Only a fool would not play their 3 best bowlers, they are Robbo, Sealo & Kojak. Simple. I've never got the hype around Carson, I see him & think he's astonishingly average. I've seen 12 year old club bowlers turn it more. Often off the next strip but that's irrelevant. Coles to offer spin, our 3 best bowlers & Lambo & Sauce backing it up, & batting deep.
I presume we're gonna have the usual awful road at Hove all year long? Didn't Farbrace say he was gonna address that last year? Leaving a bit on didn't really work either did it.
Happy summer everybody, rain to start ain't it? And a hurricane, don't lose your sunhats.

Clearly Carson has a lot of doubters on this site, including me. However, it seems he’ll be given the opportunity to prove us wrong, so let’s hope he takes it. I am confident in his ability to bat at 8 and potentially even higher, so if he does get his bowling back on track he’ll be a major asset.

Exactly this, maybe dropping him will further dent his confidence. He'll probably bat 9 or 10 depending on selection and 1 below Robbo. Lets hope the groundstaff are busy mopping up now and we get to start on time. With our attack i fancy a bowl first. |

Oh. Gives the iPad more time to charge I guess. A light wind and sunshine burning through should assist the groundstaff. Half 12 seems a bit extreme. Go out every hour until then surely to see the progress. |

The weather forecast for this game has been rubbish for ages (rain was forecast for the first 2.5 days, with just Sunday afternoon being dry). The forecast has changed this morning to be sunny this afternoon, all of Saturday and Sunday. I didn't get to Hove at all last season, looks like I'll be heading down there this weekend!

Never been one to look at forecasts particularly long term ones. I shall be in Curry Corner this afternoon hopefully soaking up the rays with a 4 pack of Cider enjoying the most beautiful sport ever invented. Might avoid this board monday if we lose though :-) |

Matt Prior presents John Simpson with his cap, maybe relations have thawed.

Great to see Prior presenting the County Cap!
We now know what’s going on via Social Media & Website updates. Members/Supporters treated like we matter.
Shows times have changed following 7 years being ruled by one man with a warped agenda and I can’t wait! Win or lose I’ll be at Hove.

Prior's beef was with Andrew, first, and Filby second. Andrew has gone and
his feelings for Filby have simmered.
Great to see a former club keeper present the cap to a fellow gloveman.
