Good effort to take it to the last ball but in reality we were always behind in the game .... the only difference between the teams .. they ran 2s ... we didnt !

Totally agree with this

Really annoys me. 2s wins you games at Durham, always will

Now I’ve calmed down we bowled well and have a really good attack

As usual in this format it’s the batting

Having to wait for all the Lancs players and staff to get back to the indoor nets changing rooms.

Utter shambles that. Couldn't turn left as that was blocked off for the students who turned up and couldn't turn right because of the above. Thought it was going to come to blows between one Durham supporter and one of the non Durham stewards.

On the subject of the students - apparantly there was 12 buses last year and only four this time round.

Saw this at half time too. The stewards held people back for about 10 mins. Madness

Yeah. I had planned to pop round the Don Robson to get a bite to eat but gave it up as a bad job after being 'detained' for 10 mins while a couple of stragglers from the first match made their way back to the Indoor Nets.

Daft having the student game on a Sunday like.

But the away dressing room thing needs looked at immediately for the double headers. Durham fans being inconvenienced so the lasses team get a better dressing room for a game that finished 3 hours prior is utterly daft.
 
It was a woman's Mercedes. She had parked pointing away from the ground so the rear windscreen was vulnerable. It hit slap bang in the middle of the screen. She was on the blower when I looked across.

Not entirely sure why they need 9/10 security staff. 3 or 4 that were in front of the stand, permanently looking at them and 5/6 in the stand itself.

They've got Bohannon to thank for that. He's a right flyer between the wickets and was really pushing the others to go for the twos.

Simple fact is they shouldn't be staging mixed double headers until the 2nd set of changing rooms are complete. Issue could have been avoided by women using the indoor nets changing rooms when there wouldn't have been a crowd issue.
