A famous film with a great line about hope.
hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things, and no good thing ever dies!
Choose to believe!

Maybe Charlie Tear could play a lead role in our T20 team after scoring an unbeaten 56 as an opener in his one day debut for Scotland today. Admittedly it was only against the UAE but I’ll take any encouragement we can find!

Baloney or the truth, i love how you use wikipedia in all your articles now and have the audacity to say im speaking baloney. As you know anyway, if we did have all those white ball players we'd have to hugely sacrifice the red ball and interestingly youve used the red ball as your benchmark for success in the past, you can only be deemed successful in your eyes with consistent div 1 status, now you backtrack and say the blast is the must and its only been 2 seasons since we saw a QF. Very confused but you confuse yourself often just to counter anything i say. My facts come from speaking to the CEO come from speaking to important people in the club, yours my friend comes from wikipedia. Farby was very pleased yesterday his beloved Fulham beat us, he disagrees with you that this side has no chance of reaching finals day too by the way. What a good man he is ⚫️⚪️ |

Admittedly it was only against the UAE but I’ll take any encouragement we can find! Our squad is full exciting young talent, the problem we have is not all of them are ready for the rigours of a full county season so we need a bit more depth and experience. But with that not being added we have to throw all our support behind these lads. |

lab1, Wikipedia is a non-profit organisation, so similar to Sussex CCC. I think we'll improve on 3 competitions results last year.So, going from 9th in the Metro One Day Group B qualifying table to 8th is certainly possible. Moving from 6th to 5th in the T20 Blast Southern Qualifying table is also quite possible. Yet, getting Division 2 promotion (3rd to 2nd) is a noble call. I await with bated breath. Meanwhile, I reckon you’ll need to swap your rose-tinted spectacles for a new pair soon. They must be worn down to the bridge.  |

Not rose tinted, im very objective, when criticism is deserved I always say it. I just will never want my team to lose because it fits into my argument unlike some people on both boards! |

I admire your optimism in an increasingly cynical and jaded world.
If Sussex gain promotion to Division 1 this season, I'll personally
give you a bottle of champagne. You will have deserved it.
Please Forum take note.

Please Forum take note. Indeed, knocked by a lot of fake news on various platforms. Similar to Matt Prior and Alan Wells on social media assuring us that Sussex are in a total mess and others will follow Orr out the door this close season. As suspected by me it was nonsense but the words they used were designed to create panic and anger amongst fans. This is we are in the middle of a cynical and divided world. Ill gladly accept your Champers when we achieve promotion and maybe Farby will allow us to sip it oout of the Div 2 Winners trophy! |

Just bear in mind, this offer is only valid for one year and can’t be redeemed in 2034 😄 |

Well they were spot on that we are in a mess And they aren’t the only ones who were wrong, weren't you telling us all off season that we were going to have a good winter of recruitment? |

Please Forum take note. That’s a generous wager. If Robinson is fit and not selected for England , he could win us the title on his own. |

He is mate, a bit of irony involved. We watched the game and it was rather infuriating him cheering on Fulham!! |

No wager, he's rewarding me for my consistently positive outlook and his reward will be a big fat i told you so if we dont gain promotion :-) |
