REMF Cricket - Summer 2006

[Kinky Gerbil]

I was talking about Ditchling ground. NOT ST JAMES!

Ditchling play at Ditchling Rec do they not?

Yes they do.

 

[Marc]

this sounds quality, probably too late so put me down as a sub or something

 

[Barrel of Fun]

Maybe we could get Sussex CCC to donate some balls or a scorebook.....They might be keen to get involved. Of course, they might not

I wonder if they will lend us the county ground for the day

 

[Mustela Furo]

if you need a wicket-keeper then I may be available dependent on the date

 

[Barrel of Fun]

I am sure it is a case of the more the merrier and perhaps we could have rolling subs on the field etc. Maybe even two shorter games if the demand is great.

Any progress with this?

 

[Basil Fawlty]

My dad has a scorebook what we could use.

Hadlee and I might be able to perform a double act!!

Is this some kind of saucy between innings entertainment you are planning?


Good work on the scorebook Kev. If this is going to be an annual event perhaps we should get a new one and keep a record of the games.

Something like that. It involves a giant marrow and two tins of creamy custard!!

And who said Cricket is a dull sport!!

 

[Hatterlovesbrighton]

I could probably get you a pitch at Seaford. Lot easier to get to that Ditchling and you can all get pissed and then get the train back to Brighton (and even East Croydon). Would only be avialble on Sundays but a pretty good pitch.

 

[Da Man Clay]

Any news on this yet?

I was of course the Derek Randall/Jonty Rhodes of the team. For the younger posters read Paul Collingwood.

Hadlee. I doubt I'd make the grade anymore.

 

[Barrel of Fun]

Maybe if there is not much interest from the Palarse end we could host a mini Twenty20 tournament. I am sure we could rustle together 4 teams of 8(??) players or so....

 

[Da Man Clay]

Yeah I think we could. Should do something cricket related for the REMF. Say £80 entry per team? Thats only a tenner each.

Plus if we can get people to come along and watch we can make some money from a BBQ and drinks etc.

Where would the money go? To a cricket team in a deprived part of the globe or focus it on the current projects?

Great - no ones interested in my offer to play - bet I get landed with buttering hot dog buns or something...
