Durham receive 2 point penalty in RLC

I doubt very much that when Yorkshire receive punishment, it will be nothing that yorkshires Colin graves decreed was fair to give to durham

that to me, was a scandal, as he clearly set out to destroy Durham, to the benefit of his own club. Test matches etc, our best players having to leave

id put a lot of money on a fine that will be seen as a sop
Yes but Graves and his puppet Harrison are now gone.It was solely Graves who was instrumental in Durham sanctions and as having an interest because of financial investment in Yorkshire should have been nowhere near the process. However,2 wrongs don't make a right,the Yorkshire side has yet to be heard. And ECB are as guilty as anyone,Harrison again, for rebuffing Yorkshire 's request for guidance and assistance on the issue.

If you feel like that, nothing further to add.
 
Not like the club to withhold information from the members mind.🤔

I said 2 weeks ago on here they are withholding lots of information, as you yourself are fully aware of.

It's very easy to communicate in 2022, unfortunately Durham are still in the 1990s in that department which is a shame given the resources/technologies available.

Whilst I'm frustrated at this deduction and the double standards by the ECB, it's evident the club need to get their act together as this is pretty embarrassing, more so they have kept it from members who are paying good money to attend games.

As you know you attended the members forum, the club said they wanted to be open and honest with us. Since then (about 2 and a half weeks?) it took a BBC reporter to tell us about several injuries, they didn't announce any squad news for the Surrey game, they haven't officially told us about Eckersley and they have kept this from us until they had no option but to release a statement after a number of offences.

It's basic stuff and the club look very amateurish when word gets out before they announce things officially.

Judging by events since the members forum it now appears North was talking as much bullshit as Franklin....if that is actually possible.:D
 
As GM no1 correctly states the communication from the Club remains very questionable. Whilst the ECB continue to enjoy hamnering us while Yorkshire to date have had no relegations or points deductions for bringing the entire ethics of the game into disrepute, the Club had recieved warnings we were oblivious to and we now lose the only 2 pts we have accumulated.
As Patterson White once again rips out our middle order we are looking like being in the bottom 3 in all competitions this season with a total of four wins to our name.
Surely a time when communication from the Club should be of paramount importance ..... clearly not.

It's very basic stuff.

For example;

It's currently 1.34pm with 12 overs to go in the game and the latest tweet on Durham twitter is;
