CC : Durham v Essex

[viccarlton]

I bailed out with 7 overs to go it was cold but anything over 350 I'm happy

I left at tea, had the County Stand been open I might have moved round into the relative warmth.

We will heading straight to the lower section of the family Stand to make sure we get the sun in the afternoon if it is still shining of course

I think this will be the plan of action for the Trapdoor Exiles once the sun disappears from the Don Robson at 2.30pm.

Durham sounds as bad as SAFC. Shocking what north east sports fans are served up given the passion we have for cricket and football.

It really boils my piss tbh. I feel like this sort of shit wouldn’t even be tried in other areas of the country, but it’s like the plebs in the north east can just be taken for granted.

It is an absolute shambles..im thinking if sacking it off today, having already paid for my membership that'll really show them eh?

Have written a complaint to this michael thorpe fella who is the customer service liason or whatever daft title they've gave him. Straight into the shredder no doubt.

Im thinking of just going to whitburn instead where it'll actually be warm

The rest of your post as you say was a shambles no announcement about the stands being closed. Apparently it was due to a couple of the glass panels dropping out during one of the storms and they have not got round to do any repairs yet

If that is the case, and it wouldn't suprise me in the slightest if it is, then that is a disgrace and simply illustrates the club's contempt towards its red ball cricket supporters.

Doesn't look too bad today

Yes they've posted it's open today, but not the upper

Seen a bit of sense at last

Not sure how it played yesterday but looks like the balls keeping low here on 3 or 4 occasions already.

"Sorry, health and safety issue, hope to have the upper tier open for future games, hope it's rectified as soon as possible"

A lot of hope, they've only had the entire off season. Each year we lose one more stand, we'll have to bring our own chairs within a few years at this rate.

FFS County Durham Upper is my seat of preference
