That's hardly the point. They shouldn't have been given the remotest chance. If we've knocked up 275 for 4 in ¾ of a day that could be chicken feed if they get going.

So be it. I will still support colly's chase of 12 points for the expense of 3
What was the point?

Depends how much of a long shot it is really. Despite the odd big win gamblers always lose in the long run.
Yorkshire wouldn't deserve it. 60 behind on 1st innings and only taking 14 wickets in the match. Who's played all the cricket? Why waste all the effort? Wins and losses count as tiebreakers at the end of the season too.
Have they seen a weather forecast?

I agree with this too, if a team scores 300+ on Day 4, Innings 4, then you've got to hold your hands up. What Colly has done is excellent IMO, go for 16 points at the expense of losing 3.
We could have batted for another hour or so today but that would mean they'd need 400 or so in about 70-80 overs and it would just become one big blockathon. Atleast this way it puts the thought in their head to play some proper cricket shots, giving more chance of edges and the like. We'll also get the chance of over twenty overs with a second new ball (if it doesn't rain and if needed).
Sun is out in DH7 now, I'm hoping the rain is just a morning thing which doesn't hinder play and which gives a nice bit of moisture to the pitch to assist our seamers!
Ha'way Durham!

Two sessions would be enough for Yorks to win the game if they went for it and didn't lose wkts in batches, whereas Durham might need three sessions if Yorks decide to put the wood up. Once again, the first hours play could be vital in deciding how this game turns out.
Excellent declaration by Colly.

150 runs per session and 5 an over in these conditions?

The sun is forecast from lunchtime on and we've already seen how flat this wicket is when the suns out.
As I said, IF Yorks decide to go for it, after all they've only got 3 points to lose as well, and IF they have wkts in hand, it's a getable score.
A lot will decide if the opening hour's play will suit our bowlers more than it will their batters.

Cracking lad. Batted and bowled well in this game. I was talking with his Mam and Dad yesterday who are up watching the game. Lovely people.

Brilliant, I think Yorkshire will already have any thoughts about the win wiped away
