Yorkshire 203 and 127-3
Lancs 252

As per usual after a good start Lancashire failed to build on it had the strange Ines 27-3 but Ballance and the double barrel Cadmore getting the Yorkist into a good position. Interesting game building up

[themaclad]

Lancs chasing 230 are 105-7

[Lord Snooty]

Squeaky bum time! Losers go down?

[themaclad]

We've gone almost utterly woeful batting for most of the season on the plus side we have 10 left arm spinners

[themaclad]

Hants 187 all out still not relegated

[themaclad]

Lancashire 111-4 still life in the corpse

[themaclad]

Relegated

[themaclad]

Won by 8 wickets down on less games won than Notts we were docked a point for a slow over rate against Yorks

[themaclad]

Brown, Kerrigan and Lilley all leave the club, for Kerrigan still think his one test match killed his career

I see lord David of bumbles has suggest a change in the English cricket season. Not too dissimilar to what I've mentioned in regards to the County championship being three tiers of 6, putting it in par with the rest of the world

Only difference I'd have is making the 50 over Cup more like the champions league in football. Allow some of the minor counties in. A straight knockout system could be counter productive as you'd want as a national selector, you're best white ball players, having more than one game, especially if they're not test players and in some cases don't play much red ball County games. One freak result and you could go into a series where a player say David Willey at Yorks might have played one game in two months or more depending on where t20 fits in. The other thing is more and more players are signing white ball contracts, so make it worthwhile for the counties
