Thats rather unkind. I’m sure the lad’s bowling is not THAT bad.I'm a Lewes Priory member and I can confirm that we lose a lot of balls over that boundary. I shudder to think how many we'd lose if Fignon's Ponytail's lad was still playing for us.
When Frankie hit the ball it stayed hit.
Well, as much as I enjoyed reading that, I was wanting it to end before another catastrophe befell you all.
Quite a tale of injury woe. I didn’t know RDZ coached a cricket team
Absolute shocker for me this week. Came in at 5, first ball cut straight into the hands of point. First golden duck since I was 15.
Just had a 9am catch up call with my boss who still plays 1st team in north Lancs at age 54, though probably shouldn’t.
To be honest, I am astonished two days on, that I am not in more pain now than I am. My right shoulder needed a liberal application of deep heat today, but I can walk, and put my own socks on, so that's pretty good!

Sounds very familiar, congratulations on the win,

You know what, I might just give my comeback a miss and just follow you lot
That sounds horrendous. Having not ever been self-employed, I wonder what the impact is to this? I'm assuming there's a requirement to have some sort of insurance in place in case of incidents like this?Nasty postscript to this
The lad who suffered the collision, has just let us know the outcome.
Segond fracture of the (top of the) shin bone, ACL rupture and probable meniscus tear.
Looking at best part of a YEAR of rehab, and crutches for a minimum of 6 weeks after any operation (which they can't even plan until the swelling goes down).
Poor lad is a self-employed electrician, too
We had a terrible incident a couple of years back with an on field collision. Both hospitalised with some pretty awful injuries.Nasty postscript to this

I know from non-league football that it is not too uncommon for a club to organise fundraisers (or publicise an appeal) to help pay for the medical costs of a part-time footballer who has suffered a significant injury. One such example that springs to mind is that of former Albion academy player Rhyle Ovenden, who suffered an ACL injury while playing for Ashford United and required surgery that cost £16,000 -
