DNECL - Durham & North East Cricket League 2021

[ac arundez]

Shaping up to be a corker of a season after some shock results in Division 1 and 2 yesterday!

Still have Brandon down as favourites for Div 1 personally but a brilliant win for Esh on Saturday. Seaham Park failed to capitalise too and they went down to a big defeat at Marsden which would’ve been probably the shock result of the day. Wide open now.

Or dealing with too many knackers who can’t just enjoy a game of cricket and have disciplinary issues but that’s a different story

What's the rules in division 5 and 6? Are you allowed to bowl 10 overs in a 40 over game?

I reckon your allowed to bowl 40 overs in a 40 over game

Division 4 is shaping up to be competitive. With East Rainton, Coundon, Ryhope and Belmont all vying for the title. Turning into a good competitive division.

Yes allowed 10 overs per bowler in 5 & 6. Crazy rule

Just been told Horden 2nd team have folded

 

[brandon]

Just been told Horden 2nd team have folded

It’s a shame but no real surprise.

Do a bit of work over in Horden and there’s a lot of deprivation and a lot of ‘evacuees’ over there, tend to get the feeling that has contributed to the general disinterest in cricket and in community amongst the people now living there.

Heard on grapevine they're hoping to reform next season I the bottom division. Fingers crossed.

Lived there 33 years was great place to live, play sport and night out,community spirited and great cricket club.

Very different now by all accounts

[brandon]

Mainsforth were meant to host Brandon tonight in a Second XI cup semi final but no umpires turned up

Did they just stand themselves then? Or just go home?

Either no ones told the secretary or its slipped through the net by the sounds of it.

They manage to play the game then or did it get moved? We were wanting to see who we were playing in the final!

 

[spitfire]

Where did Langley Park end up playing their fixtures in the end, or have they gotten their ground back?

Think it’s getting rearranged.

Moved into Bearparks old ground and became Langley Park and Bearpark CC

Moved into Bearparks old ground and became Langley Park and Bearpark CC

What happened to their old ground, I take it its still being used for some purpose. It had a canny bar and facilities last time I was in.

 

[Sea to Shining Sea]

What happened to their old ground, I take it its still being used for some purpose. It had a canny bar and facilities last time I was in.

The bar owner also owned the ground (I think) and has very little interest in cricket. He runs another bar on a cricket ground that no longer has cricket on it too.
