Even by the standards of Sussex collapses that was special. Absolutely cruising. Batting line uo was appalling, no depth at all. We needed 4.5 an over for 6 overs with 8 wickets in hand. One of the most incompetent chases ive ever seen.

The major issue is no senior promo that lower middle order. Gloucestershire had Phillips who steadied their batting. If we had had someone with big game experience coming in 7/8 (e.g. Chris Jordan) he could have calmed things down, taken responsibility and likely got us over the line. Instead we had a bunch of kids and bowlers who can’t bat swinging at everything.

That is a bit generous. Even club players would have done better than our lot tonight. Experience doesn't matter if they have zero brain cells which nobody seemed to.

Just got home- that was feckin shocking.

Some of those players should be nowhere near the first team.

Tom Haines not playing is mystifying, though have it on good authority he will be playing in a couple of games soon. Wright is likely to be out for some time….

Can I be cheeky and ask how much it was to get in tonight?

Just seen the scorecard, unbelievable.

What a shambles this club is right now.

It’s £30 match-by-match.

No cheaper section which is a mistake.

Looked like lots of empty seats again.

aren't they just trying to emulate England of the past years?

Sussex are skint and so trying to give yoof a chance.

Not working out so far, is it?

Sure as hell not going to get an increase in revenue playing like that or indeed playing colts/club cricketers.

Serious questions need to asked of the ties running this shambles.

Back to the 4 day game and yet another short term loan signing. This time the promising up and coming , Jack Brooks, just 38 years old, has joined us for 2 games.
We're currently 70-2 at Glamorgan
