South North on Thursday (vs. Somerset)


Frustrating about live stream but credit to club for announcing it as soon as they could. Enjoy if you're there, couldn't go this year due to work commitments but always been a great day out, apart from last year...
 
to be expected really with a game in newcastle, Just out of curiosity though are there any clubs anywhere close to the standard of South North in county durham where this could have been played instead
Is that the reason they’re playing there or is it more this attempt to be a regional thing, “for the North” etc. Other counties ignore their boundaries too in this comp, Lancs at Sedbergh and Middlesex at Radlett for instance.

I’m torn between whether my dominant feeling is that this makes sense in getting cricket out to the people, or that it’s bad in that it turns the club into a regional franchise that undermines the principle of county cricket just like the you know what.
