Bow School Durham in the sports department.

Notts have approached Borthwick and Stoneman too

Notts have approached Borthwick and Stoneman too

They sniff around Rocky every year!

Is that a rumor or have they made an official approach.

I was told by a friend at cricinfo. He'd know.

Notts have got the money to take at least one. Rocky would be a great signing for any county probably not going to get the England call and can open the batting in all forms of the game.

There's a lot to dislike about Notts.

Yeh there's an article by Dobell about it-approach appears fact rather than rumour. Notts need to replace Hales and can outbid Durham. Worrying 'cos there's nowt in the 2nd team.

 

[Chillinrice]

Yes it's worrying that Durham have let these lads get into the last year of their contracts without getting them resigned, it now means other clubs can invoke the 28 day rule and speak to them openly.
I said it on an earlier thread, the starting 11 next season could look a lot different to the current side.

Reading that article it looks like Hales is off so that gives Notts even more dough to play with although it looks like Chopra is first choice.

 

[Ceverton]

Wasnt Muchall linked with Philli last winter? Or have I made that up?

Ah really? Wasn't who I heard it from. Must be something in it then.

Aye, Dobell is normally well informed, he's one of the better cricket journalists IMHO.

Here's a thought, if Stoneman, Borthwick, Mustard all go, and Colly retires, the club might have to beg Muchy to stay on.

If colly retires and mustard goes there'll be headroom in the budget to send a little bit more coin Borthwick and Stoneman's way.

Colly won't retire

Colly won't retire

that was a theoretical retirement

There's more than just those 2 out of contract though, and although they're 2 of our big players there's an awful lot of other contracts needing sorting as well. Sounds utterly shambolic behind the scenes

 

[Safc_Luke]

Notts have approached Borthwick and Stoneman too

They've approached Dougie Brown at Warwickshire regarding Varun Chopra.

 

[wayne entwhistle no9]

Talk on one of the Warwick messageboards are they can't afford to keep him as both Trott and Bell are back on the payroll and they have to make cuts to pay for them.

 

[scotch]

probably hoping borthwick gets an england contract and thereby england would be paying for borthwick to play for durham
