I imagine so. It'll be my final one after nearly two years as I need to pass the baton on to a new kid on the block who can take us to the next level and compete with the Man City of the cricket world.

Applicants need to have a degree in meteorology, have sat in the Trapdoor on at least three occasions and to have a sound knowledge of the careers of cricketers ranging from Fred Swarbrook, Ashley Harvey -Walker and Colin Dredge to BR Lander, PW Romaines and PJ Berry.:D

Rules me out then :)
 
That pretty much went as expected.

With Somerset struggling it looks like Surrey will be champions today or tomorrow.

My recent black mark and being cautious of the Lyoness and Shari Lewis makes me wary of doing it . I will give my tuppence worth when at large but the waiting would be the hardest part. Maybe there’s someone out there up to date with the likes of Dudley Owen-Thomas, John Solanki, Billy Blenkiron, Eifion Jones, DL Greener and Norman Graham.

DL Greener could have turned his arm over for us against Surrey this week.

Unlike our attack of Chemar Holder, Bas de Leede and Colin Ackerman who are all true blue English :D

Our frontline attack consists of Raine,Potts and Coughlin who were all born in Sunderland.Wood and Stokes are also academy graduates..
Ackerman didn't bowl. If you're claiming Durham rely on overseas bowling recruits you're clearly extremely ignorant regarding Durham's bowling istory.

Taking the piss aren’t you? We’ve had two years of growth and improvement with a young squad. You’re like the Sir Alex Ferguson of the Cricket Forum! I might ask the mods to change your username to Fergus Alexson.
 
As a Yorkshire supporter, commiserations to your side, having to play "moneybags" Surrey with your best 4 bowlers all missing. You could well have beaten them with a full team out, or at least given them a decent game. Hopefully next season Durham or another county will knock them off their arrogant perch. Spend, spend, spend, on bringing class players in is all they do to build a team Foakes, Lawrence, Clark, Worrall, Roach, Sudharsan, Shakib.
