Spenny 1sts at home to Cockerton 1sts, best 2 sides in the division go toe-to-toe. Captain Trundler leading the 2nds at Oxbridge (the place in Eaglescliffe, not the posh universities).
First Team are dark horses for the title!

That does not sound great re Tantobie. Do they only have one team now?
I worry for Division 2 of the NEDCL. It's looking very fragile.
Tantobie are struggling for players and we played a team from Beamish who only had 8 players last year.
As a 2nd teamer myself it makes it all the more important that we (Hunwick) stay up this season.
No disrespect to the NEDCL but as a club who can regularly turn out 11 in the 2nd XI, we obviously want to be playing teams who can do so regularly too. I think only Kimblesworth, Burnhope, Simonside and Kibblesworth can do that.

Sima dropped to one team a couple of years ago, kept us going in reality.

That's where I'll beHad hoped to play my first game of the season tomorrow - but we've got no game
Looking forward to watching a bit cricket though, firsts are at Castle Eden.
Cracking game of cricket at the Eden today.
Brandon 240-9dec
Castle Eden 209-9 (60 overs)
Brandon winning draw.
Was talking to a couple of the Castle Eden lads, say their first aim is to stay up - personally feel they'll achieve that quite easily. Honestly expect them to be top half come September.

Yes mate just one team. Fingers crossed for them, one of my favourite little clubs too.

They looked in poor shape when I saw them at nets at The Riverside, only had 4 or 5 there. A few years ago they had 2 teams and it was like Sabina Park up there, David Brown sailing them past the snot box at 80mph.
Spenny 1sts tied at home to Cockerton 1sts in a 'thriller' at the Spennydome. 2nds lost at C Division title favourites Oxbridge by 91 runs, too many dropped catches, Ageing All-Rounder 19 runs, 2 wickets and a catch (and aching legs)!

Rainton firsts lost to Belmont. Seconds beat Belmont 2s by one wicket in the last over. Both kitchings at the crease too. The second team game was played in brilliant spirit.

You only got a chance cos I fucked it up, but your Dad couldn't have scored the winning runs without you there

Haha you didn't mate. With you and C Henderson we wouldn't have got back into the game. We were 70 runs behind on the run rate at one stage.

I think im right in saying, Tantobie had two Saturday teams and a hlscl team on a sundat too as recently as 2014

Alas no longer mate. As of today, Ive retired from all first team cricket. At the age of 37, its time to give younger lads a chance.
