Not sure why Gay took that single so that Parky could face 4 balls from Leach

Horrible pitch and worse performance

A very poor day for Durham, got back in it to a degree and then cant bat three overs without another 2 wickets gone. More than half our top batsmen have registeted ducks today.
All over by lunch tomorrow I fear.

Have we ever had a game end before lunch on the second day?

Especially as the likes of Yorkshire and Worcestershire seem to be showing some fight.
I’d sack Marcus North at the end of the season regardless of division. Scattergun shite.

Because that’s his job, as nightwatchman.
Durham should’ve opened with the bowlers. Madness seeing Lees and Gay walk out there.

Don’t worry lads with games restructured there is a very strong likelihood of no relegation.
It’s now time to count the penalty misses in lasses football

That's the worrying issue. Both North and Bostock can do as they please with no accountability to our faceless board none of whom have any cricketing pedigree. Barring Bob Jackson if he's still on the board.

Fair enough but surely Gay had a better chance of surviving a Leach over than Parky....it was almost like we gave them another wicket

22 wickets on Day 1 is a total farce. I imagine Somerset have produced a minefield of a wicket in order to force a result with this useless Kookaburra ball. The fact that we’re already facing the end of the barrel at the end of day 1 is a joke. 100+ runs behind and already 2 wickets down. A total waste of time for the team who travel down, the supporters who have spent money to travel to and watch the game.

Just an opinion but I cannot stand Bostock whose only concern is filthy lucre as a foremost priority
I might be wrong but wasn’t Durham reconstructed as a community interest company
As such the interests of the community must surely take priority

Bostock will end up working for ECB. North is lucky not to be a Deliveroo rider.

Think there's more chance of seeing the ex - Genesis drummer/singer at the Riverside than his namesake ie our Chairman.
North should have got his cards and coppers at the same time as Franklin. Sadly it seems the club couldn't afford it.

Bostock was in line for the top job there but lost out in the end.
